Bücher der Reihe Oxford Chemistry Primers

In this text, the study of thermodynamics is manipulated against the normal course of study. While students and academics will learn the concepts, formulas, and laws of thermodynamics, they will also begin to understand the historical circumstance behind it all.

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance offers an accessible introduction to the physical principles of liquid-state NMR, with examples, applications, and exercises provided throughout to enable beginning undergraduates to get to grips with this important analytical technique.

This primer describes succinctly the range of NMR techniques commonly used in modern research, and explains how these experiments actually work, giving a unique perspective on this powerful experimental tool.

Process development bridges the gap between the laboratory synthesis of an organic compound and its industrial manufacture on a large scale. This book uses real examples to show the range of problems which may be encountered in scaling up chemical syntheses and the ways in which they may be overcome.
