Trunova Olena Kostiantynivna – was a Dr. of Chem. Scien. (Inorganic Chemistry), Senior Research Scientist, and Head of the Department of Heterophase Synthesis of Inorganic Compounds and Materials at the V.I. Vernadsky Institute of General and Inorganic Chemistry, NAS of Ukraine. Her total scientific work experience was 42 years. She was a specialist in the field of coordination compounds of d, f metals with organic O, N, S, P-containing ligands (polyaminopolycarbonate, phosphorus- and thio-containing complexones, β-diketones, flavonoids, etc.). She was engaged in the development of new approaches to the synthesis and study of compounds of a given structure with predicted properties (biologically active, electrically conductive, luminescent, photochemical) and the creation of multifunctional materials based on them. Her main results were presented in 300 articles in refereed journals, of which 150 were indexed in the Web of Science and Scopus scientometric databases. She had more than 160 reports at national and international scientific conferences and 7 patents for invention.
Trunova O. K. was a member of the Academic Council of the Institute, the Expert Council under the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine, and the Scientific Council of the NAS of Ukraine on the problem of “Inorganic Chemistry”.
Since 2000, she had been the chairman of the trade union committee of the Institute, and since 2017 — a member of the Trade Union Committee and the Central Committee of the Trade Union of the NAS of Ukraine. In 2004, she was awarded the Honorary Diploma of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine; in 2013, the award of the International Academic Rating “Golden Fortune” — the medal “Labor Glory”; and  in 2018, the Honorary Award of the NAS of Ukraine “For the preparation of scientific change».

The monograph is devoted to a new class of complexones – aminocarboxyphosphonic acids and metal complexes of 3d and 4f elements based on them. The interest in such compounds is due to the specificity of the structure of their molecules, which contain different types of functional acid groups (carboxylic and phosphonic) at one main nitrogen atom, which differ significantly in basicity, charge, stereochemistry and size. This provides a wide range of coordination possibilities of ligands, which most fully satisfy the spatial requirements of the complexing ion and allows obtaining a large set of metal complexes in solutions and polynuclear structures of unusual structure in the solid state. The monograph summarizes the literature data obtained by various authors on the study of the structure and properties of aminocarboxyphosphonic acids and complexes of 3-d and 4-f metals in solutions and crystals, and notes the peculiarities of the formation of aminocarboxyphosphonates compared to ligands of the aminocarbon/aminophosphonic series. Their spectral (NMR, ESP, IR, DFT) characteristics, thermal properties, structural features, and prospects for creating biologically active compounds and multifunctional materials of new technology based on them are considered. Special attention is paid to the results of research on ACFA and their complexes obtained by employees of the Department of Heterophase Synthesis of Inorganic Compounds and Materials, carried out within the framework of the state-budgetary subject of the V.I. Vernadsky Institute of Inorganic Chemistry of the NAS of Ukraine.

Recommended for graduate students, students of chemical, chemical engineering, and pharmaceutical specialties, teachers of secondary schools and universities, and specialists working in the field of inorganic, organic, coordination, and bioinorganic chemistry.
