This introductory textbook covers all the major spectroscopic techniques that cover the derivation of structural information from spectroscopic data. It incorporates over 200 carefully selected problems that are graded to develop and consolidate the students understanding of organic spectroscopy and to develop an understanding of how structures are derived.

This, the third edition has been thoroughly revised and updated and reflects the many developments in this area. It includes over 50 new problems and presents challenging examples that have been carefully selected to include all–important structural features and to emphasise connectivity arguments.

More emphasis on techniques is included in the problems and the advanced NMR topics section is expanded in the areas of decoupling and applications of the nuclear overhauser effect (nOe).

Brief and easy–to–read text providing sufficient detail of theory to be able to solve problems without going to excessive depth.
Large, graded selection of problems from the very easy to challenging.
Provides hands–on training for the non–expert

From the Back Cover:

The derivation of structural information from spectroscopic data is now an integral part of organic chemistry at all universities. A critical part of any such course is a suitable set of problems to develop the student′s understanding of how structures are derived.

Organic Structures for Spectra, Third Edition consists of a carefully selected set of 256 structural problems involving the use of all the major spectroscopic techniques and 20 problems that deal specifically with the interpretation of spin–spin coupling in proton NMR spectra. The problems are graded to develop and consolidate the student′s undestanding of Organic Spectroscopy. The accompanying text is descriptive and explains the underlying theory at a level that is appropriate for tackling the problems. The text includes condensed tables of characteristic spectral properties covering the frequently encountered functional groups.

The examples themselves have been carefully selected to include all–important structural features and to emphasise connectivity arguments. Many of the compounds were synthesised specifically for this purpose. There are many more easy problems (to build confidence and demonstrate basic principles) than in other collections. Strenuous efforts have been made to ensure that each of the structural problems has an unambiguous solution

The third edition of this popular textbook:
∗ has been expanded and updated to reflect the new developments in the area

∗ contains an additional 70 carefully chosen problems

∗ features NMR spectra obtaines at 200, 400 and 600 MHz and includes a selection of DEPT experiments as well as coupled �13C NMR spectra.

∗ includes 6 problems which are presented in the style of experimental sections of research papers and the appendix contains examples of fully worked solutions
Organic Structures from Spectra, Third Edition will prove invaluable for students of Chemistry, Pharmacy and Biochemistry taking a first course in Organic Chemistry.
