Chemistry of Metal Phenolates, Volume 2

Jacob Zabicky is an emeritus professor at Ben Gurion University of the Negev in Beer Sheva, Israel. Earning his Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry with Saul Patai in the 1950s, he has since worked and taught at many different institutions in Israel, the UK, Venezuela, Germany, Spain, South Africa, and the USA. Prof. Zabicky is currently a lecturer at the Jerusalem College of Engineering and a member of the steering committee for the Israeli Center for Powder Technology. He has edited volumes in the Patai Series since the 1970s, the most recent ones on the subjects of metal enolates and metal phenolates.
