"Consists of a carefully selected collection of solution spectra of compounds containing typical chromophoric groups, supplemented by tables showing the effects of substituents and solvents. Included ... are sections dealing with biologically important compounds, inorganic systems of interest to organic chemists, spectrophotometric standards and solvents, in addition to surveys of chromophoric groups."--Intro. The approximately 1,000 spectra are indexed by 13 basic chromophoric groups as well as by formula and alphabetically. Published 1966.
