Progress in Inorganic Chemistry

This series provides inorganic chemists and materials scientists
with a forum for critical, authoritative evaluations of advances in
every area of the discipline. Volume 58 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:

• Tris(dithiolene) Chemistry: A Golden Jubilee

• How to find an HNO needle in a (bio)-chemical
  Haystack

• Photoactive Metal Nitrosyl and Carbonyl Complexes Derived
  from Designed Auxiliary Ligands: An Emerging Class of
  Photochemotherapeutics

• Metal--Metal Bond-Containing Complexes as Catalysts for
  C--H Functionalization Iron Catalysis in Synthetic Chemistry

• Reactive Transition Metal Nitride Complexes

Suitable for inorganic chemists and materials scientists in
academia, government, and industries including pharmaceutical, fine
chemical, biotech, and agricultural.

Autorentext

Kenneth D. Karlin 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
