Book synopsis

This volume in the Patai series marks the "Golden Jubilee" anniversary of the series, with the first book in the PATAI Series having published in 1964. In order to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the first book in the series, the Editors are marking the occasion with the publication of a volume on the chemistry of organogold. Over the past decade the use of Au in synthetic chemistry has increased exponentially. In addition, Au has become an important element used in biology, especially as surface templates. In the history of the PATAI Series there was, so far, no volume dedicated to gold alone. In 1999 we published a volume on The Chemistry of Gold and Silver Compounds. Since then a lot of new chemistry using gold has been developed and it is timely to focus a volume on methods and applications of organogold compounds. This volume fits into the series of "organometallic" functional groups, such as the volumes on organolithium, organomagnesium, organozinc, organomanganese, organocopper, metal enolates and organoiron [currently under development]. The Chemistry of Organogold Compounds focuses on three areas which dominated the developments in the past 15 years. Several reviews deal with the applications of organogold compounds in organic synthesis, reflecting the enormous progress which has been made in the use of gold compounds as reagents and catalysts. A second area of great importance is the use of gold surfaces in the synthesis of peptides, proteins and other natural products. A whole range of applications in the area of biochemistry has resulted from these developments. A third area of interest is the synthesis and engineering of nanostructures. Organogold chemistry, again, has opened the door for a wide range of methods and applications in the field of nanoscience and materials science. In order to celebrate this "jubilee volume" all three Series Editors will be involved in the editing of this volume.
