About the Book

This book brings together all aspects of infrared and Raman spectroscopy and a range of their applications to inorganic, organic and coordination compounds. The revision of this popular book retains the main features of the earlier editions. However, the presentation has been updated and corrected. The chapter on organic spectroscopy has been considerably extended. The book gives the right level of details at the undergraduate and postgraduate levels presenting a coherent coverage of the topics in both core and specialist courses. Salient Features: A dedicated chapter on Group Theory for tackling many spectroscopy and bonding problems. Assignment spectral lines in terms of molecular structure is supported theoretically by normal coordinated analysis, which is discussed at length. Recent developments in non-linear Raman spectroscopy are dealt with. The text deals with the unfamiliar topic of infrared band intensities. Dedicated chapters on rotation and vibration-rotation spectroscopic methods. Infrared and Raman spectra of crystals and their theoretical analysis by factor group method. Around 180 problems showing working of their solution to aid conceptual understanding. The text is essential for all undergraduate and postgraduate students in chemistry, physics, biochemistry, pharmacology as well as in chemical industries.
