BOOKS
Basic One- and Two-Dimensional NMR Spectroscopy.
H. Friebolin (@ Heidelberg, Germany), 2nd ed.;
VCH, Weinheim, Germany, 1993. ISBN 1-56081-796-6.
This book is the book on NMR used in the course. (And, yes, I
know the binding of this book is just horrible (!) and that might be a
reason for not using it again.)
Modern NMR Techniques for Chemistry Research.
A. E. Derome (used to be @ Oxford, UK, died young);
Tetrahedron Organic Chemistry Series, Vol. 6, J. E. Baldwin, P. D.
Magnus, Eds.; Pergamon Press, Tarrytown, New York, 1987 (reprinted in 1993).
ISBN 0-08-032513-0
(flexicover).
An excellent book that provides great detail and many well selected
examples. Covers all the 1D and 2D experiments discussed in this course.
Modern NMR Spectroscopy - A Guide for Chemists.
J. K. M. Sanders (@Cambridge, UK), B. K. Hunter (@Queen's University,
Kingston, Ontario); 2nd ed.;
Oxford University Press, Oxford, UK, 1993.
ISBN 0-19-855567-9 (paperback).
I like this book for several reasons. To begin with: It has a chapter on
solids (chapter 9) and that is rare for textbooks. The chapters are very
well organized and the illustrations are quite good. This is a good and
more complete alternative to Friebolin and it might well be my future
choice for teaching Chemistry 416.
NMR Spectroscopy - Basic principles, concepts, and applications in
chemistry.
H. Guenther (@ University of Siegen), 2nd ed.;
John Wiley & Sons, 1995.
ISBN 0-471-95201-X (paperback).
This is a very thick book, almost 600 pages, and it has wonderful detail.
The German first edition was the book to study when I was a
graduate student in Germany. Since then the chapters on dynamic NMR, NOE,
and 2D-methods have been greatly enhanced. There is a lot of detail in
here and it takes time to read all this. Might be best to use this book
sporadically to deepen your knowledge of certain aspects.
Structure Elucidation by Modern NMR - A Workbook.
H. Duddeck, W. Dietrich (both authors are the University of Bochum,
Germany); Steinkopff Verlag Darmstadt, Springer Verlag, New
York, New York, 1992. With Prefaces by J. B. Stothers and K.
Nakanishi.
ISBN 0-387-91425-0.
(flexicover).
Possibly the best book to learn 2D-NMR techniques by working examples.
This book will be a required text the next time this course is taught.
The book poses 33 exercises, then presents a chapter to discuss
strategy for each of the exercises, and then the solutions
are presented. Very very useful.
One-dimensional and Two-dimensional NMR Spectra by Modern Pulse
Techniques.
K. Nakanishi (both (!) @ Columbia, New York, and Osaka, Japan), Ed.;
University Science Books, Mill Valley, California,
1990
ISBN 0-935702-63-6.
(flexicover).
Part I contains 31 examples of 1-D NMR applications and Part II contains
61 examples of 2-D NMR applications.
Part III is a very successful brief review of 1-D and 2-D NMR methods.
The examples are based on rather complicated molecules; this is the beauty
of the book and it also is its drawback. A wonderful resource for
somebody whi really is into NMR. The book to read after having worked
through Duddeck & Diederich.
A Handbook of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance.
Ray Freeman (@ Oxford, UK), Longman Scientific & Technical, John Wiley &
Sons, 1987
ISBN 0-582-00390-3 (CSD) & ISBN 0-582-00574-4 (PPR).
If you know a lot already and you really want to know all the detail, this
book gives highly physical but pictorial and non-mathematical
explanations! Certainly too much for Chemistry 416.
Theory of Magnetic Resonance.
C. P. Poole, Jr.; H. A. Farach (@ Univ. of South Carolina, Columbia, and
yes, they are in physics); 2nd. ed.;
A Wiley-Interscience Publication, John Wiley &
Sons, 1987
ISBN 0-471-81530-6.
I have not read this book as yet.
High Resolution NMR - Theory and Chemical Applications.
E. D. Becker, (@ NIH, Bethesda, Chemical Physics); 2nd.
ed.; Academic Press, New York, New York, 1980
ISBN 0-12-084660-8.
I have not read this book in much detail. What I have read I liked.

Pretch, E.; Clerc, T.; Simon, W.; Seibl, J.
Springer-Verlag, 2nd ed., 1989.
A must have.
