VCD Spectroscopy for Organic Chemists

By James R Cheeseman, Frank J Devlin, Philip John Stephens, et al.

Book Overview

Currently, chiral drugs are a major focus of pharmaceutical companies. This book presents the technique of Vibrational Circular Dichroism (VCD) spectroscopy and discusses its applications to the structural characterization of chiral organic molecules. The book provides all of the information about VCD spectroscopy that an organic chemist needs in order to make use of the technique. The authors, experts responsible for much of the existing literature in this field, discuss the experimental measurement of VCD and the theoretical prediction of VCD. They also evaluate the advantages and limitations of the technique in determining molecular structure.
