NMR Bibliography

Beginners

"Nuclear Magnetic Resonance" Oxford Chemistry Primer No. 32, P.J. Hore, Oxford University Press, 1994.

Cheap, thin, readable, green and good.

Intermediate

"Modern NMR Spectroscopy", J.K.M. Sanders and B. K. Hunter, Second Edition, Oxford University Press, 1993.

A very readable text at a level slightly lower level than Derome (next).

"Modern NMR Techniques for Chemistry Research", A. E. Derome, Pergamon Press, 1987.

Largely out of date now, but one of the best NMR books ever.

"NMR Spectroscopy", R. K. Harris, Pitman Books, 1983.

A more mathematical approach.

Practical

"150 And More Basic NMR Experiments : A Practical Course", Siegmar Braun, Hans-Otto Kalinowski, Stefan Berger, John Wiley and Sons, 1998.

How to run more experiments than you can poke a stick at by yourself, mostly with Bruker spectrometers in mind.

Advanced

"Two-Dimensional NMR Spectroscopy : Applications for Chemists and Biochemists", W.R Croasmun and R.M.K. Carlson, VCH publishers, 1994.

Graham's personal recommendation for those late nights on the spectrometer.

"Carbon-13 NMR spectroscopy", E. Breitmaier and W. Voelter, VCH publishers, 1987.

Good for ¹³C chemical shift and coupling data.

"Principles of NMR in One and Two Dimensions", R. R. Ernst, G. Bodenhausen and A. Wokaun, Oxford University Press, 1986.

A bible of theory. Highly mathematical, for the extremely serious only!
