Publisher's Synopsis
This summary of modern applications of 31P NMR spectroscopy in organic and coordination chemistry brings together 20 of the world's best-known researchers in the field. The book is aimed at introducing the topic to chemists who are considering the use of 31P NMR spectroscopy and at aiding more experienced chemists in filling out their knowledge as well as supplying them with relevant references.;The authors describe the significance of 31P NMR shifts as well as experimental techniques and the underlying theory. Among the topics discussed are applications of shift measurements in solving structural, conformational and mechanism problems, and the concept of stereospecificity in 31P couplings. Tabular data on representative inorganic, organic, and biochemical compounds and data on compounds associated with new frontiers in phosphorus chemistry, such as low-coordinate and hypervalent phosphorus systems, are also included.
