Organometallic compounds are widely used in almost all sectors of industry. as a result of emissions from natural and anthropogenic sources they are released to the environment, where they undergo a variety of conversions and interactions. some organometallic compounds exhibit high toxicity. organometallic compounds of mercury, tin, lead, selenium and arsenic are among the most common and hazar...

The ICEBAMO meetings aim to facilitate interdisciplinary discussion on environmental and biological aspects of main-group organometals. Previous meetings in Padua (1986 and 1991) and Bordeaux (1994) have brought together researchers from the fields of toxicology, environmental sciences, analytical chemistry, biochemistry, and synthetic organometallic chemistry. ICEBAMO 98 in Odense will provide...

Introduction Conclusions References

A recent suggestion, that transition metal complexes of unsaturated ligands can be regarded as cruciconjugated, is explored by studies of various complexes of Fe(II), the aromaticity of the resulting i systems being analyzed in terms of PMO theory. This approach is also applied to porphyrin. The conclusions are supported by preliminary SCF and MNDO calculations.
