    About the Book

    This textbook, Exploring Inorganic and Organometallic Chemistry, covers the fundamentals of inorganic and organometallic chemistry for undergraduate and graduate students. Both theories of structure and bonding and reaction chemistry are covered, with applications to the catalysis of organic reactions, biochemistry, and drug design. A modular approach allows for basic materials of each chapter to be covered in an undergraduate course, with more advanced material suitable for M.S. and Ph.D. students.

    About the Contributors

    Author

    W. Christopher Boyd (B.A. Oberlin College, Ph.D. University of California, Berkeley) is an inorganic chemist who has taught in Cleveland State University's Department of Chemistry since 2014. His research focuses on the coordination chemistry of azodioxides, the dimers of nitrosoarenes, and the application of the resulting complexes to anticancer drug design.
