Filling a gap in our systematic knowledge of gold, this monograph covers
the fundamental aspects, while also considering new applications of gold
compounds in catalysis, as nanoparticles, and their potential application
as luminescent compounds.
Written by an eminent team of authors from academia, the book analyzes the
current status of gold chemistry, its special characteristics, oxidation
states and main type of complexes, before going on to look at the synthesis
of supramolecular aggregates due to the formation of gold-gold, gold-metal
interactions or other secondary bonds. Final sections deal with LEDs,
solvoluminescent and electroluminescent materials, liquid crystals and
catalysis.
While of interest to advanced chemistry students, this book is also useful
for researchers interested in the chemistry of gold and its applications,
as well as those involved in metal-metal interactions, heteronuclear
chemistry or in the optical properties of coordination compounds.
