NMR spectroscopy is a powerful tool that is used in many disciplines and is centrally important to the undergraduate curriculum. Over the course of the past 70 years, NMR has developed into a robust, multifaceted technique with multiple applications. This book demonstrates a variety of applications of many different types of NMR spectroscopies in upper-level courses and across the curriculum.

This third volume of NMR Spectroscopy in the Undergraduate Curriculum continues the work we started with the first and second volumes in providing effective approaches for using nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometers as powerful tools for investigating a wide variety of phenomena at the undergraduate level. This volume focuses on upper-level courses and NMR spectroscopy across the curriculum. The applications and strategies in this volume will be helpful to those
who are looking to transform their curriculum by integrating more NMR spectroscopy, to those who might not have considered NMR spectroscopy as a tool for solving certain types of problems, or for those seeking funding for a new or replacement NMR spectrometer.

Dr. David Soulsby obtained his undergraduate degree in chemistry from the University of Lancaster, England. He then attended University of Colorado Boulder and obtained a Ph.D. in organic chemistry. He began his academic career at the University of Redlands in 2001 where he is currently a professor of chemistry. Dr. Laura J. Anna earned her B.S. in chemistry from Indiana University of Pennsylvania where she had her first introduction to NMR spectroscopy on a 60 MHz instrument. She obtained her Ph.D. in organic chemistry from the University of Michigan investigating applications of chiral vinyl sulfoxides in the asymmetric synthesis of natural products with Dr. Joseph P. Marino. She began her academic career at Millersville University, Millersville, PA, where she was a professor of chemistry for 14 years working with 200 MHz and 400 MHz high field NMR instruments. She transitioned to Montgomery College, Rockville, MD, in 2011, where she is now professor of chemistry and department chair. Dr. Anton S. Wallner earned his undergraduate degree in chemistry from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. After graduating, he attended the University of Michigan (M.S. analytical chemistry), and obtained a Ph.D. in physical chemistry from Case Western Reserve University. He began his academic career in 1992 at Missouri Western State University. He moved to Barry University in 2000 as chair and professor of chemistry in the Department of Physical Sciences. In 2008, he became Associate Dean of Undergraduate Programs at Barry University. He most recently served a two and a half year term as Interim Chair of Mathematics and Computer Science (2014-2016).
