Progress in Inorganic Chemistry, Volume 59

by Kenneth D. Karlin (Editor)

Overview

This series provides inorganic chemists and materials scientists with a forum for critical, authoritative evaluations of advances in every area of the discipline. Volume 59 continues to report recent advances with a significant, up-to-date selection of contributions by internationally-recognized researchers.

The chapters of this volume are devoted to the following topics:
• Iron Catalysis in Synthetic Chemistry
• A New Paradigm for Photodynamic Therapy Drug Design: Multifunctional, Supramolecular DNA Photomodification Agents Featuring Ru(II)/Os(II) Light Absorbers Coupled to Pt(II) or Rh(III) Bioactive Sites
• Selective Binding of Zn2+ Complexes to Non-Canonical Thymine or Uracil in DNA or RNA.
• Progress Toward the Electrocatalytic Production of Liquid Fuels from Carbon Dioxide
• Monomeric Dinitrosyl Iron Complexes: Synthesis and Reactivity
• Interactions of Nitrosoalkanes/arenes, Nitrosamines, Nitrosothiols, and Alkyl Nitrites with Metals
• Aminopyridine Iron and Manganese Complexes as Molecular Catalysts for Challenging Oxidative Transformations

About the Author

Kenneth D. Karlin, PhD, is the Ira Remsen Professor of Chemistry at Johns Hopkins University. He received his PhD from Columbia University. Dr. Karlin’s bioinorganic research focuses on coordination chemistry relevant to biological and environmental processes, involving copper or heme (porphyrin-iron) complexes. Dr. Karlin’s main approach involves synthetic modeling, i.e. biomimetic chemistry. He is the winner of the prestigous F. Albert Cotton Award in Synthetic Inorganic Chemistry and the Sierra Nevada Distinguished Chemist Award, both awarded in 2009.

What People are Saying About This

From the Publisher

"...makes one realize that the discipline of inorganic chemistry is remarkably broad and new fields are continually being created...an important and valuable addition to the series." (Journal of the American Chemical Society, September 28, 2005)

Editorial Reviews

Both an index of the most influential and current research being done in inorganic chemistry, and a working reference featuring the work of internationally renowned chemists. Volume 42 contains five papers: Slow Proton-Transfer Reactions in Organometallic and Bioinorganic Chemistry, by K.W. Kramarz and J.R. Norton; Higher Oligopyridines as a Structural Motif in Metallosupramolecular Chemistry, by E.C. Constable; Ternary Transition Metal Sulfides, by B.W. Eichhorn; Organoamido Complexes of the Transition Metals, by D.E. Wigley; and Palladium Complex Catalyzed Oxidation Reactions, by A. Heumann, K.J. Jens, and M. Reglier. Includes a subject index to this volume and a cumulative author (with title) index for volumes 1-42. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
