A Guide for Selecting NMR Techniques

NMR is one of the most important techniques for chemical analysis analysis. However, the numerous and subtle differences between various types of NMR techniques have evolved to the point where potential NMR users are confronted by a bewildering array of possible methods for solving chemical problems. The acronyms associated with the technique (COSY, TOCSY, NOSEY, and ROESY) can make the science sound like a Dr. Seuss book at times. Usually a problem may be solved using many different techniques but deciding on which one to use first is often a confusing and time-wasting process. A Guide for Selecting NMR Techniques differs from the many other books on NMR in that it pulls the entire NMR together in a single source designed to lead the reader through the maze of possible techniques in order to find the optimum method to solve a particular problem.
