    The discussion presented in this module was intended to introduce NMR at an introductory level with a focus on its application for quantitative measurements. Students interested in a deeper treatment of NMR theory are encouraged to review the resources below:

    Books

    • Understanding NMR Spectroscopy by James Keeler, Wiley (2005).
    • High-Resolution NMR Techniques in Organic Chemistry by Timothy Claridge, Elsevier (1999).
