Description
Since the 1950s, the number and nature of known organometallic compounds has increased at a bewildering pace. Organoiron compounds have played a central role in the development of the subject. Iron forms stable complexes with a wide range of ligands, making this possibly the most versatile metal in the Periodic Table. Despite this fact, the use of organoiron complexes in organic synthesis has been somewhat restricted compared with palladium, rhodium, and other metalsthat are traditionally used in catalytic processes. This book provides skillful and accessible coverage of the applications of organoiron complexes in organic synthesis specifically for the practicing organic chemist, and, similarly, the majority of the complexes discussed are easy to prepare. The book will enable organic chemists to develop an understanding of how to design syntheses based on the known chemistry of the complexes described.
