CHEM 345 - Molecular Structure Determination

3 Credit Hours 1 Lab Hours
Different spectroscopic techniques can be applied in virtually every domain of scientific research, from environmental analysis and biomedical sciences to space exploration endeavors.
Students will be introduced to the theory and application of modern instruments in chemical procedures. Standard spectroscopic methods including ultraviolet spectroscopy (UV), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) will be discussed. Basic concepts of NMR theory and interpretation presented in organic chemistry will be reviewed. Advanced NMR topics including 2D NMR will be introduced. Students will gain hands-on experience with low-field benchtop NMR instrumentation regarding sample preparation, adding samples to a queue, setting up acquisition parameters, and processing raw (FID) data.

Prerequisite(s): CHEM 254  with a minimum grade of C-.
