5 Preface Organometallic chemistry belongs to the most rapidly developing area of chemistry today. This is due to the fact that research dealing with the structure of compounds and chemical bonding has been greatly intensified in recent years. Additionally, organometallic compounds have been widely utilized in catalysis, organic synthesis, electronics, etc. This book is based on my lectures concerning basic organometallic chemistry for fourth and fifth year chemistry students and on my lectures concerning advanced organometallic chemistry and homogeneous catalysis for Ph.D. graduate students. Many recent developments in the area of organometallic chemistry as weil as homogeneous catalysis are presented. Essential research results dealing with a given class of organometallic compounds are discussed briefly. Results of physicochemical research methods of various organometallic compounds as weil as their synthesis, properties, structures, reactivities, and applications are discussed more thoroughly. The selection of tabulated data is arbitrary because, often, it has been impossible to avoid omissions. Nevertheless, these data can be very helpful in understanding properties of organometailic compounds and their reactivities. All physical data are given in SI units; the interatomic distances are given in pm units in figures and tables. I am indebted to Professor S. A. Duraj for translating and editing this book. His remarks, discussions, and suggestions are greatly appreciated. I also express gratitude to Virginia E. Duraj for editing and proofreading. I sincerely thank Professor A. Wojcicki for his comments, discussions, and editorial help. I also extend my thanks to Professors J. P. Fackler, Jr., F. A. Cotton, and R. A. Walton for their suggestions and remarks. My special thanks go to the chemistry faculty of Cleveland State University, especiaily to Professors A. H. Andrist and R. L. R. Towns for their support throughout the translation of the book. I also sincerely thank RicheIle P. Emery for her exceilent word processing skills in connection with the preparation of the English manuscript. The first Polish edition of this book appeared in 1984, and the second, expanded edition is now in press. v

6 vi Preface I should also like to acknowledge the comments and discussions of Professors S. Pasynkiewicz, A. Ratajczak, and W. Wojciechowski during the preparation of the Polish editions of this book. Finally, I sincerely thank my wife, Halina, for typewriting, proofreading, and for all her help during the writing and preparation of the book. F. Pruchnik
