Boron has all the best tunes. That may well be the first impression
of the Group 13 elements. The chemical literature fosters the
impression not only in the primary journals, but also in asteady
outflowofbooks focussing more or less closely on boron and its
compounds. The same preoccupation with boron is apparent in the
coverage received by the Group 13 elements in the comprehensive and
regularly updated volume of the Gmelin Handbook. Yet such an
imbalance cannot be explained by any inherent lack ofvariety,
interest or consequence in the 'heavier elements. Aluminium is the
most abundant metal in the earth's crust; in the industrialised
world the metal is second only to iron in its usage, and its
compounds can justifiably be said to touch our lives daily - to the
potential detriment of those and other lives, some would argue.
From being chemical curios, gallium and indium have now gained
considerably prominence as sources of compound semiconductors like
gallium arsenide and indium antimonide. Nor is there any want
ofincident in the chemistriesofthe heavier Group 13 elements. In
their redox, coordination and structural properties, there is to be
found music indeed, notable not always for its harmony but
invariably for its richness and variety. Thisbook seeks to redress
the balance with a definitive, wide-rangingand up-to-date review of
the chemistry of the Group 13 metals aluminium, gallium, indium and
thallium.
