This Organic Chemistry textbook provides a comprehensive introduction to the subject, starting with basic concepts and progressing through increasingly complex reactions and compounds. Initial chapters cover essential reactions, such as acid-base, substitution, addition-elimination, and oxidation-reduction, focusing on single and two-carbon compounds to build foundational understanding. Subsequent chapters delve into nomenclature, molecular structure, stereochemistry, and reaction mechanisms in greater detail. The book also includes significant sections on spectroscopy, hydrocarbons, conjugation, aromatic stability, and coal chemistry. Later chapters offer flexibility for course customization, ensuring coverage of essential topics while allowing for elective subjects, making it suitable for both semester and quarter systems.

A researcher trying to predict or interpret spectra of transition metal ionsin possible laser host materials is confronted with a variety of different methods of describing the same physical situation. This book provides a systematic approach to the applied theory of crystal-field interactions of transition metal ions in 49 crystalline hosts that are or show promise of being good laser materials. The tables that make up the main part of the book present the experimentally determined parameters of the 3dN, 4dN, and 5dN transition-metal ions in the second, third, and fourth ionization states. These parameters have been converted to Slater and crystal-field parameters. The book is a source for research workers in laser development and in crystal-field theory, and for graduate students of solid state chemistry and physics.

NMR Spectroscopy of Polymers places emphasis on the practical use of NMR spectroscopy in polymer chemistry rather than the theoretical treatments. Based on the authors' extensive experimental experience, topics covered include (1) experimental problems such as preparation of sample solution, selection of solvent, internal standard and tube, and contaminants in sample solution, (2) accuracy and precision of NMR measurements required in the analysis of polymer structure such as tacticity, copolymer composition and chain end structures, (3) volume magnetic susceptibility by NMR, (4) stereochemistry of polymer chains, chemical composition and comonomer sequence distribution in copolymers, and end groups and irregular linkages, (5) on-line coupled size exclusion chromatography(SEC) and NMR spectroscopy(SEC/NMR) in which an NMR spectrometer is set in the SEC system as a detector.

This book gives a semiquantitative understanding of the properties observed in luminescence, i.e., where energy absorption and emission occur, and with what efficiency these conversion processes take place. The authors give a correct treatment of the offset dependence and the temperature dependence of nonradiative rates. The Wp function is defined as the sum of thermally weighted Franck-Condon factors. It is obtained in one dimension in several forms, and a useful recursion relation is derived between Wp's with nearby p indices. Two classes of applications are considered. First, an exposition of the broad classes of luminescence behavior is given and the Wp function and related functions are applied to each. Then the detailed application of these functions to specific experimental data, namely, to Eu3+, Tm3+, and Yb3+ in oxysulfides and oxychlorides and to Cr3+ in ruby is extensively discussed. The authors give a thorough review of the related literature. The many exact and approximate forms, some with certain errors, for Wp and related functions are listed and their relationship to Wp are given.
