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, synthetic chemistry, and catalysis.
Introduction -- Molecular Structures -- Topology -- Reactivities -- Excited states, photochemistry -- Weakly-coordinating anions -- Predictions of new compounds -- Modelling of interactions with biomolecules and consequences in medicine -- Challenge for future materials science -- Chemistry of (super)carboranes.
