High-Resolution NMR Techniques in Organic Chemistry

This book describes the most important high-resolution NMR techniques that find use in the structure elucidation of organic molecules and the investigation of their behavior in solution.

The techniques are presented and explained using pictorial formats wherever possible, limiting the number of mathematical descriptions. The emphasis is on the more recently developed methods of solution-state NMR spectroscopy with a considerable amount of information on implementation and on the setting of critical parameters for anyone wishing to exploit these methods.

* presents a large number of examples to demonstrate the utility of the methods covered

* serves the needs of students and professionals in every chemistry laboratory

* describes the most important methods available, with guidance on execution of experiments
