Inorganic Experiments

Now available in paperback! Renew your inorganic chemistry lab course! This book offers detailed descriptions of more than 60 experiments ranging from undergraduate to graduate level, covering organometallic, main group, solid state and coordination chemistry. Almost all reaction types, laboratory techniques and classes of compounds which constitute current curricula are exemplarily represented. Experiments have been contributed from university teachers all over Europe. Each experiment has been thoroughly tested. Special safety instructions are always provided, highly hazardous substances have been substituted by less harmful ones wherever possible. Products are characterized by modern spectroscopic techniques. Also included are exercises, questions and hints to further reading. The experiments illustrate modern research directions: many compounds have only very recently been described.
