This volume presents in the form of texts, tables, charts and graphs a modern compilation of spectroscopic reference data for IR, UV/Vis, 1H- and 13C-NMR, MS (incl. prototype spectra of almost every important class of organic compounds and spectra of MALDI and FAB matrix materials) and is intended as a short textbook and a hands-on guide for interpreting experimental spectral data and elucidating the chemical structure of the respective compound behind it. The concise texts include special chapters on fragmentation rules in mass spectrometry and on currently used multipulse and 2-D NMR techniques. The book is primarily designed for students to be used during courses and exercises. The use of the book requires only basic knowledge of spectroscopic techniques, but is structured in such a way that it will support practitioners routinely faced with the task of interpreting such spectral information, and it will serve as data reference for specialists in the fields.

The book begins with correlation tables for H and C NMR, IR, UV, and MS. The mass spectrometry sections includes common fragments, absolute masses, isotopes and isotope patterns of all the natural elements and halogen combinations. The next section contains combinations. The next section contains combination tables, based on functional group, which list the characteristic spectral values for each spectral method, with useful comments. This section would be a very valuable introduction for beginning students. The book comes with a CD which has programs for molecular drawing, all structures possible for a given formula, and estimation of H and C NMR chemical shifts, limited to 15 heavy atoms. R.

Chemistry, RMIT University Chemistry in Australia, Magazine of the Royal Australian Chemical Institute, 2001, Vol. 68, Issue 5, p. 36 This book is intended as a short textbook and a hands-on guide for interpreting experimental spectral data and elucidating the chemical structure of the compound behind it. This is the third, and completely revised, edition of the book whose earlier editions were highly successful. The new edition follows the same basic concepts as earlier editions, in that it provides a representative set of reference data for the interpretation of C NMR, H NMR, IR, mass and UV/Vis spectra. The amount of reference data has been doubled (especially for MS and IR) and the order and selection of data for the various spectroscopic methods is now arranged strictly in the same way. The CD-ROM supplied with the book contains programs for estimating NMR chemical shifts and generating isomers based on structural information. An extensive hypertext-based tutorial describes the main features of the programs. The book should be considered as a supplement to textbooks and reference words dealing with the particular spectroscopic techniques which generate the data included in the book.
