DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/9ece34/modeling_of_molecu) has announced the addition of John Wiley and Sons Ltd's new book "Modeling of Molecular Properties" to their offering.
Molecular modeling encompasses applied theoretical approaches and computational techniques to model structures and properties of molecular compounds and materials in order to predict and / or interpret their properties. The modeling covered in this book ranges from methods for small chemical to large biological molecules and materials. With its comprehensive coverage of important research fields in molecular and materials science, this is a must-have for all organic, inorganic and biochemists as well as materials scientists interested in applied theoretical and computational chemistry. The 28 chapters, written by an international group of experienced theoretically oriented chemists, are grouped into four parts: Theory and Concepts; Applications in Homogeneous Catalysis; Applications in Pharmaceutical and Biological Chemistry; and Applications in Main Group, Organic and Organometallic Chemistry. The various chapters include concept papers, tutorials, and research reports.
Key Topics Covered:
- Part One Theory and Concepts
- Part Two Applications in Homogeneous Catalysis
- Part Three Applications in Pharmaceutical and Biological Chemistry
Author:
Peter Comba is Professor of Inorganic Chemistry at the University of Heidelberg, Germany. He obtained his Ph.D. from the University of Neuchatel, France, in 1981. He became lecturer in Basel in 1992 and was shortly afterwards called to Heidelberg. He received the Humboldt and South Africa Research Awards in 2000 and spent visiting professorships in Leiden, the Netherlands, ANU and Pretoria. His research is divided between theory and practice of transition metal coordination chemistry, molecular modeling, thermodynamics, kinetics and mechanisms on the one hand, and synthesis, metal-based template reactions, catalysis and magnetochemistry on the other.
