Reviews
Computer-assisted structure elucidation (CASE) aims to provide users in chemistry, molecular biology, or other areas dealing with structures of small molecules with suggestions on the structural identity of molecules based on spectroscopic, chromatographic and other boundary information. With Contemporary computer-assisted approaches to molecular structure elucidation , Mikhail Elyashberg, Anthony Williams and Kirill Blinov, all world-renowned experts on the topic, have recently written a normative standard text-book on the topic. Published by RSC publishing in 2012 and on 481 pages, the book provides a comprehensive overview on computer-assisted structure elucidation. The book is divided into three parts (Basics of CASE, Overview of CASE systems, and a comprehensive discussion of their own system, Structure Elucidator) comprised of overall 14 chapters. As the authors point out, the CASE process can be reduced to logically interfering `the most probable structural hypothesis from a set of statements reflecting the interrelation between a spectrum and structure'. Given that every human expert in structure elucidation will be biased by his or her own education, history of certain compound classes worked on, or types of spectroscopy used, CASE systems can be incredibly valuable by suggesting solutions to the structure elucidation problem outside of our range of experience. The book delivers what the title promises. I have been working on CASE systems in the last 15 years and wrote a number of reviews on the topic. This is clearly the most comprehensive book on the topic on the market and generally a valuable resource for anyone working in the area of structure elucidation of small molecules. -- C.

Author Information
Professor Mikhail E. Elyashberg graduated from the Faculty of Physics at the University of Tomsk, Russia. He obtained a PhD from the Moscow Pedagogical University and Dr. Chem. Sci from the Institute of Geochemistry and Analytical Chemistry at the Russian Academy of Sciences (GEOKHI RAS). He headed the Laboratory of Molecular Spectroscopy at the All-Russian Institute for Organic Synthesis in Moscow (1981-2001). Since 1995, has been the leading researcher at GEOKHI RAS and in 2001, he became Senior Scientist at Advanced Chemistry Development Ltd. (ACD) in Moscow. Professor Elyashberg is a Laureate of the State Prize of the Russian Federation, the highest scientific award in Russia. Antony J. Williams graduated with a BSc and PhD in chemistry from the University of Liverpool and University of London respectively. He subsequently became a Post-doctoral Fellow at the National Research Council in Ottawa and then an NMR Facility Director at the University of Ottawa. He has also worked as an NMR Technology Leader at Eastman-Kodak in Rochester and held a number of positions, including Chief Science Officer, at ACD/Labs. In 2007, he established ChemZoo, Inc and became host of ChemSpider, one of the primary internet portals for chemistry. ChemSpider was acquired by the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) in 2009 and Dr. Williams is currently Vice-President of Strategic Development at the RSC. Kirill A. Blinov received his MSc in Chemistry from Moscow State University. He started working on Computer-Assisted Structure Elucidation (CASE) systems in 1996 and is currently a senior scientist at Advanced Chemistry Development Inc. He is the primary architect of the ACD/Structure Elucidator software program and co-inventor of the indirect covariance processing algorithms used for the processing of 2D NMR spectroscopy data.
