Lanthanide and Actinide Chemistry. Inorganic Chemistry: A Textbook Series
Description:
Inorganic Chemistry Advanced Textbook
"This Series reflects the pivotal role of modern inorganic and physical chemistry in a whole range of
emerging areas, such as materials chemistry, green chemistry and bioinorganic chemistry, as well as
providing a solid grounding in established areas such as solid state chemistry, coordination chemistry, main
group chemistry and physical inorganic chemistry."
Lanthanide and Actinide Chemistry, Simon Cotton, Uppingham School, Uppingham, Rutland, UK
Lanthanide and Actinide Chemistry is a one–volume account of the Lanthanides (including scandium and
yttrium), the Actinides and the Transactinide elements, intended as an introductory treatment for
undergraduate and postgraduate students. The principal features of these elements are set out in detail,
enabling clear comparison and contrast with the Transition Elements and Main Group metals.
The book covers the extraction of the elements from their ores and their purification, as well as the
synthesis of the man–made elements; the properties of the elements and principal binary compounds;
detailed accounts of their coordination chemistry and organometallic chemistry, from both preparative and
structural viewpoints, with a clear explanation of the factors responsible for the adoption of particular
coordination numbers; spectroscopy and magnetism, especially for the lanthanides, with case studies and
accounts of applications in areas like magnetic resonance imaging, lasers and luminescence; nuclear
separations and problems in waste disposal for the radioactive elements, particularly in the context of
plutonium.
Latest developments are covered in areas like the synthesis of the latest man–made elements, whilst there
is a whole chapter on the application of lanthanide compounds in synthetic organic chemistry.
End–of–chapter questions suitable for tutorial discussions are provided, whilst there is a very
comprehensive bibliography providing ready access to further reading on all topics.
