This book was written by an expert with long researching and teaching experience and is based on University NMR courses given in Russia, France, Spain, Switzerland and the USA. It is suitable both as a textbook for advanced undergraduate students and graduate students encountering nuclear magnetic relaxation for the first time, and also for professional researchers already actively using NMR spectroscopy in synthetic, physical, biological, pharmaceutical and industrial chemistry.
The book can be divided into two sections: chapters 1–6 teaching the basics and chapters 7–12 dealing with applications. Each chapter is referenced and includes well–organized illustrative material. The chapters in the first section deal with the basic theory of nuclear relaxation as physical phenomenon and are written in a simple and accessible form, thus readers do not need specialist knowledge of physics and NMR. As well as the theory behind nuclear relaxation this section considers important methodical aspects of relaxation experiments and analyzes their typical errors and problems. The aim of section is to overcome a situation where NMR is regarded by chemists as a ‘black box’. Chapters 7–11 provide practical examples of 1D and 2D NMR relaxation experiments and show how nuclear relaxation can be applied to qualitative structural diagnostics in solutions, quantitative structural investigations of diamagnetic and paramagnetic molecular systems, studies of weak intermolecular interactions, molecular mobility and chemical exchanges.
