The field of Bioinorganic Chemistry has grown significantly in recent years; now one of the major sub-disciplines of Inorganic Chemistry, it has also pervaded other areas of the life sciences due to its highly interdisciplinary nature. Bioinorganic Chemistry: Inorganic Elements in the Chemistry of Life, Second Edition provides a detailed introduction to the role of inorganic elements in biology, taking a systematic element-by-element approach to the topic. The second edition of this classic text has been fully revised and updated to include new structure information, emerging developments in the field, and an increased focus on medical applications of inorganic compounds. New topics have bee...
The first comprehensive textbook on the timely and rapidly developing topic of inorganic porous materials This is the first textbook to completely cover a broad range of inorganic porous materials. It introduces the reader to the development of functional porous inorganic materials, from the synthetic zeolites in the 50’s, to today’s hybrid materials such as metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), covalent organic frameworks (COFs) and related networks. It also provides the necessary background to understand how porous materials are organized, characterized, and applied in adsorption, catalysis, and many other domains. Additionally, the book explains characterization and application from the ma...
The Organometallic Chemistry of N-heterocyclic Carbenes describes various aspects of N-heterocyclic Carbenes (NHCs) and their transition metal complexes at an entry level suitable for advanced undergraduate students and above. The book starts with a historical overview on the quest for carbenes and their complexes. Subsequently, unique properties, reactivities and nomenclature of the four classical NHCs derived from imidazoline, imidazole, benzimidazole and 1,2,4-triazole are elaborated. General and historically relevant synthetic aspects for NHCs, their precursors and complexes are then explained. The book continues with coverage on the preparation and characteristics of selected NHC comple...
LANTHANIDE AND ACTINIDE CHEMISTRY Lanthanides and actinides, also known as “f elements,” are a group of metals which share certain important properties and aspects of electronic structure. They have a huge range of applications in the production of electronic devices, magnets, superconductors, fuel cells, sensors, and more. The cursory treatment of these important metals in most inorganic chemistry textbooks makes a book-length treatment essential. Since 2006, Lanthanide and Actinide Chemistry has met this need with a thorough, accessible overview. With in-depth accounts of the lanthanides, actinides, and transactinides, this book is ideal for both undergraduate and postgraduate students...

Whenever nature has a difficult task to perform it can be expected that a metal ion or a cluster of such ions is employed. Metal ions are indispensable for the integrity of biological structures and the catalysis of biological reactions. Knowledge about their mode of action, their uptake in the cell, their handling and their storage is important for the development of new pharmaceuticals. This book summarizes latest results of interdisciplinary research on several universities.

Das Chemische Praktikum stellt für Studierende der Medizin und der Zahnmedizin einen wichtigen Abschnitt in ihrer vorklinischen Ausbildung dar. In ihm werden praktische Kenntnisse über experimentelles Arbeiten vermittelt. Die Versuche umfassen chemische Umsetzungen und analytische Verfahren, die die Grundlagen biochemischer und physiologischer Laborarbeiten bilden. Gleichzeitig führt die praktische Beschäftigung mit der Chemie auch zur Vertiefung der in Vorlesungen und Übungen erarbeiteten theoretischen Kenntnisse. In 65 Aufgaben an 11 Kurstagen werden Gesetze und Modellvorstellungen der Chemie exemplarisch erarbeitet. Dabei wird auch auf den sicheren Umgang mit Gefahrstoffen und deren Entsorgung aus der Sicht der Gefahrstoffverordnung und des Umweltschutzes eingegangen. In der vierten Auflage wurden einzelne Textkorrekturen vorgenommen sowie die Hinweise (Einstufung und Kennzeichnung) zu Gefahrstoffen und das Kapitel "Umgang mit Gefahrstoffen" erneut den geänderten Vorschriften angepaßt. Die R- und S-Sätze wurden gemäß der Richtlinie 98/99/EG ergänzt.
