Progress in Inorganic Chemistry, Volume 50 Progress in Inorganic Chemistry Series

This series provides inorganic chemists and materials scientists with a forum for critical, authoritative evaluations of advances in every area of the discipline. Volume 50 continues to report recent advances with a significant, up-to-date selection of contributions on topics such as the following:

• Structural and mechanistic investigations in asymmetric copper;
• Catalyzed reactions;
• Phenoxyl radical complexes;
• Synthesis of large pore zeolites and molecular sieves;
• Inorganic nanoclusters with fullerene-like structure and nanotubes
