The book examines the use of transition metal complexes as reagents for the synthesis of complex organic molecules. It presents an array of total syntheses that rely extensively on the unique reactivity patterns of organometallic complexes for their efficiency. For each total synthesis, the biological activity of the molecule is briefly presented, followed by a discussion of the general principles of the organometallic processes involved in the synthesis.
