In summary, I have no doubt that this work will be a valuable resource for all groups working the field of organobismuth chemistry I will certainly be happy to have a copy on my bookshelf. 

This book covers comprehensively all aspects of the subject related to organobismuth chemistry in a self-contained manner. However, it is focused on academic aspects and consequently the references include a limited numbers of patents that are mentioned only where pertinent to the description. Chapter 1 serves as an introduction to bismuth as the element. In Chapters 2-4, organobismuth compounds are classified according to the types of compounds and dealt with in detail. Chapter 5 is devoted to the use of bismuth and derivatives in organic transformations. In these four chapters, brief to moderate descriptions for selected experimental procedures are included they are intended to inform the readers of relevant protocols and should serve in preparative studies which are based on analogies. In the final chapter the X-... 

This book has been written with the close cooperation of six chemists from our bismuth research group. Collection of the literature and selection of the material took much time and energy. The book will appeal to academic and industrial researchers alike it is useful especially to chemists engaged in bench work. It is hoped that this book will provide a stimulus as well as the basis for further development of organobismuth chemistry. 

This type of association is better demonstrated in organobismuth chemistry. Thus, the molecules of diphenylbismuth(III) isopropylxanthate, Ph2BiS2COPr, are self-organized in helical chains, 198, with distinct primary (Bi-S 2.66 A) and secondary (intermolecular Bi- -S 3.23 A) bismuth-sulfur bonds [467].
