Theory and Interpretation of Magnetic Resonance Spectra

It is amazing how much information can be gleaned from a magnetic resonance spectrum by one who knows. That series of lines on chart paper may conceal anything from energies of activation and spin densities, to conformations and differentiation of isomers. In order to be able to deduce such things a...
