New Book: A Comprehensive Guide to Infrared and Raman Spectra of Inorganic and Coordination Compounds.


DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c61745) has announced the addition of Infrared and Raman Spectra of Inorganic and Coordination Compounds, Part A and Part B, Two Volume Set, 6th Edition to their offering.

The 6th edition of this classic work comprises the most comprehensive guide to Infrared and Raman spectra of inorganic, organometallic organometallic /or·ga·no·me·tal·lic/ (-me-tal´ik) consisting of a metal combined with an organic radical, used particularly for a compound in which the metal is linked directly to a carbon atom. , bioinorganic bi·o·in·or·gan·ic

Of or having to do with inorganic compounds and their role in biochemical processes.
, and coordination compounds. From fundamental theories of vibrational spectroscopy to applications in a variety of compound types, the Sixth Edition has been thoroughly updated with the most relevant topics.

Part A of this two-volume work describes basic theories of normal vibrations including the method of normal coordinate analysis, resonance Raman spectroscopy Resonance Raman (RR) spectroscopy is a specialized implementation of the more general Raman spectroscopy. Overview
As in Raman spectroscopy, RR spectroscopy provides information about the vibrations of molecules, and can also be used for identifying unknown substances.
, and vibrational analysis of crystals in clear and precise terms, and applies them to relatively simple inorganic compounds while leaving the applications to larger and more complex systems to Part B.

* This new edition incorporates new topics such as the theoretical calculations of vibrational frequencies(DFT DFT - discrete Fourier transform  method), chemical synthesis by matrix co-condensation reactions, time-resolved Raman spectroscopy, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy, high-pressure spectroscopy, isotope separation of U235 and U238 by laser irradiation, C60 and other fullerenes, endo and exo-hedral fullerenes, and carbon nanotubes

* Reviews and offers numerous references to the recent research in the field (updated through 2006)

* Provides many infrared and Raman spectral charts of typical compounds

* Used independently or in combination with Part B, this volume proves a primary resource for the inorganic, coordination, organometallic, or bioinorganic chemist as well as the medical professional working with infrared or raman spectroscopies. Additionally, it provides an excellent textbook for graduate-level course work.

Part B of this two-volume work describes in detail applications of Raman and IR spectroscopy to larger and complex systems.

This new edition incorporates:

* extensive new data in each section

* interactions of cisplatin cisplatin /cis·plat·in/ (sis´plat-in) DDP; a platinum coordination complex capable of producing inter- and intrastrand DNA crosslinks; used as an antineoplastic.
