Title: High-energy processes in organometallic chemistry

Book ·
OSTI ID:5308652

This book, which was developed from a symposium sponsored by the division of inorganic chemistry at the 192nd meeting of the American Chemical Society, Anaheim, CA, is composed of 19 chapters and author and subject indexes. It is written by academic and industrial researchers who are currently very active in high-energy processes in organometallic chemistry. The first chapter gives a historical background to the development of high-energy processes, which started as early as 1929, by F.A. Paneth. Some of the chapters discuss different aspects of high-energy processes, from current studies in the gas phase of the organometallic chemistry to the study of photochemical reactions and the investigation of some highly reactive intermediates and metal powders. The remaining chapters discuss some techniques and applications in high-energy processes involving infrared spectroscopy for examining the structure and behavior of intermediates involved in organometallic chemistry, electron spin resonance spectroscopy in the study of radiolysis of transition-metal compounds, ultrasonic waves for heterogeneous reactions, electrochemiluminescence of organometallics and finally plasma, and ion and electron beams for synthesis and modification of inorganic systems.
