Although these metals have become a primary focus of researchers in the field, another coinage metal that is often overlooked—but is as powerful as the others—is silver, a far less costly alternative to gold and platinum in aiding the development of new reactions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMaking a strong case for the use of silver as a catalyst and structural element in organometal constructs, this authoritative book is the first to explore the benefits of using silver in organic chemistry by taking a close look at silver’s unique reactivity and structural characteristics for the development of new methods and materials. \u003ci\u003eSilver in Organic Chemistry\u003c\/i\u003e is:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe first book to address catalysis using silver, whose use in organic chemistry is on the verge of exploding\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eA resource for researchers wishing to do chemistry with silver cations, an area that stands in the shadow of gold chemistry, but still glistens, demonstrating that all that glitters is not gold—sometimes it’s silver!\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eA guide for “first attempts” in working with silver cations\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eEdited by a very well-respected, highly visible authority in this field\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eSilver in Organic Chemistry\u003c\/i\u003e promotes further scientific discussion by offering important new ways to examine the future possibilities of an emerging field.
