Abstract

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is usually combined with infrared (IR) spectroscopy for the complete analysis of the structure of an unknown molecule. IR spectroscopy is used to detect a functional group in the sample, whereas NMR spectroscopy detects number of atoms and their type in sample. NMR technique can detect many nuclei but mostly identifies carbon-hydrogen frameworks. In this chapter, we have comprehensively discussed the NMR spectroscopy, its types, basic mechanism along with its instrumentation, applications, advantages, and disadvantages.
