Review
From the reviews:
"This volume, edited by two experts in the field of supramolecular chemistry, covers recent work on the synthesis and characterization of organic and organometallic supramolecular nanostructures. a ] the book gives a good impression of state-of-the-art research on complex, self-assembling macromolecules. a ] the text covers a broad range of modern topics in organic nanomaterials, and readers will learn a great deal about current research in this field."

Product Description
This book presents a detailed account of the synthesis, characterization and application of organic and inorganic macromolecular nanostructured materials. These materials consist of simple organic compounds, inorganic complexes and polymers, and display unique properties such as electrical conductivity ranging from semiconducting to superconducting. Also described in the book are the roles of these materials in electrodeposition and gas deposition, as photosensitizers, magnets, macromolecular metal catalysts, sol-gel hybrids, and in biomineralization. The book covers many essential and timely issues involved in the synthesis of nanostructured materials.
