Expert Review
"Dr. Adam's book presents a very useful compilation of more than 1,600 mass spectra of terpenes, aliphatic esters, hydrocarbons, aromatics and other compounds encountered in natural products chemistry, especially the chemistry of essential oils. Not only are the mass spectra given but the compound's Retention Index on the commonly used DB-5 glc column are included. There are indices of the Retention Index arranged both alphabetically and in Retention Index order, making it a very practical tool for use in natural products research. I have found this work extremely useful in my work in natural products chemistry."
