The Systematic Identification of Organic Compounds A Laboratory Manual

Step-by-step instructions on identifying organic compounds. The steps described include elemental analysis, solubility, infrared spectra, nuclear magnetic resonance spectra, mass spectra, classification tests, and preparation of a derivative. Most directions for experiments are described in a micro or mini scale and clean up directions are given at the end of each procedure.Emphasizes the systematic approach to identifying unknowns.-- Offers a review of spectroscopy.-- Discusses infrared, nuclear magnetic resonance, and mass spectroscopy and includes examples of spectra.-- Discusses chromatography, distillations, and the separation of mixtures.
