CHEMISTRY F IS H E R MODERN M NMR TECHNIQUES FOR O SYNTHETIC CHEMISTRY D E R N A blend of theory and practical advice, Modern NMR Techniques for Synthetic N Chemistry illustrates how NMR spectroscopy can be used to determine the M abundance, size, shape, and function of organic molecules. It provides you with a description the NMR technique used (more pictorial than mathematical), indicating R the most common pulse sequences, some practical information as appropriate, T followed by illustrative examples. This format is followed for each chapter so you E C can skip the more theoretical details if the practical aspects are what interest you. H N Following a discussion of basic parameters, the book describes the utility of NMR I in detecting and quantifying dynamic processes, with particular emphasis on the Q usefulness of saturation-transfer (STD) techniques. It details pulsed–field gradient U approaches to diffusion measurement, diffusion models, and approaches to E S “inorganic” nuclei detection, important as many synthetic pathways to new organics F involve heavier elements. The text concludes with coverage of applications of NMR O to the analysis of complex mixtures, natural products, carbohydrates, and nucleic R acids—all areas of activity for researchers working at the chemistry–life sciences S interface. Y N The book’s unique format provides some theoretical insight into the NMR tech- MMOODDEERRNN T nique used, indicating the most common pulse sequences. The book draws upon H several NMR methods that are resurging or currently hot in the field and indicates E the specific pulse sequence used by various spectrometer manufacturers for each T NNMMRR TTEECCHHNNIIQQUUEESS FFOORR I technique. It examines the analysis of complex mixtures, a feature not found in C most books on this topic.
