Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Volume 35 [Hardcover]

As a spectroscopic method, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) has seen spectacular growth, both as a technique and in its applications. Today's applications of NMR span a wide range of scientific disciplines, from physics to biology to medicine. Each volume of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance comprises a combination of annual and biennial reports which together provide comprehensive coverage of the literature on this topic. This Specialist Periodical Report reflects the growing volume of published work involving NMR techniques and applications, in particular NMR of natural macromolecules, which is covered in two reports: NMR of Proteins and Nucleic Acids; and NMR of Carbohydrates, Lipids and Membranes. For those wanting to become rapidly acquainted with specific areas of NMR, Nuclear Magnetic Resonance provides unrivalled scope of coverage. Seasoned practitioners of NMR will find this an invaluable source of current methods and applications. Specialist Periodical Reports provide systematic and detailed review coverage in major areas of chemical research. Compiled by teams of leading experts in their specialist fields, this series is designed to help the chemistry community keep current with the latest developments in their field. Each volume in the series is published either annually or biennially and is a superb reference point for researchers. www.rsc.org/sprChapter 1: NMR Books and Reviews; 1: Books; 2: Regular Reviews Series; 3: Edited Books and Symposia; 4: Reviews in Periodicals; 5: Reviews and Books in Foreign Languages; Chapter 2: Theoretical and Physical Aspects of Nuclear Shielding; 1: Theoretical Aspects of Nuclear Shielding; 1.1: General Theory; 1.2: Ab initio and DFT Calculations; 2: Physical Aspects of Nuclear Shielding; 2.1: Anisotropy of the Shielding Tensor; 2.2: Shielding Surfaces and Rovibrational Averaging; 2.3:Isotope Shifts; 2.4: Intermolecular Effects on Nuclear Shielding; 2.5: Absolute Shielding Scales; References; Chapter 3: Application of Nuclear Sl“.
