Last Updated: 2026-02-05 15:19:33
Abstract
Exercises in interpretation of molecular spectra
Objective
Mastering the interpretation of molecular spectra.
Content
In the first part of the lecture, the students work in small groups on solving particular problems in structure elucidation, interpreting mass, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, IR, and UV/VIS spectra, optionally in discussion with the lecturers. In the second part the problems are solved by a lecturer.
Resources
Lecture Notes
Spectroscopic problems will be distributed
