A major challenge in structural analysis is not only the structures of single molecules, but also their interactions. This book is intended for advanced readers, and reviews all relevant techniques for structure analysis in one handy volume. It provides the latest knowledge on spectroscopic and related techniques for chemical structure analysis, such as NMR, optical spectroscopy, mass spectrometry and X-ray crystallography, with particular emphasis on the scope and limitation of each method. Readers will not only become acquainted with the techniques, but also the advantages of the synergies between them, enabling a time- and resource efficient choice of analytical method for each problem to be made. Special emphasis is placed on NMR and its application to absolute configuration determination and the analysis of molecular interactions.
Adopting a practical point of view, the author team from academia and industry guarantees both solid methodology and applications essential for structure determination, equipping experts as well as newcomers with the tools to solve any structural problem.
