As the fields of inorganic chemistry and catalysis move towards the use of cheap, non-toxic first row transition metals, it is essential to understand the important role of spin states in influencing molecular structure, bonding and reactivity.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eSpin States in Biochemistry and Inorganic Chemistry\u003c\/i\u003e provides a complete picture on the importance of spin states for reactivity in biochemistry and inorganic chemistry, presenting both theoretical and experimental perspectives. The successes and pitfalls of theoretical methods such as DFT, ligand-field theory and coupled cluster theory are discussed, and these methods are applied in studies throughout the book. Important spectroscopic techniques to determine spin states in transition metal complexes and proteins are explained, and the use of NMR for the analysis of spin densities is described.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTopics covered include: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eDFT and ab initio wavefunction approaches to spin states\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExperimental techniques for determining spin states\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMolecular discovery in spin crossover\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMultiple spin state scenarios in organometallic reactivity and gas phase reactions\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTransition-metal complexes involving redox non-innocent ligands\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePolynuclear iron sulfur clusters\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMolecular magnetism\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNMR analysis of spin densities\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book is a valuable reference for researchers working in bioinorganic and inorganic chemistry, computational chemistry, organometallic chemistry, catalysis, spin-crossover materials, materials science, biophysics and pharmaceutical chemistry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Marcel Swart,Miquel Costas\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wiley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/14\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 480\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.80h x 7.50w x 1.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781118898314\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eProf. Dr. Marcel Swart, Universitat de Girona, Spain\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMarcel Swart is ICREA Research Professor in the Institute of Computational Chemistry Catalysis at the Universitat de Girona, Spain.
