Applications of Mass Spectrometry to Organic Sterochemistry

Packed with reviews plus new results from the author's laboratories, the first-of-its-kind work offers a timely and authoritative treatise on the use of mass spectral techniques in organic stereochemistry.

Featuring 22 chapters contributed by eminent and active researchers in the field, this unique sourcebook offers comparative information on the use of a variety of mass-spectral techniques to characterize stereoisomers and conformers of both large and small biologically important organic molecules. It also discusses techniques for studying gas-phase conformational equilibria in conformationally mobil systems.

Applications of Mass Spectrometry to Organic Stereochemistry will dramatically aid the lab applications of organic, biological, pharmaceutical, and analytical chemists in university and industrial laboratories.Mit zahlreichen und aktuellen Ergebnissen aus den Labors der Autoren behandelt dieses erste Werk seiner Art detailliert die massenspektrometrischen Techniken in der organischen Stereochemie.

In 22 Kapiteln von aktiven und wichtigen Fachleuten auf diesem Gebiet bringt dieses Buch einzigartige Informationen über den Nutzen massenspektrometrischer Verfahren bei der Charakterisierung von Stereo- und Konformationsisomeren sowohl von großen als auch von kleinen biologisch wichtigen organischen Molekülen. Weiter werden auch Verfahren diskutiert, um Konformationsgleichgewichte der Gasphase in entsprechend variablen Systemen zu untersuchen.

Applications of Mass Spectrometry to Organic Stereochemistry ist eine unverzichtbare Hilfe bei den Laborarbeiten von organischen, biologischen, pharmazeutischen und analytischen Chemikern an Universitäten und in der Industrie. From the Contents:
