Karlin English | December 15, 2003 | ISBN: 0471378291 | Pages: 738 | PDF | 6,2 MB "Dithiolene metal complexes have a history going back to the 1960's (at least).

However, there has been a major resurgence, just in the last very few years, and a number of research groups have found exciting new properties (i.e., photochemistry, luminescence), applications as sensors and new materials of industrial interest.
