metaliteratureLiterature that deals with the subject of literature.
metalithiumA heavy isotope of the simplest alkali metal, (symbol Li) with an atomic number of 3 and containing 8 neutrons. Metalithium is an artificial isotope produced by bombarding Lithium 7 with neutrons. It is radioactive, with a half-life of 0.84 seconds.
metallacrownA macrocyclic compound that consists of metal ions and solely or predominantly heteroatoms in the ring.
metallacycleA heterocycle containing at least one metal atom in the ring
metallacycloalkaneA monocyclic heterocycle consisting of a metal atom and saturated carbon atoms in the ring.
metallacyclobutaneA derivative of cyclobutane (or of a derivative) in which a methylene group has been replaced by a metal atom
metallacyclobuteneA four-membered cyclic organometallic compound containing a metal atom bonded to two carbon atoms of an alkene.
metallacyclopentaneAny of a group of saturated organometallic heterocycles having four carbon atoms and one metal atom in the ring
metallateAny anion or salt containing a metal atom ligated to one or more oxygen or other atoms, or to small groups; e.g. tungstate, tetrathiomolybdate or ferrocyanide
metallineA substance of variable composition, but resembling a soft, dark-coloured metal, used in the bearings of machines to reduce friction, and as a substitute for lubricants.
metallingA road surface, especially one of gravel (but sometimes with reference to macadam, tarmacadam, or asphalt concrete).
metallisationNon-Oxford British English spelling of metallization.
metalliseNon-Oxford British spelling of metallize.
metallismAny economic system based on the value of metals (especially gold or silver).
metalloceneAny of a class of organic compounds containing two cyclopentadienyl anions and a transition metal whose bonding involves overlap of ns and np orbitals of the metal with molecular orbitals of appropriate symmetry of each cyclopentadienyl ring; the rings are parallel to each other, or sometimes canted.
metallocentreThe region of a metalloprotein enclosing the metal atom.
metallochaperoneAny of a family of proteins that move metal ions to specific sites within a cell, normally to bind with metalloenzymes and cofactors
metallochelataseAny enzyme (such as ferrochelatase) that catalyses the chelation of a metal ion
metallochemicalRelating to the chemistry of metals, especially to that of the intermetallic compounds
metallochemistryThe chemistry (especially the organic chemistry and biochemistry) of metals
metallochlorinA coenzyme, related to the porphyrins, containing a metal
metallochromeA colouring produced by the deposition of some metallic compound; specifically, the prismatic tints produced by depositing a film of peroxide of lead on polished steel by electricity.
metallochromicDescribing the prismatic colouring produced by deposition of a fine layer of metal on a surface
metallochromyThe art or process of colouring metals by changing their oxidation state.
metalloclusterA clustering of the metal atoms of a metalloenzyme
metalloidAn element, such as silicon or germanium, intermediate in properties between that of a metal and a nonmetal; especially an elemental semiconductor.
