This is the second volume in the series edited by Frank Hartley on The Chemistry of the Metal Carbon Bond. The series is concerned with organometallic compounds from the point of view of the carbon end of the bond and is, therefore, relevant to Organic Chemists. This particular volume is concerned with Carbon-Carbon bonds and their formation using organometallic compounds.

Volume 5.

Volume 3.

Volume 1.

Part of a multi-volume work within the series "The Chemistry of Functional Groups", this volume covers the chemistry of the metal-carbon bond as a whole, but lays emphasis on the carbon end. It is also concerned with the use of organometallic compounds in organic and biological synthesis. It includes chapters on synthetic techniques such as sonochemistry, photochemistry and phase-transfer catalysis, on synthetic reactions such as asymmetric synthesis, oxidation and metathesis, on synthetic reagents such as metal clusters, organolanthanide, organoantimony and organobismuth reagents and chapters on biological alkylation and bio-organotin compounds.
