Inorganic and Bio-inorganic Chemistry

Polyhedra in (inorganic) chemistry.

A systematic description of polyhedra with varying degrees of regularity is illustrated with examples of chemical structures, mostly from different fields of Inorganic Chemistry. Also the geometrical relationships between different polyhedra are highlighted and their application to the analysis of complex structures is discussed.

Tetravalent Chemistry: Inorganic

This chapter gives an overview on the chemistry of tetravalent lanthanide compounds, especially those of tetravalent cerium. Following a brief Introduction it covers the tetrahalides, dioxides and other lanthanides(IV) salts. Coordination compounds of cerium in the oxidation state +4 include halogeno complexes and complexes of oxo acids, β-diketonates and related Schiff-base complexes as well a...
