Organic Spectroscopic Structure Determination

Organic Spectroscopic Structure Determination is a sophomore-level book with empahssi on structure problem solving. It consists of four sections that attempt to engage the imagination of the student. Taber has arranged the material in such a way that the students can work the problems and lear the procedures on their own, minimizing the time taken in lecture. The first section will be three chapters of instruction on the methods of organic spectroscopy. Thesecond will be fifty problems with just data sets of spectroscopic data. The third will be fifty problems that show starting materials and reaction conditions, with spectroscopic data for the product. The final section will include tables of spectroscopic data. The author plans to supply ten pressspectroscopy problems each year to use with exams.
