All the material and software presented are the essence of the two authors´ longstanding teaching experience.
Spectrometric Identification of Organic Compounds, 7th ed.
Originally published in 1962, this was the first book to explore the identification of organic compounds using spectroscopy. It provides a thorough introduction to the three areas of spectrometry most widely used in spectrometric identification: mass spectrometry, infrared spectrometry, and nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry. A how-to, hands-on teaching manual with considerably expanded NMR coverage--NMR spectra can now be intrepreted in exquisite detail. This book uses a problem-solving approach with extensive reference charts and tables, and offers an extensive set of real-data problems offers a challenge to the practicing chemist.
Spectrophotometry and Spectrofluorimetry: A Practical Approach, 2nd ed.
Optical spectroscopy underpins the day to day operations of most laboratories in the chemical, biological and medical sciences. This edition contains substantially updated and new chapters addressing the principles of the more common applications. In all chapters the emphasis is placed upon the practical aspects, with protocols for test experiments. Other chapters are included to introduce subjects that have traditionally depended upon spectroscopy, such as: basic enzyme kinetics, ligand binding, data handling, and the more recently established interest in the study of protein and DNA stability
Structural Identification of Organic Compounds with Spectroscopic Techniques
Professor Ning presents up-to-date developments in NMR, MS, IR and Raman spectroscopy, such as pulsed-field gradient technique, LC-NMR, and DOSY. This monograph features a unique structure, a typical example being the discussion of 2D NMR starting from pulse sequence units, which construct various pulse sequences for related 2D NMR. A complete chapter deals with the determination of configurations and conformations of organic compounds and even biological molecules from the viewpoint of spectroscopic methodologies, while one whole section is dedicated to the interpretation of mass spectra produced by soft ionization techniques. The principles of mass analyzers, especially the ion trap, are discussed in great depth, together with a concise summary of the MS fragmentation and rearrangement of common compounds.
Two-Dimensional NMR Spectroscopy: Applications for Chemists and Biochemists, 2nd ed.
This volume covers the new methodological advances in NMR spectroscopy that have developed since the publication of the first edition. These include: indirect detection methods, 3- and even higher-dimensional NMR methods and field gradient technology. This new edition retains the original format of the first edition with introductory chapters covering descriptions, basic theoretical treatments and experimental aspects of the methods, followed by application chapters.
This edition combines coverage of the principles underlying mass spectral analysis with clear guidelines on how to apply them in a laboratory setting. Completely revised, it provides an updated and unified approach to mass spectral interpretation that emphasizes the application of basic principles. A detailed overview of theory and instrumentation, this useful guide contains step-by-step descriptions of interpretative strategies and convenient lists and tables detailing the information needed to solve unknowns. Other features include real-world case studies and examples, skill-building problems with clearly explained answers, and easy-to-follow explanations of the important mathematical derivations.
Using Mass Spectrometry for Drug Metabolism Studies
Mass spectrometry is fast becoming the premier tool for analyzing various drug metabolism samples in the early phases of drug discovery and research. Introducing the newer, more powerful MS equipment and exploring new applications for using them, this book provides a state-of-the-art look at this field. It offers current knowledge in stand-alone chapters that address specific topics with notes and references to other chapters for further reading. The first eight chapters discuss current topics regarding the use of MS for analyzing various types of in vitro and in vivo drug metabolism samples and the final four chapters describe the latest MS technology and its uses. In each chapter, the authors demonstrate how to apply MS to determine drug metabolism parameters, and also explain the different drug metabolism concepts and their importance.
