Pincer Compounds offers valuable and state-of-the-art coverage highlighting highly active areas of research from mechanistic work to synthesis and characterization, with particular focus on small molecule activation chemistry (particularly H2 and hydrogenation), earth abundant metals (such as Fe), actinides, carbene-pincers, chiral catalysis, and alternative solvent usage. Over a decade since the publication of Morales-Morales and Jensen's The Chemistry of Pincer Compounds (Elsevier, 2007), research in this unique area has flourished, finding a plethora of applications in almost every single branch of chemistry, from their traditional application as very robust and very active catalyst all the way to potential biological and pharmaceutical applications. Pincer Compounds covers the current state in the field, featuring chapters from renowned contributors, covering four continents and ranging from still-active pioneers in this chemistry, as well as many new names that have emerged as current, creative and strong contributors to this fascinating and promising area.
