Covers coordination numbers, common ligands, and preferred geometries in coordination chemistry, emphasizing the spatial distribution between ligands and the role of d⁸ electron configurations.
Explores advanced catalyst characterization techniques, including CO stretching frequency shifts on Pt surfaces and reflection techniques for studying events at interfaces.
Explores metal speciation, complexation, kinetics of ligand exchange reactions, and the relationship between thermodynamics and kinetics for metal complexes.
