Molecular Spectroscopy Volume 4
Description
Product Description
Specialist Periodical Reports provide systematic and detailed review coverage of progress in the major areas of chemical research. Written by experts in their specialist fields the series creates a unique service for the active research chemist, supplying regular critical in-depth accounts of progress in particular areas of chemistry. For over 80 years the Royal Society of Chemistry and its predecessor, the Chemical Society, have been publishing reports charting developments in chemistry, which originally took the form of Annual Reports. However, by 1967 the whole spectrum of chemistry could no longer be contained within one volume and the series Specialist Periodical Reports was born. The Annual Reports themselves still existed but were divided into two, and subsequently three, volumes covering Inorganic, Organic and Physical Chemistry. For more general coverage of the highlights in chemistry they remain a 'must'. Since that time the SPR series has altered according to the fluctuating degree of activity in various fields of chemistry. Some titles have remained unchanged, while others have altered their emphasis along with their titles; some have been combined under a new name whereas others have had to be discontinued. The current list of Specialist Periodical Reports can be seen on the inside flap of this volume.

Microwave Spectroscopy
BY J. N. MACDONALD AND J. SHERIDAN
1 Introduction
We have retained a general continuity with Volume 3, and regarded work in Chemical Titles before NO. 7 of 1974 as normally covered earlier. For timeliness, however, we have included as many as possible of the papers appearing up to the manuscript stage. Inevitably, some recent studies will be considered in the next Report. Subject to limitations through inconsistencies in titling and keyword listing, a d through the widening of fields which are closely related to microwave (MW) spectroscopy, we have covered finalized publications to September 1975.
While much work remains in what may now be called classical MW spectroscopy, an increasing proportion concerns newer methods and areas, notably double resonance (DR) involving i.r. and u.v.-visible radiation, and studies of time-dependent effects. After considering techniques, in which we include chemical analytical procedures and some purely analytical applications, we deal with some generalities of the derivation of molecular information from spectra and proceed to the discussion of predominantly structural studies through a convenient empirical classification of the molecules concerned, chosen to group together structures with their present MW interest in common. We treat separately the MW spectroscopy of molecules in space, and work primarily concerned with time-dependence and collisional effects.
The flow of new studies towards formal publication is, as always, valuably indicated in the proceedings of conferences, notably the Third European MW Spectroscopy Conference at Venice in 1974, the Fourth Colloquium on High Resolution Molecular Spectroscopy at Tours in 1975, and the 29th and 30th Symposia on Molec
