About this ebook

This volume provides a comprehensive exploration of the diverse facets of bismuth chemistry. It covers topics such as the influence of nitrogen-based ligands on bismuth coordination chemistry, the structural constraints affecting bismuth compounds, and the reactivity of bismuthinidenes. Additionally, the book presents the properties and significance of low-valent molecular bismuth species, including neutral Bi(I) and Bi(II) species, molecular Bi-clusters, and radicals, as well as their potential applications in catalysis. Furthermore, it examines the role of bismuth compounds in endeavors towards more sustainable organic synthesis. This book is a valuable resource to researchers, graduate students and professionals interested in inorganic chemistry at the interface with organic synthesis, particularly those focusing on bismuth chemistry, ligand design, and reactivity studies.

About the author

Crispin Lichtenberg studied chemistry at the universities of Cambridge (UK) and Marburg. Having earned his PhD degree at the RWTH Aachen University, he worked as a postdoc at the ETH Zurich (CH) and finished his habilitation at the University of Würzburg. Scientific awards include an ERC starting grant and a Heisenberg grant (DFG). Since 2022, he is a LOEWE Professor of Inorganic Chemistry at the Philipps-University of Marburg. His research interests cover molecular bismuth compounds and redox-active ligands aiming at the design of new structural motifs and the exploration of their reactivity towards applications in synthesis, catalysis, and materials science.
