Qualitative Organic Analysis: Spectrochemical Techniques

The book offers a system for identifying organic compounds, guiding students through the methods and philosophies that research chemists use to characterize substances.

It bridges the gap between modern spectroscopy and traditional « test-tube » chemical reactions, explicitly noting where chemical methods are rendered obsolete by spectroscopic data.

This second edition has been thoroughly revised to incorporate the growing importance of carbon-13 NMR spectroscopy, including updated correlation data.

The content provides expanded coverage of the separation of mixtures, creating a unique synthesis of spectroscopic and chemical evidence for laboratory students.
