BOOK
Transition metal chemisttry; The valence shell in d-block chemistry
This book provides a detailed introduction to the chemistry of transition metals with a strong focus on the electronic structure of the valence shell in d-block elements. It explains how d-electrons influence bonding, geometry, magnetic behavior, and spectroscopic properties of coordination compounds. Key theories such as crystal field theory and ligand field theory are developed and applied to real chemical systems. The text is particularly suitable for advanced undergraduate and graduate students, offering both conceptual understanding and practical interpretation of transition metal chemistry.
