Essential Practical NMR for Organic Chemistry
A hands-on resource advocating an ordered approach to gathering and interpreting NMR data
The second edition of Essential Practical NMR for Organic Chemistry delivers a pragmatic and accessible text demonstrating an ordered approach to gathering and interpreting NMR data. In this informal guide, you'll learn to make sense of the high density of NMR information through the authors' problem-solving strategies and interpretations.
The book also discusses critical aspects of NMR theory, as well as data acquisition and processing strategy. It explains the use of NMR spectroscopy for dealing with problems of small organic molecule structural elucidation and includes a brand-new chapter on Nitrogen-15 NMR. Readers will also find:
* Strategies for preparing a sample, spectrum acquisition, processing, and interpreting your spectrum
* Fulsome discussions of Carbon-13 NMR spectroscopy
* Practical treatments of quantification, safety procedures, and relevant software
An ideal handbook for anyone involved in using NMR to solve structural problems, this latest edition of Essential Practical NMR for Organic Chemistry will be particularly useful for chemists running and looking at their own NMR spectra, as well as those who work in small molecule NMR. It will also earn a place in the libraries of undergraduate and post-graduate organic chemistry students.

The authors have worked in NMR for GlaxoSmithKline R&D for over 40 years each, solving organic chemistry structural problems supporting synthetic and medicinal chemists. This work has required the inference of structural information from complex NMR data as well as the design of experiments to test structural hypotheses. Their breadth of experience includes instrumental, chemical, and informatics approaches to answering those important structural questions.
