It gives me great pleasure to introduce what I believe is the first Discussion Meeting on inorganic chemistry organized by the Royal Society in the immediate past. In choosing the topic for this discussion it was generally felt that one of the most rapidly developing areas of inorganic chemistry is that of cluster compounds. This area of chemistry covers virtually the whole of the periodic table and today’s discussion is concerned primarily with the cluster compounds formed by metal carbonyls, with illustrations of other areas of cluster chemistry of the sulphur and halide complexes of transition metals.
