[eBook] [PDF] For Redox Active Ligands Concepts and Catalysis 1st Edition By Desage-El Murr Marine

The book is divided into three parts, devoted to introduction and concepts, applications, and case studies. After the introduction on key concepts related to the field, and the different types of ligands and complexes in which ligand-centered redox activity is commonly observed, mechanistic and computational studies are described. The second part focuses on catalytic applications of redox-active complexes, including examples from radical transformations, coordination chemistry and organic synthesis. Finally, case studies of redox-active guanidine ligands, and of lanthanides and actinides are presented.

Other specific sample topics covered include:

• An overview of the electronic features of redox-active ligands, covering their historical perspective and biological background
• The versatility and mode of action of redox-active ligands, which sets them apart from more classic and tunable ligands such as phosphines or N-heterocyclic carbenes
• Preparation and catalytic applications of complexes of stable N-aryl radicals
• Metal complexes with redox-active ligands in H⁺/e^–transfer transformations

By providing up-to-date information on important concepts and applications, Redox-Active Ligands is an essential reading for researchers working in organometallic and coordination chemistry, catalysis, organic synthesis, and (bio)inorganic chemistry, as well as newcomers to the field.
