Tin Chemistry: Fundamentals, Frontiers, and Applications

Tin chemistry retains a place in contemporary science as animportant element owing to its wide range of applications.New and exciting research is being generated on an annual basis from all parts of the world – the study of tin and its compounds attracts considerable interest from a range of perspectives such as organic synthesis, medicine, materials chemistry, catalysis and environment.

Tin Chemistry – Fundamentals, Frontiers and Applications collects, in one comprehensive volume, authoritative and concise snapshots of modern tin chemistry in a full range of applications. Over forty of the leading tin chemistry experts have contributed reviews in six themes:

• fundamentals in tin chemistry
• materials chemistry and structural chemistry of tin compounds
• medicinal and biocidal applications of tin compounds
• tin in the environment
• tin in organic synthesis
• tin in catalysis

Tin Chemistry – Fundamentals, Frontiers and Applications is an essential overview of modern perspectives on this important element for the specialist and non-specialist alike. It will promote cross-disciplinary interactions and at the same time be an essential teaching resource for advanced university classes.
