Cage Hydrocarbons

Informationen zum Autor GEORGE A. OLAH, PhD, - 1927-2017 - was awarded the 1994 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his work in hydrocarbon chemistry. Professor Olah was Director of the Loker Hydrocarbon Research Institute at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles. His research focused on the generation and reactivity of carbocations via superacids. Klappentext Inspired by a symposium held at the University of Southern California, March 1988, dedicated to Paul von R. Schleyer. Contributors examine the role of hypercarbons'' in several areas of chemistry, systematically covering the multicenter bonding of hypercarbons'' relative to the chemistry of main group elements, organometallics, cluster chemistry, carbocations, and hydrocarbon chemistry.

Inspired by a symposium held at the University of Southern California, March 1988, dedicated to Paul von R. Schleyer. Contributors examine the role of hypercarbons'' in several areas of chemistry, systematically covering the multicenter bonding of hypercarbons'' relative to the chemistry of main group elements, organometallics, cluster chemistry, carbocations, and hydrocarbon chemistry.
