Chemical shifts, spin-spin coupling, and structural elucidation of organic molecules. Observing how matter changes with temperature
A significant portion of the book is dedicated to the interaction of electromagnetic radiation with matter, including techniques like UV-Visible Spectrophotometry for quantitative analysis, Infrared (IR) Spectroscopy for identifying functional groups, Raman Spectroscopy as a complementary technique, and Microwave Spectroscopy for studying molecular rotations. It also covers advanced topics like Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) , Flame Emission Spectroscopy (FES) , Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectroscopy , and Mass Spectrometry (MS) , which provide detailed structural information.
