Halogens are important since these elements form compounds with the vast majority of the other elements in the periodic table. By means of easy concepts such as the pseudohalogen concept, correlation between structure, bonding and properties can be predicted for unknown compounds.

This article covers only a part of the chemistry of boron. Boron-carbon compounds are covered in other articles in this volume see Boron Organoboranes Boron Metallacarbaboranes, and Boron Polyhedral Carboranes). The main subject of the latter two articles, and the separate one on Boron Hydrides is the extensive chemistry of the multicenter bonded boron-hydride systems. This area has been a major focus of boron research for the past 60 years. There is some direct overlap between the two articles Borides Solid-state Chemistry and Borates Solid-state Chemistry, and this more general one covering the inorganic chemistry of boron. Boron-Nitrogen Compounds are also covered separately. These articles should be consulted for more detailed discussions of the structure, bonding, and properties of borides, solid-state borates, and boron-nitrogen compounds. 

On the other hand, the deposition of metal layer on polymer surface is more problematic because the adhesion of metal deposition on a polymer surface is not so simple depending on how the metal layer is deposited, and also on the structure of the deposited metal layer. Metallized insulators such as polymeric and ceramic materials are widely used in the appliance, automotive, and electronics industries. Metallization of nonconducting substrates is technically difficult because of the structural incompatibility between the substrate and metallizing material, in terms of both chemical bonding and properties. The abrupt mismatch at the interface between them has been blamed for the major portion of failures of metallized parts under operating conditions. 

Chemists have prepared metal complexes containing metal atoms/ions as a means to understand better the structure, chemical bonding, and properties of metals and metal ions. One of the first efforts to affix these metal complexes to a surface as a means to create a supported catalyst was reported by Ballard followed by reports collected by Yermakov, et al. and Basset et al. We distinguish here between metal complexes that contain zero-valent metals and those that show metal cations and we limit this review to complexes containing metal ions as others have published extensive reviews of zero-valent, metal clusters and their chemistryIn our previous three reviews on the chemistry of supported, polynuclear metal complexes, we described efforts to synthesize and characterize oxide-supported, metal complexes as adsorbents, catalysts and precursors to supported metal oxides. In one application of this technology, efforts were... 

Capsaicin is the compound responsible for the characteristic spicy flavor of jalapeho and habahero peppers. Although it first produces a burning sensation on contact with the mouth or skin, repeated application desensitizes the area to pain. This property has made it the active ingredient in several topical creams for treatment of chronic pain. Capsaicin has also been used as an animal deterrent in pepper sprays, and as an additive to make birdseed squirrel-proof In Chapter 1, we discuss the structure, bonding, and properties of organic molecules like capsaicin.
