Book Description
'I congratulate the authors for encompassing the four main branches of spectroscopy favoured by organic chemists in just 75 pages... At £6.99, this might become the compulsory text for my spectroscopic modules. If it does, all my carefully crafted hand-outs, all my well-honed problems and examples may have to go in the bin. Buy it!' Alan Dronsfield in Education in Chemistry, Sep. 2001This Primer covers the foundations of spectroscopy at a level suitable for first year chemistry undergraduates. Mass spectrometry and X-ray diffraction, along with traditional spectroscopic techniques : i.r., n.m.r., and u.v. -visible spectroscopy are covered. The essential physical principles of each method are introduced, many examples of spectral analysis are provided, and some problems; further reading and practice is strongly encouraged.
