REFERENCE TOOL CALL # LOCATION SIZE/SCOPE ARRANGEMENT OF COMPOUNDS INFORMATION PROVIDED INDEXES, SPECIAL FEATURES
Combined Chemical Dictionary NA Chemistry Commons 160,000 entries include >400,000 records based on printed chemical dictionaries (not all print titles are owned by Emory) * Entry names chosen "are most likely to be known by, and of use to, most readers" or are taken from Chemical Abstracts.
* Solvates, complexes, isotopes, etc. treated as "derivatives" and listed under main entries.
Chemical, physical properties; synonyms; structure and formula; CA Registry Number; compound type; hazards, toxicity; source(s) and use; key reviews and references to synthesis, spectra. *Searchable fields have an alphabetical "index" of available terms; consult the User Manual or online help. *Substructure search option *How is the data organized? What does this abbreviation mean? See "Introduction to the Database"!
Titles included: Dictionary of Organic Compounds; Dictionary of Natural Products; Dictionary of Inorganic and Organometallic Compounds; Dictionary of Analytical Reagents; Dictionary of Pharmacological Agents (PharmaSource).
Dictionary of Organometallic Compounds, 2nd ed. (QD411 .D53...) REF. * 5 volumes in main work.
* Information in planned supplements also appears in CD-ROM version above.
Alphabetically by metallic element symbol; metal section entries arranged in order of increasing Hill System molecular formula. (Hill, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1900,22(8), 478-494) "Updated Entries" in Supplements replace earlier versions of the same entry. Formula index, CA Registry Number index, Synthetic Reagent index in volume 5.
Comprehensive Organometallic Chemistry II [Two] (QD411 .C652 1995) [1st ed.] (QD411 .C65 1982) REF. * 14 volumes - "A Review of the Literature 1982-1994," continuing the 9-volume 1st edition.
* Methods involving Organometallic chemistry and compounds.
Grouped by central metal, then by compound class. General discussions of methodology and compound classes, with literature references to published examples and review articles. * 2nd ed.: Structure, formula, subject indexes are volumes 13-14; author, subject indexes in other volumes * 1st ed.: Formula, author, structure, and review indexes in vol. 9. Some indexes include additional literature references not presented in the text.
Synthetic Methods of Organometallic and Inorganic Chemistry ("Herrmann/Brauer") (QD411 .S96 1996) REF. * 8 volumes in 1998.
* A "recipe book" intended to cover "the most important standard compounds… in general use" in synthesis
Grouped by central metal, then by compound class. See the Preface of each volume for discussions of compound types included in that volume Detailed synthetic procedures for Organometallic and inorganic compounds; literature references; product properties; precautions. Vol. 1 covers "Literature," "Laboratory Techniques," and "Common Starting Materials." Subject / compound index in each volume; vol. 8 index includes "Transition Metal Complexes in Other Volumes."
Organometallics in Synthesis: A Manual (QD262 .O745 1994) REF. A "nuts-and-bolts, how-to-do-it" text of selected reagents and laboratory procedures Chapters grouped by central metal, then by compound class or reaction type. Basic theoretical principles ("General Features"); practical "rules of thumb," hints and tips, safety precautions; example "Working Procedures" ; literature references. Step-by-step procedures similar in format to those in Organic Syntheses
Comprehensive Coordination Chemistry (QD474 .C65 1987) REF. * 7 volumes; vol. 7 is index.
* Metal-ligand species "where the # of metal-carbon bonds is [less than] half the coordination #."
* Divided, by volume, into ligands, main group / early transition elements, middle and late transition elements, and applications.
* Metals arranged by Periodic Table group, then by atomic number.
General discussions of "the synthesis, reactions, properties, and applications of coordination compounds," with literature references to published examples and review articles. * Subject, formula indexes in each volume
* Index volume [7] includes Index of Review Articles and Specialist Texts (1945-1986).
The Chemistry of the Metal-Carbon Bond (QD411 .C455...) Stacks 5 volumes (1993) that "…cover the chemistry of the metal-carbon bond as a whole," emphasis on carbon. Broadly grouped within a review context: see titles and prefaces of volumes. Topics in the theory, structure, preparation, characterization, analysis, and uses of organometallic compounds. Reviews of methodologies, procedures, classes; literature references. * Author, subject indexes
