ORGANIC STRUCTURE DETERMINATION USING 2-D NMR SPECTROSCOPY
A Problem-Based Approach To order this title, and for more information, click here
By Jeffrey Simpson
Description This book contains 30-40 quality 2D NMR data sets following an introductory section describing the methodology employed. Many other books
describe the methods used, but none offer a large number of problems. Instructors at universities and colleges at the present time are
forced to cobble together problems from a wide range of sources. The fragmentary approach to assembling course materials has a negative
impact on course continuity and thus adversely impacts student retention. This book will stand as a single source to which instructors
and students can go to obtain a comprehensive compendium of NMR problems of varying difficulty.
Audience
This is a primary text for a course in NMR techniques, with the goal to learn to identify organic molecular structure.
