Аннотация: Rare earth metal salts are often found difficult to handle due to their strong oxophilicity, which makes them hygroscopic and reactive toward oxygen.However, this problem can be overcome by using specified lab equipments such as vacuum lines, glove boxes, etc.The catalytic applications of rare earth metals and salts have been extensively studied in C-H and C-F bond activation reactions, photocatalysis, lanthanide-halide exchange reactions, dinitrogen conversion, and most importantly for the synthesis of biologically promising carbocyclic and heterocyclic scaffolds.Many new transformations have been reported using rare earth metal salts as the catalyst.These applications have opened up the way to several new transformations in organic synthesis using rare earth metals in various oxidations states either in catalytic or in stoichiometric amounts.Under this purview, I personally believe that this book entitled Rare Earth Elements: Occurrence, Catalytic Applications and Environmental Impact, edited by Prof. Basudeb Basu and Dr. Bubun Banerjee, is going to be a valuable resource for the researchers working in the fascinating fields of rare earth metals.The main aim of this book is to showcase the versatile applications of rare earth metals in various organic transformations.Moreover, bio-applicability, industrial applications, and environmental impact of rare earth metal salts have also covered in this book.The first chapter describes the occurrence, environmental impact, and catalytic applications of various yttrium complexes for diverse organic transformations.Chapter 2 deals with the uses of half-sandwich organo rare earth metal-alkyl complexes as catalyst for the formation of various C-C bonds via C-H bond functionalization while the Chapter 3 demonstrates various rare earth metal-catalyzed one-pot multicomponent reactions.Chapter 4 focuses on the preparation and catalytic applications of light-weight rare earth metals in combination with N-heterocyclic carbine complexes.Chapter 5 summarizes the recent applications of lanthanum triflate as catalyst for various organic transformations.Catalytic role of various actinide complexes for useful organic transformations is described in Chapter 6. Chapters 7 and 8 provide elaborative literatures related to the catalytic applications of samarium and erbium-based compounds, respectively, in organic transformations.Chapters 9 and 10 summarize the catalytic applications of various rare earth metal trfilates, namely, gadolinium, scandium, and lanthanum triflates.The cerium(IV) ammonium nitrate (CAN)-catalyzed
