Organic Structures from Spectra - Tapa dura

Reseña del editor

The derivation of structural information from spectroscopic data is now an integral part of organic chemistry courses at all universities. The critical part of any such course is a suitable set of problems to develop the student's understanding of how structures are derived. This book combines the subject matter of a minimal course needed to understand the major spectroscopic techniques with a carefully selected set of 115 problems and 16 problems specifically dealing with the interpretation of proton NMR spectra. The book provides a graded set of problems to develop and consolidate the student's understanding of organic spectroscopy. The accompanying text indicates the level of theory required to tackle the problems. The examples themselves have been carefully selected to include all important structural features and to emphasize connectivity arguments. Some of the compounds were synthesized specifically for this purpose. There are many more easy problems than in other collections. Strenuous efforts have been made to ensure that solutions of the 115 structural problems are unambiguous. Another usual feature is the inclusion of the 16 problems dealing with the interpretation of first-order coupling patterns in proton NMR spectra.
