Zinc: Organometallic ChemistryBased in part on the article Zinc: Organometallic Chemistry by Gerard Parkin which appeared in theEncyclopedia of Inorganic Chemistry, First Edition.
Abstract:Since the discovery of the first organozinc compounds by Sir Edward Frankland in 1849, the organometallic chemistry of zinc made remarkable advances and organozinc species have become essential tools for organic chemists. During the past decade, numerous new and modified procedures for the preparation of the title compounds have been published, rendering their synthesis easier, faster, and less expensive and giving higher yields. The coordination chemistry of organozinc derivatives has been subject of further … Show more
