Description

Content

1H-, 13C-, 13C DEPT-135-, 1H-1H COSY-, 1H-13C HMQC- and 1H-13C HMBC NMR-spectra and their utilization in structural analysis, sample preparation, measurement of spectra and processing of the data, spectral interpretation exercises, and demonstration on the spectrometer.

Completion methods

In order to complete the course the student has to perform the necessary NMR measurements for solving the structure of an unknown compound and to give a written report of its structural analysis.

Assessment details

In order to complete the course the student has to perform the necessary NMR measurements for solving the structure of an unknown compound and to give a written report of its structural analysis. The structure of the compound has to be correctly analyzed for passing the course.

Learning outcomes

After completing the course the student is able to utilize 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy in solving the structures of unknown compounds in the forms of spectral interpretation and the use of the Bruker FT NMR spectrometer(s) of the Department of Chemistry.

Additional information

The course replaces the previously lectured course KEMS537: NMR Spectroscopy in Structural Elucidation.

The course will be lectured yearly in the 2. period.
