資料の内容に関する注記"The present volume contain 14 chapters written by experts from eight countries. Some of the chapters are updates of material in volume 1 since its publication in 2009, and others discuss new aspects of the chemistry of metal enolates, covering structural chemistry by spectroscopic methods, thermochemistry, synthesis, various aspect of chemical behavior such as acid-base properties, coordination chemistry, and applications such as catalysis, analytical chemistry, polymerization, and deposition of metals and oxides. As usual in various books of the series, chapters on heteroatom analogs of the subject function are included, in the present case, dithiolene complexes."--Foreword.
