| Description |
The application of instrumentation (chiefly spectrometers) to modern chemical and biochemical research, including medicinal chemistry will be covered. Primary emphasis will be on NMR methods, but additional sections of the course will be devoted to mass spectrometry , X-ray diffraction, IR, UV, and EPR spectroscopy, as well as chiroptical techniques. The integrated nature of using various instrumental methods for identification and characterization of molecular structure and dynamics will be emphasized. |
