About the course
The course deals with the following aspects of NMR spectroscopy:
- Fundamentals of the NMR phenomenon, relationship between NMR spectra and molecular structure. Recording of routine spectra (1H and 13C), essentials of data processing, e.g. weighting functions
- 1D NMR techniques: decoupling, DEPT, relaxation measurement, magnetisation transfer, NOE difference spectra
- 2D NMR techniques: Homo- and heteronuclear correlation (COSY, TOCY, HSQC, HMBC), measurement of the nuclear Overhauser effect (NOESY, ROESY)
Emphasis is on learning the practical use of NMR equipment.
