Carbon Dioxide Activation by Metal Complexes

This in-depth review of the activation of carbon dioxide by metal complexes covers all relevant aspects of organometallic chemistry, catalysis, and industrial applications. It deals with both stoichiometric reactions of C-C-bond formation and catalytic reactions of CO2 and demonstrates the close realtionships between them. The author has included more than 800 references, many as recent as 1987, for those who wish to pursue the subject further.
