Synopsis

Although there are a number of books in this field, most of them lack an introduction of comprehensive analysis of MS and IR spectra, and others do not provide up-to-date information like tandem MS. This book fills the gap. The merit of this book is that the author will not only introduce knowledge for analyzing nuclear magnetic resonance spectra including ¹H spectra (Chapter 1), ¹³C spectra (Chapter 2) and 2D NMR spectra (Chapter 3), he also arms readers systemically with knowledge of Mass spectra (including EI MS spectra and MS spectra by using soft ionizations) (Chapter 4) and IR spectra (Chapter 5). In each chapter the author presents very practical application skills by providing various challenging examples. The last chapter (Chapter 6) provides the strategy, skills and methods on how to identify an unknown compound through a combination of spectra. Based on nearly 40 years researching and teaching experience, the author also proposes some original and creative ideas, which are very practical for spectral interpretation.

About this title

About the Author

Yong-Cheng Ning studied at the Engineering-Physics Department of Tsinghua University, Beijing, China where after his graduation he worked as a faculty member. From 1971 to 1978 he researched structural identification of organic compounds at the Institute of Chemical Engineering in Shenyang. Between 1981 and 1984 Yong-Chen Ning participated in research in NMR, MS, X-ray diffraction and alkaloid laboratories of the Institute of Chemistry of Natural Substances in Paris. Since 1993 he has been a full professor at the Tsinghua University. Yong-Chen Ning's books have won several awards, including the prize for excellent teaching materials, and are part of China's standard curriculum. His book Structural Identification of Organic Compounds with Spectroscopic Techniques (Chinese) was awarded the second-class prize for 'Excellent Teaching Materials' in 1992 and "Excellent Textbook for Graduate Students" in 2003 by the Ministry of Education of China.

Nobel Laureate Chemistry 1991

In Interpretation of Organic Spectra Professor Yong-Cheng Ning fills a gap in the existing book literature by introducing and providing comprehensive analysis of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra, mass spectra (MS), and infrared (IR) spectra. In each chapter, the author builds practical application skills by providing various challenging examples. In the last section, Ning details the strategy, skills and methods on how to identify an unknown compound through a combination of spectra. Based on nearly 40 years research and teaching experience, the author also proposes some original and creative ideas, which are very practical for spectral interpretation.

• Authored by an experienced scientist working in the field for nearly four decades
• Systematically presents the latest development in the field of organic spectroscopy
• Arms readers with both theoretical and experimental aspects of the intended area
• Presents varied challenging examples to help build competence and confidence

Graduate and senior undergraduate students in organic chemistry, analytical chemistry, spectroscopy, bio-organic chemistry, and other related fields will find this book a key reference for NMR, MS and IR techniques. The book can also be used as a main text for advanced courses on Structural Identification of Organic Compounds and Organic Spectroscopy, Analytical Chemistry, Instrumentation Analysis, Spectroscopy, Instrumental Analysis of Organic and Inorganic Compounds, Synthesis and Characterization of Organic Compounds.
