Introduction to Organometallic Chemistry

A clear introduction to organometallic chemistry: the main ligands, electron counting, geometry of complexes and the key reactions, from oxidative addition to migratory insertion and beta-elimination.

Michael Evans

The full lecture notes of a graduate organometallic course, with detailed mechanisms for hydrogenation, hydroformylation, polymerization and Pd-catalyzed coupling. Ideal if you want to understand how catalysts really work.

George G. Stanley

A master-level course on stereochemistry and bonding in main group compounds, followed by metal pi-complexes, metal carbonyls, nitrosyls and metal clusters.
