Organometallic compounds of Sb, Bi, Cd, Ge, Mn, P, Se, and Tl in the environment : a review / Y.K. Chau.: En13-5/99-94E-PDF

"Since the discovery of biomethylation of mercury almost thirty years ago, studies on environmental aspects of organometallic compounds have swiftly gained momentum. The development of highly sensitive and specific analytical techniques has enabled detection of organometallic species at ultra-trace levels in the environment. Because of their wide industrial usage and applications, studies particularly on mercury, lead and tin are plentiful. Research on less common organometallic compounds such as those of antimony, bismuth, cadmium, germanium, manganese, phosphorus, selenium and thallium are relatively sparse. It is the purpose of the present review to summarize the development and current status of organometallic compounds of these elements and to provide background information for researchers interested in this field"--Abstract.
