Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy was performed oj a Nicolet 10DX spectrometer. Nuclear magnetic resonance ( H) characterization was accomplished using an IBM 270 SL. Both techniques can successfully be utilized to analyze both the diblock precursors as well as the derived acid containing polymers. 

Several modem analytical instruments are powerful tools for the characterisation of end groups. Molecular spectroscopic techniques are commonly employed for this purpose. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and mass spectrometry (MS), often in combination, can be used to elucidate the end group structures for many polymer systems more traditional chemical methods, such as titration, are still in wide use, but employed more for specific applications, for example, determining acid end group levels. Nowadays, NMR spectroscopy is usually the first technique employed, providing the polymer system is soluble in organic solvents, as quantification of the levels of... 

Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, ultraviolet-visible (UV-VIS) and fluorescence spectroscopy can be integrated with chromatographic techniques especially in the study of ageing and degradation of terpenic materials. They can be used to study the transformation, depletion or formation of specific functional groups in the course of ageing. 

Monitoring reaction progress throughout a multistep synthesis is a relatively difficult task.22 Typical methods used for solution-phase synthesis, including thin-layer chromatography (TLC), GC, and most types of mass spectrometry (MS), are less informative for solid-phase methods. However, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) are particularly useful in solid-phase strategies. 

Abstract—The nature of the product of the reaction between an aminated silane and carbon dioxide was re-examined with the aid of simple model compounds, several amines, and several aminosilanes. Since the reaction products previously proposed include the amine bicarbonate and a carbamate derived from the amine, ammonium bicarbonate and ammonium carbamate were studied as models for the anions. Carbon dioxide adducts of neat model amines were prepared and studied. Results from a variety of techniques are summarized. Among the most useful was Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy of fluorolube mulls. FTIR spectra were distinctive and assignments characteristic of the two species were extracted from the spectral data. Comparisons of these assignments with the products of the reaction between carbon dioxide and various amines were made. The results indicate that alkylammonium carbamates are the principal product. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra in D20 indicated much dissociation and were not helpful in defining the products.

The possibilities of application of far-UV circular dichroism (CD) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy in analysis of thermal stability of proteins and structural changes within protein molecules as well in explanation of cross reactivity between food allergens have been described in more detail in Section 3.4. Likewise nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), especially 2D and multidimensional NMR as well as the method based on diffraction of monochromatic x-rays widely used in examination of tertiary structures of allergens have been described in Section 3.4 and by Neudecker et al. (2001) and Schirmer et al. (2005). 

Misra et al. [113] have reported the synthesis and optical/electrical properties of new 5-coordinated Al-complexes designed as Alq(l) and Alq(2). The complexes are vacuum evaporable as well as soluble in many organic solvents. EL peaks of these new complexes emit in the range 522-523 nm, which is nearly 8 nm blue shifted compared to that of Alq3. The chemical structures of the complexes were determined with the help of the Hydrogen Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (HNMR) and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy techniques. The structure of these complexes is shown in Fig. 4.13.

Transition metal coordination of Cu(II) carboxylate groups and pyridine groups was employed as a means of coupling a telechelic butadiene-base polymer with a randomly functionalized styrenic polymer. Dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) indicated partial miscibility of the two polymers and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy demonstrated that interactions occurred on a molecular level. When compared with blends of PSVP and the free acid derivative of CTB, the compositions based on the transition metal complex had improved dimensional stability at elevated temperatures, though there remains some question as to the stability of the copper salt to hydrolysis. Electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy showed that only the... 

Investigations of the acidity of specific surface sites may be accomplished by studies coordinated with spectroscopic methods, such as infrared (JR) spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, or mass spectrometry (MS). Surface characterization with Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy can provide quantitative results with experimental methods that are easily performed. However, the transmission sampling techniques traditionally employed for infrared studies may introduce experimental artifacts on the analyzed surface (10,... 

While advances in automation have increased the throughput of polymer synthesis, macromolecular characterization remains a significant bottleneck in high-throughput approaches. Typical characterization methods such as matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy are not yet amenable to high-throughput analysis, while Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy is now available...
