Boron

Editors: Hnyk, Drahomír, McKee, Michael L. (Eds.)
Contains entries from theoreticians and experimentalists
Collects contributions from an international array of contributors
Includes a survey on a diverse array of applications

This multi-author edited volume reviews the recent developments in boron chemistry, with a particular emphasis on the contribution of computational chemistry. The contributors come from Europe, the USA and Asia. About 60% of the book concentrates on theoretical and computational themes whilst 40% is on topics of interest to experimental chemists. Specific themes covered include structure, topology, modelling and prediction, the role of boron clusters in synthetic chemistry and catalysis, as medical agents when acting as inhibitors of HIV protease and carbonic anhydrases.
