Bioinorganic Vanadium Chemistry (Inorganic Chemistry: A Textbook Series) by Dieter Rehder Bioinorganic Vanadium Chemistry (Inorganic Chemistry: A Textbook Series) by Dieter Rehder PDF, ePub eBook D0wnl0ad Vanadium is named after Vanadis , the most aristocratic of Norse goddesses, who symbolises beauty and fertility - essential features of vanadium chemistry. It is a ubiquitous trace element, with a surprising range of biological functions. In Bioinorganic Vanadium Chemistry, Dieter Rehder addresses the major aspects of vanadium chemistry related to living organisms and the mutual impact between biological and inorganic vanadium chemistry. Topics covered include: the history, natural occurrence, distribution and impact of vanadium inorganic aspects of the function of vanadium in biological systems interaction of aqueous vanadate and vanadyl with biogenic ligands vanadium coordination compounds the vanadium-carbon bond methods of characterisation of biogenic and model vanadium s
