KEMS5380 Basics of NMR Spectroscopy (4 cr)
Description
Content
The aim of this course is to explore nuclear magnetic resonance as a phenomenon and to cover factors influencing on chemical shifts and spin-spin coupling (first and higher order couplings) together with 1D/2D NMR experiments based on it in more detail. Within the exercises simple 1D/2D NMR spectra will be analyzed. Additionally, instrumental considerations, data collection, and processing are introduced at a theoretical level.

20-22 p = 4
17-19 p = 3
14-16 p = 2
11-13 p = 1
< 11 p = F
5 (excellent): The student has achieved the learning objectives of the course and is able to apply what he/she has learned in practice.
4 (very good): The student has achieved most of the learning objectives of the course and is usually able to apply what he/she has learned in practice.
3 (good): The student has achieved part of the learning objectives of the course. He/she is partly able to apply what he/she has learned in practice.
2 (satisfactory): The student knows the basic terms and phenomena. The student is able to apply what he/she has learned in simple cases.
1 (sufficient): The student knows some of the basic terms and part of the phenomena. The student's ability to apply what he/she has learned in practice is insufficient.
