Fundamentals and Applications of Boron Chemistry highlights its impressive potential for current and future developments across a range of fields, providing foundational information on boron chemistry and systematically summarizing applications of boron in energy, medicinal chemistry, and materials chemistry. Beginning with an introduction to boron chemistry which outlines the boron element and its physical and chemical properties, this book goes on to discuss advances in boron coordination chemistry, before delving deeper into key fields of application. The latest developments in boron-based catalysts in organic reactions are reviewed, followed by novel emerging boron-containing materials and their potential applications in areas such as hydrogen storage, and boron materials with special optical activity. Finally, advance boron-based drugs and therapies are explored.
This book fills the current market gap, systematically summarizing developments and applications of boron in energy, medicinal chemistry, and materials chemistry in a single, accessible volume. It is a valuable reference for chemists, students, and researchers in relative areas.
