Download or read book VCD Spectroscopy for Organic Chemists written by Philip J. Stephens and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2012-06-25 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stimulated by the increasing importance of chiral molecules as pharmaceuticals and the need for enantiomerically pure drugs, techniques in chiral chemistry have been expanded and refined, especially in the areas of chromatography, asymmetric synthesis, and spectroscopic methods for chiral molecule structural characterization. In addition to synthetic chiral molecules, naturally occurring molecules, which are invariably chiral and generally enantiomerically enriched, are of potential interest as leads for new drugs. VCD Spectroscopy for Organic Chemists discusses the applications of vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectroscopy to the structural characterization of chiral organic molecules. The book provides all of the information about VCD spectroscopy that an organic chemist needs in order to make use of the technique. The authors, experts responsible for much of the existing literature in this field, discuss the experimental measurement of VCD and the theoretical prediction of VCD. In addition, they evaluate the advantages and limitations of the technique in determining molecular structure. Given the availability of commercial VCD instrumentation and quantum chemistry software, it became possible in the late 1990s for chemists to use VCD in elucidating the stereochemistries of chiral organic molecules. This book helps organic chemists become more aware of the utility of VCD spectroscopy and provides them with sufficient knowledge to incorporate the technique into their own research.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Spectroscopy has become the organic chemist's most important tool in identifying compounds and studying their interactions. The arsenal of techniques available to the research chemist has, over the years, expanded from the familiar infrared, proton nmr and mass spectroscopy, to include the routine use of carbon-13 nmr spectroscopy and such modern methods of data acquisition as Fourier transform nmr, laser Raman spectroscopy, and UV spectroscopy. This book serves as an introduction to all of the major spectroscopic techniques, using over 200 actual spectra as examples, and providing a substantial number of problems and completely worked-through solutions that demonstrate how spectral techniques are applied to analytical problems. The book represents a significant departure from the scope of general spectroscopy texts. In addition to the usual chapters on infrared, proton nmr and mass spectroscopy, a number of increasingly important techniques have been included for the first time. Chapter 4, for instance, introduces not only the analysis of proton nmr spectra, but also describes iteration of theoretical nmr spectra for a best fit with observed experimental spectra using the popular LAOCOON III program. A complete FORTRAN listing for a conversational pendix I. Chapter 5 presents a non-mathematical description of Fourier transform nmr, including signal averaging, decoupling methods, quadrature detection, and the Fourier transform itself, and Chapter 6 goes on to describe Fourier transform techniques in carbon-13 spectroscopy. Chapter 7 introduces simple Huckel M.O. theory and the SHMO program for calculating the resonance stabilization of various systems, material which lays the groundwork for Chapter 8's discussion of ultraviolet spectroscopy using examples of ways in which energies can be correlated with SHMO parameters. A SHMO timesharing conversational program is listed in Appendix II. Finally, Chapter 10 outlines the organic chemical applications of laser Raman spectroscopy and the functional groups most easily identified using this method. Both organic chemists and graduate and advanced undergraduate students will find in the book's breadth of coverage an ideal introduction to the identification of organic compounds by spectroscopic means."- Publisher.
Download or read book Essential Practical NMR for Organic Chemistry written by S. A. Richards and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2010-12-07 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes the use of NMR spectroscopy for dealing with problems of small organic molecule structural elucidation. It features a significant amount of vital chemical shift and coupling information but more importantly, it presents sound principles for the selection of the techniques relevant to the solving of particular types of problem, whilst stressing the importance of extracting the maximum available information from the simple 1-D proton experiment and of using this to plan subsequent experiments. Proton NMR is covered in detail, with a description of the fundamentals of the technique, the instrumentation and the data that it provides before going on to discuss optimal solvent selection and sample preparation. This is followed by a detailed study of each of the important classes of protons, breaking the spectrum up into regions (exchangeables, aromatics, heterocyclics, alkenes etc.). This is followed by consideration of the phenomena that we know can leave chemists struggling; chiral centres, restricted rotation, anisotropy, accidental equivalence, non-first-order spectra etc. Having explained the potential pitfalls that await the unwary, the book then goes on to devote chapters to the chemical techniques and the most useful instrumental ones that can be employed to combat them. A discussion is then presented on carbon-13 NMR, detailing its pros and cons and showing how it can be used in conjunction with proton NMR via the pivotal 2-D techniques (HSQC and HMBC) to yield vital structural information. Some of the more specialist techniques available are then discussed, i.e. flow NMR, solvent suppression, Magic Angle Spinning, etc. Other important nuclei are then discussed and useful data supplied. This is followed by a discussion of the neglected use of NMR as a tool for quantification and new techniques for this explained. The book then considers the safety aspects of NMR spectroscopy, reviewing NMR software for spectral prediction and data handling and concludes with a set of worked Q&As.

Download or read book Spectrometric Identification of Organic Compounds written by Robert M. Silverstein and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2014-09-29 with total page 467 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published over 40 years ago, this was the first text on the identification of organic compounds using spectroscopy. This text is now considered to be a classic. This text presents a unified approach to the structure determination of organic compounds based largely on mass spectrometry, infrared (IR) spectroscopy, and multinuclear and multidimensional nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy.

Spectrometric Identification of Organic Compounds is written by and for organic chemists, and emphasizes the synergistic effect resulting from the interplay of the spectra. This book is characterized by its problem-solving approach with extensive reference charts and tables. The 8th edition of this text maintains its student-friendly writing style - wording throughout has been updated for consistency and to be more reflective of modern usage and methods. Chapter 3 on proton NMR spectroscopy has been overhauled and updated. Also, new information on polymers and phosphorus functional groups has been added to Chapter 2 on IR spectroscopy.
