The resurgence of time-of-flight mass spectrometry (TOF-MS) has had its origin in the simplicity of construction and application of such instruments together with the high transmission and the great increase in resolution that has been achieved. The instrument lends itself naturally to a coupling with pulsed laser sources, though this is not a prerequisite. It also affords a time resolution far beyond that traditionally achieved with mass spectrometric rapid scan techniques - a recent example being the real-time analysis of a multi-component mixture from an automobile exhaust. Furthermore, the mass range appears to be extremely large: mass up to 500 kDa and beyond what is being readily measured in the laboratory today.The present set of contributions attempts to give a survey of current applications from many of the active groups in the field. A variety of new applications are considered which are no doubt just the beginning of large new areas of application. By presenting this work in book form it is hoped that it will be of help to the many groups intending to initiate work in this rapidly expanding new area of mass spectrometry.

This widely acclaimed serial contains authoritative reviews that address all aspects of organometallic chemistry, a field which has expanded enormously since the publication of Volume 1 in 1964. Almost all branchesof chemistry now interface with organometallic chemistry-the study of compounds containing carbon-metal bonds. Organometallic compounds range from species that are so reactive that they only have a transient existence at ambient temperatures to those thatare thermally very stable. They are used extensively in the synthesis of useful compounds on both small and large scales. Industrial processes involving plastics, polymers, electronic materials, and pharmaceuticals all depend on advances in organometallic chemistry.

Advances in Electron Transfer Chemistry, Volume 3 presents studies that discuss findings in the various aspects of electron chemistry. The book is comprised of four chapters; each chapter reviews a work that tackles an issue in electron transfer chemistry. Chapter 1 discusses the photoinduced electron transfer in flexible biaryl donor-acceptor molecules. Chapter 2 tackles light-induced electron transfer in inorganic systems in homogeneous and heterogeneous phases. The book also covers internal geometry relaxation effects on electron transfer rates of amino-centered systems. The sequential electron transfer reactions catalyzed by cytochrome p-450 enzymes are also dealt with. The text will be of great use to researchers interested in the field of electron transfer chemistry.

Rodd's Chemistry of Carbon Compounds, Volume II: Alicyclic Compounds focuses on alicyclic chemistry. The book first ponders on acyclic and monocyclic monoterpenoids, including artemisyl, santolinyl, chrysanthemyl, and other irregular systems; naturally occurring halogenated monoterpenoids; cyclobutanes; and tetramethylcyclohexa... The text discusses the carotenoid group of natural products. Trends in carotenoid chemical research; improved methodology; optical isomerism including aliene isomerism; and geometrical isomerism are described. The book discusses cycloheptanes and cyclooctanes, large alicyclic ring systems, and polycarbonic compounds with separate ring systems and spiro compounds. The text describes polycyclic compounds and polycarbocyclic bridged ring compounds, and then discusses bicarbocyclic natural products. The Wagner-Meerwein rearrangement; camphor and related compounds; fenchone and related compounds; and carane, thujane, and pinane groups are also considered. The text is a valuable reference for readers interested in the study of carbon compounds.

In pursuit of the objective of the series which is to present considered reviews of areas concerned with quantitative study of organic compounds and their behaviourNphysical organic chemistry in its broadest senseNina manner accessible to a general readership, this twenty-ninth volume contains five contributions on a diversity of topics. Two of these reflect the increasing importance of physical organic studies in providing fundamental knowledge relevant to the development of new materials with novel physical properties. The others represent more traditional areas of physical organic interest, where recent research has thrown new light.

The role of stereochemistry to elucidate reaction patterns and physico-chemical properties in topical subjects ranging from inorganic to organic chemistry are treated in the fifth and final volume of this series. Detailed accounts are given to study: chaining in polyphosphates, electron-transfers in carbonyl clusters, inclusion of organometallic molecules in cyclodextrins, stereochemistry of paramagnetic metal complexes by labeling with nitroxyl radicals, stereocontrol in organic syntheses assisted by inorganic complexes.

Progress in Heterocyclic Chemistry, Volume 6, reviews critically the heterocyclic literature essentially published in 1993. The first two chapters are given over to reviews. The first review deals with the subject of the "halogen dance." The second review describes the application of selected "heterocycles as vehicles for synthesis." This type of review dealing mainly with five-membered ring transformations will prove useful to many readers. The remaining chapters describe advances in the heterocyclic field arranged according to ring-size, i.e., three-, four-, five-, six-, seven-, eight-membered rings, and larger rings. Numerous diagrams and a brief index will assist in locating areas of interest.

Analysis and Synthesis Techniques in Complex Control and Dynamic Systems presents articles on control and dynamic systems. The book covers articles on FE and BE combined techniques in structural analysis and optimization; simultaneous optimization of structure and robust control; and techniques in reduced-order dynamic compensator design for stability robustness of linear discrete-time systems. The text also includes articles about robust control synthesis via mathematical programming techniques; system parameter estimation from sampled data; and output feedback stabilization of uncertain systems with state delay. The techniques in coupled modal sliding mode control of vibration in flexible structures, as well as the control and dynamics of the deep space network antennas are also emcompassed. Electrical engineers, mechanical engineers, computer engineers, and flight engineers will find the book invaluable.
