How can spectroscopic data lead to misinterpretations?
Techniques like infrared spectroscopy (IR) or nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) provide insights into the molecular structure and dynamics of catalysts. However, these methods can produce complex data that require careful analysis. Misinterpretation can occur if the data is over-simplified or if critical signals are overlooked. Expertise in these techniques and complementary methods can reduce the likelihood of errors.
