Controlled coordination in vanadium(V) dimethylhydrazido compounds

Spin state switching in iron coordination compounds

The article deals with coordination compounds of iron(II) that may exhibit thermally induced spin transition, known as spin crossover, depending on the nature of the coordinating ligand sphere. Spin transition in such compounds also occurs under pressure and irradiation with light. The spin states involved have different magnetic and optical properties suitable for their detection and character...

Organozinc Coordination Chemistry and Catalytic Effects of Organozinc Coordination Compounds

A review of the present state of organozinc coordination chemistry. with special emphasis on compounds of the type RZnX is given. Their preparation as well as some factors determining their structure and stability are discussed. Certain organozinc coordination compounds have been found to be effective catalysts for cyclo-oligomerization and polymerization reactions. in particular of oxygen-cont...

Photochemistry of Transition Metal Coordination Compounds

Magnetism, Bonding and Structure of Coordination Compounds

INTRODUCTION It is not only timely, for the reasons discussed below, to provide a survey of the use of magnetic susceptibility measurements for the study :of complex compounds, but also fitting that the subject should be discussed in a country whose scientists have made so many outstanding contributions to quantum mechanics in general and spectroscopy and magnetism in particular. I pay a specia...

Isomers in the Chemistry of Germanium Coordination Compounds

The coordination chemistry of germanium covers quite bulk fields, as shown by a survey covering the crystallographic and structural data of over two hundred examples. About ten percent of those complexes exist as distortion isomers and are summarised. These are discussed in terms of the coordination around the germanium(I), germanium(II) and germanium(IV) atoms, and correlations are drawn betwe...
