"Vivid testimony to the continuing
broad interest and deep impact of the chemistry of these Pigments of
Life." -- Jean-Marie Lehn, Nobel Laureate, Chemistry,
College de France, France
"Everyone interested in the biological
and chemical properties of porphyrins and related macrocycles will want
to own the Handbook. The editors have done a terrific job in linking
together the volumes in this very valuable resource for investigators
in the chemical and biological sciences." -- Harry B Gray,
Wolf Laureate, Chemistry, California Institute of Technology, USA
Porphyrins, phthalocyanines and their numerous analogues and
derivatives are materials of tremendous importance in chemistry,
materials science, physics, biology and medicine. They are the red
color in blood (heme) and the green in leaves (chlorophyll); they are
also excellent ligands that can coordinate with almost every metal in
the Periodic Table. Grounded in natural systems, porphyrins are
incredibly versatile and can be modified in many ways; each new
modification yields derivatives, demonstrating new chemistry, physics
and biology, with a vast array of medicinal and technical applications.
As porphyrins are currently employed as platforms for study
of theoretical principles and applications in a wide variety of fields,
the Handbook of Porphyrin Science represents a timely ongoing series
dealing in detail with the synthesis, chemistry, physicochemical and
medical properties and applications of polypyrrole macrocycles.
Professors Karl Kadish, Kevin Smith and Roger Guilard are
internationally recognized experts in the research field of porphyrins,
each having his own separate area of expertise in the field. Between
them, they have published over 1500 peer-reviewed papers and edited
more than three dozen books on diverse topics of porphyrins and
phthalocyanines. In assembling the new volumes of this unique Handbook,
they have selected and attracted the very best scientists in each
sub-discipline as contributing authors.
This Handbook will prove to be a modern authoritative
treatise on the subject as it is a collection of up-to-date works by
world-renowned experts in the field. Complete with hundreds of figures,
tables and structural formulas, and thousands of literature citations,
all researchers and graduate students in this field will find the
Handbook of Porphyrin Science an essential, major reference source for
many years to come.
