Aim: The aim is to give an introduction to the field of organometallic chemistry, particularly applications of organotransition metal complexes in organic synthesis. A tentative list of topics include:
Fundamentals of structure, bonding and reactivity of organometallic complexes.
Preparation and reactions of :
Hydride complexes
Alkyl complexes
Carbonyl complexes
Carbene complexes
Alkene, diene and dienyl complexes
Alkyne complexes
Allyl complexes
Aryl complexes
In each area, an overview covering both well-established synthetic methods and more recently developed reactions will be given, including methods for asymmetric systhesis (in particular, asymmetric catalysis) and applications on industrial scale.
