This is a methods-oriented book, which contains enormous amounts of information on 31P NMR, in a concise and well-edited format. It is an invaluable resource for every NMR spectroscopist.
This book consists of 33 chapters, which together 'constitute a compendium that will be of optimal utility to the majority of 31P NMR spectroscopy users as well as to those perhaps not as familiar with the technique but curious about potential applications in their own research.' (From the editors' preface)
There have been a number of new developments in NMR techniques in the 6 years since...

This volume covers the new methodological advances in NMR spectroscopy that have been developed since the publication of the first edition. These include: 'indirect detection' methods, particularly proton-detected carbon-13 spectra, which have profoundly increased NMR sensitivities; 3- and even higher- dimensional NMR methods which have further increased spectral resolving and correlating power; powerful new computer programs which assist in all phases of data analysis and ultimately make possible rigorous interpretations of complex 2D and higher- dimensional NMR spectra using molecular...

Most books on organic conformational deal with sterochemistry, while neglecting the spatial structure of organic molecules, especially the unusual ones. This ambitious monograph presents a global view of organic structure and conformational analysis in a very readable style. The author's fascination with the beauty and variety of shapes of organic molecules comes through in her description of the importance of molecular organization in organic chemical and biological systems, the quantum foundations of molecular spatial structure, molecular symmetry, chiralty and physical methods for studying...

Packed with reviews plus new results from the author's laboratories, the first-of-its-kind work offers a timely and authoritative treatise on the use of mass spectral techniques in organic stereochemistry.

Featuring 22 chapters contributed by eminent and active researchers in the field, this unique sourcebook offers comparative information on the use of a variety of mass-spectral techniques to characterize stereoisomers and conformers of both large and small biologically important organic molecules. It also discusses techniques for studying gas-phase conformational equilibria in...

The various techniques used to analyze the microstructures of polymers are presented in this book. High resolution and solid state techniques are described, and applications to both synthetic and biological polymers are discussed in detail.

Particular emphasis is placed on the determination of polymer microstructure by NMR spectroscopy. Here attention is drawn to the connection between the microstructures and NMR spectra of polymers, and it is demonstrated that the local polymer conformation provides this link. The numerous examples illustrating this connection are a special...

An authoritative review of the state of the art in the Nuclear Overhauser Effect-essential information for organic chemists, biochemists, biophysicists, and NMR spectroscopists
The field of NMR spectroscopy has seen tremendous growth in the last twenty years, particularly advances relating to Nuclear Overhauser Effect (NOE) spectroscopy-the most powerful technique for obtaining structural information on molecules in solution. Extensive and engaging, the Second Edition of the leading reference on the NOE is significantly updated to reflect the latest changes and new approaches in the...

Molecules are held together by chemical bonds. The CH-( interactions deals with the interactions between two bonds, which contributes to the shape and reactivity of the molecule. This book presents an overview of the experimental basis, theoretical background, and nature of the CH-( Interactions. The CH-( Interaction refers to a weak attractive force that originally was inferred from structural data obtained by spectroscopy. The characteristics of this weak force are compared to those of other hydrogen bonds.

Since 1990, advances in laser spectroscopy have made it possible to selectively excite and follow the fate of a single molecule with ultrafast resolution. This has made it possible to monitor the elementary processes that occur directly after absorption of a photon. This volume focuses on the conformational changes in organic molecules that result from absorption of a photon. These include those accompanying intramolecular excited state electron transfer, intra- and intramolecular excited state proton transfer, photoisomer formation, exciplex formation and control of photoproduct formation.

A unique guide to variable temperature CD spectroscopy and its application in organic chemistry
This timely, original, thought-provoking work looks at organic stereochemistry from the perspective of circular dichroism (CD), using variable temperature CD spectroscopy to determine the conformation or absolute configuration of chiral molecules. With an emphasis on the analysis of optically active ketones and the carbonyl chromophore, the authors demonstrate the advantages of this highly sensitive spectroscopic tool for obtaining stereochemical information in diverse areas of organic...
