Group Structures

Preface

Dear Visitor,

The following pages represent our favorite list of structures from the Mindiola lab. These structures have been hand picked from our current library of published structures. The molecules presented in this book of structural memoirs are the group's top choices and by no means represent an accurate account of great moieties discovered by us or others. Many of these systems have challenged current archetypes of structure, bonding, and reactivity, and often represent an unnatural "first" in the context of organotransition chemistry. Some of these systems are exceedingly reactive and our group is now beginning to uncover some of their reaction potential as well as catalytic activity. We hope you enjoy our top list of molecular structures.

Best wishes,

Daniel J. Mindiola
