| Summary |
This volume brings together contributions by leading researchers covering a wide scope so characteristic of fluorine chemistry. It was in 1986 that the centennial of the isolation of fluorine by Moissan was celebrated, and much was said at the time about the impact of fluorine chemistry during its first century. It is neither a textbook nor a structured exposition of fluorine chemistry as it stands at the beginning of the new millennium, but a monograph of historical character comprising personalized accounts of progress and events in areas of particular interest. There should be much to interest and instruct chemists from other disciplines, as a good proportion of the chapters contain a considerable amount of "hard" referenced information relating to modern organic, organoelemental and inorganic chemistry. |
