This book is a revised and updated English edition of a textbook that has grown out of several years of teaching. The term ‘inorganic’ is used in a broad sense as the book covers the structural chemistry of representative elements (including carbon) in the periodic table, organometallics, coordination polymers, host-guest systems and supramolecular assemblies. Part I of the book reviewsthe basic bonding theories, including a chapter on computational chemistry. Part II introduces point groups and space groups and their chemical applications. Part III comprises a succinct account of the structural chemistry of the elements in the periodic table. It presents structure and bonding, generalizations of structural trends, crystallographic data, as well as highlights from therecent literature INDICE: Part I. Fundamentals of Bonding Theory. 1. Introduction to QuantumTheory. 2. The Electronic Structure of Atoms. 3. Covalent Bonding in Molecules. 4. Chemical Bonding in Condensed Phases. 5. Computational Chemistry. Part II.
