Course Notes on the Interpretation of Infrared and Raman Spectra [Hardcover]

Interpretation of IR and Raman Spectra provides the fundamentals ofinterpreting IR and Raman spectra of complex molecules primarilyorganic molecules. Examinations of theory provide a basis forpredicting functional group frequency location in new molecularstructures.
* Generously enriched with sample exercises to help rapidlydevelop powerful interpretive skills.
* Includes appendices with fourteen bibliographies by subjectarea.Foreword.
