My question may be a little bit extraordinary.
I have a pdf document containing 200 spectroscopic problems, unfortunately, with no answers. I've been considering buying the full version of this book, so that I could check my solutions. Trouble is, I don't know the name of the book. I can only describe it and hope that maybe someone will recognize it.
Here's my description:
- there are 200 problems in the book, they're labeled "problem 1", "problem 2" ... "problem 200"
- problems 1-176 contain virtually no text but 4 or 5 diagrams: IR Spectrum, Mass Spectrum, 13C NMR Spectrum, 1H NMR Spectrum and in some cases also UV Spectrum; the aim is to solve the structure of the compound with given molecular formula
- problems 177-200 are more difficult, they contain almost no spectral diagrams; one has to draw a predicted spectrum instead, or calculate some coupling constants, for example
I'm not sure if anyone is able to guess the title of the book out of these clues. Anyway, write me at least some titles of the books about spectroscopy where one can practice solving spectral problems (IR, MS, NMR) and then check the answers. Thank you.

Pretty sure the book you're after is called "Organic Structures from Spectra" by L.D. Field, S. Sternhell and J.R. Kalman.

You need to be aware that there are no answers in the book. In a lot of cases, you can cross check your answers with SDBS, but not always! The latest edition (4th edition) now has 332 problems in it though, so if you want some more maybe buy it anyway!
