-Journal of Chemical Education This newly available paperbound edition of Inorganic Electronic Structure and Spectroscopy includes all the material from the original clothbound edition published in 1999. Consisting of articles contributed by outstanding scientists from around the world, Volume II, Applications and Case Studies represents the state of the art in this field, written in a style accessible to the well-read senior undergraduate, and yet still of superior value to the senior researcher. The second of a two-volume set, Volume II explores various compounds of interest in inorganic chemistry and describes their electronic structures from the perspective of spectroscopic studies. Areas discussed include: * Bioinorganic Spectroscopy * Mixed Valence * Multiple Metal-Metal Bonds * Transition Metal Nitrosyls * Electronic Structure of Heme Sites * Spin Transition in Iron (II) Compounds * Neutron and Optical Spectra of Magnetically Ordered Crystals This work assumes a basic understanding of quantum chemistry and group theory. Although written by multiple contributors, the editors' holistic approach to the manuscript has ensured a uniform presentation. Booknews This two-volume text provides up-to-date coverage of the key spectroscopic and electronic structure methods. It also develops their application and defines their impact on a number of important topics in inorganic chemistry. Volume I (15406-7), 11 contributions, presents the different spectroscopic methods and levels of electronic structure calculations for transition metal systems. Volume II (32682-8), 11 contributions, discusses key topics in inorganic chemistry where electronic structure and spectroscopy have had a huge impact (bioinorganic chemistry, electron transfer, mixed valence compounds, electrochemistry, and photochemistry and photophysics). It also presents case studies of major classes of inorganic compounds (metal-metal bonds, metal carbonyls and metallocenes, metal nitrosyls, heme sites, spin crossover compounds and magnetic materials). Edited by Solomon (chemistry, Stanford U.) and Lever (chemistry, York U.) Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
