Nmr Data Interpretation Explained - 9781118370223

The book starts at the simplest level, with little or no discussion of NMR theory or physics, and focuses entirely on a large number of examples of NMR data. Through these examples, the principles of the relationship between chemical structure and the NMR spectrum are developed in a logical, step-by-step fashion. After each new concept is introduced there are numerous problems to illustrate the concept. While starting with the simplest concepts and examples, the book does progress to complex topics not usually covered in NMR books such as: complex splitting patterns, stereochemistry in rigid molecules, prediction of J coupling values, effects of chirality, steric crowding effects, and resonance structure analysis for prediction of chemical shifts. Advanced topics include all of the common two-dimensional experiments (COSY, NOESY, TOCSY, HSQC, HMBC) covered strictly from the point of view of data interpretation, with many examples and problems. These are valuable tools for the serious user of NMR data in research.
