Modern NMR Spectroscopy: A Guide for Chemists Book

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is the most powerful research tool used in chemistry today, but the formidable array of techniques presently available has created a great deal of confusion. This book provides a non-mathematical, descriptive approach to modern NMR spectroscopy, taking examples from organic, inorganic, and biological chemistry and containing much practical advice about the acquisition and use of spectra. Beginning with the 'one pulse' sequence, the authors systematically build to multiple pulse and two-dimensional NMR. One- and two-dimensional methods are integrated in three chapters which show how to solve problems by making connections between spins through bonds, through space, or through exchange. Spectra of readily available compounds illustrate each technique, and a final chapter outlines a case history which further clarifies the strategy of the text. Organic, inorganic, and biological chemists as well as other scientists using NMR in their research will find this book to be an invaluable aid.Read More
