Introduction to Infrared and Raman Spectroscopy

This desk reference, necessary for every practicing spectroscopist, represents the first definitive book written specifically to integrate knowledge about group frequencies in infrared as well as Raman spectra. In addition to detailing characteristic group frequencies of compounds from a comprehensive assortment of categories, the book includes a collection of spectra and a literature search conducted to verify existing correlations and to determine ways to enhance correlations between vibrational frequencies and molecular structure. Particular attention has been given to the correlation between Raman characteristic frequencies and molecular structure. Displaying infrared and Raman spectra and listing frequencies along with succinct, descriptive text, this handbook will provide a much needed reference for practicing vibrational spectroscopists in academia and industry.Colthup, Norman B. is the author of 'Introduction to Infrared and Raman Spectroscopy' with ISBN 9780121825546 and ISBN 012182554X.
