Since the discovery of ferrocene in the 1950s, there has been an explosion of research in this area of organometallic chemistry, and metallocene chemistry is now a part of every undergraduate chemistry course. This book, aimed at advanced-level undergraduates, postgraduates and researchers in the field, is the first comprehensive account of the theory and applications of the various types of metallocenes for the last 30 years. The book develops from chapters on all aspects of the synthesis, structure, bonding and chemistry of metallocenes, to a discussion of the uses and importance of these compounds.
