Synopsis

An elementary introduction to 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy, from basic theory to biological applications. The textbook is intended for students and lecturers in chemistry, as well as spectroscopists, pharmaceutical chemists and natural products chemists. Features include clear and descriptive diagrams and examples illustrating the material presented. Lucid and information-packed, the book is highlighted by its clear and descriptive illustrations; numerous examples constructed especially for the material presented; comprehensive treatment of the most important areas of NMR spectroscopy; excellent didactic approach. It is suitable both as a textbook for students as well as a selfstudy guide for professionals (chemists, biologists, physicians, pharmacists, technical assistants etc). Numerous excellent examples and cross-references, outstanding introduction to 2D techniques, a successful presentation of NMR techniques, and a valuable addition to the textbook market are typical of the comments that greeted the original German language edition.

About this title

Review:

"If this reviewer had to choose one book as a reference for using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, or one course resource to introduce (NMR) spectroscopy, this would be it." (CHOICE, December 2005)

"...a comprehensive text for graduate students, although the book would also make an interesting reference for an organic chemistry library." (Journal of Natural Products, October 2005)

From reviews of previous editions:
"This book is a pleasure to read and if it does not arouse the student′s interest, then it is difficult to see what could. It is clearly written and illustrated...good value and essential reading for anyone wanting to know more about NMR." (Chemistry in Britain)

"Another paperback that I would advise students to buy...[it] can be recommended for general purchase by all chemists." (New Scientist)

"This book deserves much praise. If only all authors took as much trouble to produce a work of such clarity and relevance.... The book forms an excellent bridge between the very simple texts on spectral interpretation and more specialist works with an emphasis on mathematical theory.... This book is highly educational and will be of benefit to those who have to teach NMR and to students and scientists in academic and industrial laboratories... this work is right up to date with an inclusion of most widely used modern NMR methods with a style and content that is superb." (NMR in Biomedicine)

From the Back Cover:

A classic among NMR textbooks, this thoroughly enlarged and updated fourth edition now also includes

• polymer solid state NMR
• analysis of biopolymers
• applications of Magnetic Resonance Tomography and Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy

Written by an NMR expert with long–standing teaching experience, this text provides students and professionals with a lucidly written introduction to NMR spectroscopy.

From reviews of previous editions:

"This is an excellent book...we have been using the first edition of the book in our graduate course in NMR for three years and have been very pleased with it. My opinion is that someone who began knowing nothing about NMR could become quite proficient at structure determination by simply mastering the contents of this book. I highly recommend it."
––Journal of the American Chemical Society

"Almost every course in chemistry and biochemistry nowadays has some NMR component, and the student′s interest depends on how the material is delivered. This book is a pleasure to read and if it does not arouse the student′s interest, then it is difficult to see what could. It is clearly written and illustrated, with a near perfect balance of mathematics and text."
––Chemistry in Britain

"This book deserves much praise.... The book forms an excellent bridge between the very simple texts on spectral interpretation and more specialist works with an emphasis on mathematical theory. The many diagrams are clear and of high quality, and the examples of NMR spectra throughout the book are well chosen. All of the widely used modern NMR experiments are covered with a phenomenological description of the theory and examples. This book is highly educational and will be of benefit to those who have to teach NMR and to students and scientists in academic and industrial laboratories who use NMR spectroscopy...the author has now brought this work right up to date with inclusion of the most widely used moden NMR methods with a style and content that is superb."
––NMR in Biomedicine

"This book is particularly well illustrated with numerous carefully documented figures and clear examples that illustrate points made in the text.... Those readers looking for an introduction to peptide and protein NMR techniques will find...the basic techniques here...the author and his translator have cooperated to produce a valuable comprehensive introductory text suitable for a wide–range of natural product chemists and phytochemists interested in learning the proper use of one– and two–dimensional NMR spectroscopy."
