Description
- Proton nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)
- Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) of carbon 13
- Infrared spectroscopy (IR)
- UV-visible spectroscopy
Objectives
Be able to interpret a one-dimensional 1HNMR spectrum and provide an accurate description (chemical shift, integration, coupling constants, assignment) in the style of a scientific publication. Understand what information can be derived from the interpretation of spectra: geometry, conformational or configurational differences, etc.
Be able to interpret a 13CNMR spectrum using a two-dimensional spectrum(1H/13C, HSQC sequence) and give a careful description (chemical shift, attribution) in the style of a scientific publication.
Be able to distinguish certain functions present in a molecule using infrared spectroscopy.
Be able to interpret a UV-visible spectrum and predict the absorbance range of a molecule based on its structure.
Necessary prerequisites
It is necessary to have previously taken a basic organic chemistry module covering at least stereochemistry and electronic effects. Basic knowledge of molecular orbitals is also required.
