Spectrometric Identification of Organic Compounds, 7th Edition
Date: Oct 11, 2005
Author: Robert M. Silverstein, Francis X. Webster, David Kiemle
First published over 40 years ago, this was the first text on the identification of organic compounds using spectroscopy. This text is now considered to be a classic. The key strength of this text is the extensive set of real-data problems (in Chapters 7 and 8). Even professional chemists use these spectra as reference data. Spectrometric Identification of Organic Compounds is written by and for organic chemists, and emphasizes the synergistic effect resulting from the interplay of the spectra. This...
