Course Description: |
|
With the development of science, technology and modern analytical techniques, NMR technology has become a workhorse in chemistry and medicine research, especially for the graduate students with research interests in organic chemistry and medicine research fields. NMR technique requires a strong theory background but has wide applications. This course covers the basic principles, concepts and terminology of nuclear magnetic resonance. Detailed experimental technique and spectrua interpretation will also be covered. The students will gain the abilities to analyze and resolve the problems during the NMR studies by taking the lecture, reading the literatures, discussing with others, and practicing with the computer-aided molecular modeling.
Successful completion of this course will allow the students to gain a fundamental understanding of the principles, the development, the instrumentation of NMR technique, and employ the technical terminology to fulfill their future scientific research in organic chemistry and medicine-related research. |
