Infrared Spectral Interpretation: A Systematic Approach
Acerca deste libro electrónico
Discussions include:
- Science of infrared interpretation
- Light and molecular vibrations
- How and why molecules absorb infrared radiation
- Peak heights, intensities, and widths
- Hydrocarbons, carbonyl groups, and molecules with C-N bonds
- Polymers and inorganic molecules
- The use of atlases, library searching, spectral subtraction, and the Internet in augmenting interpretation
Each chapter presents an introduction to the nomenclature and structure of a specific functional group and proceeds with the important diagnostic bands for each group. Infrared Spectral Interpretation serves both novices and experienced practitioners in this field.
The author maintains a website and blog with supplemental material. His training course schedule is also available online.
