Courses :: Module, ADVANCED NMR & MASS SPECTROMETRY

	Overview
	The module allows students to develop a theoretical, analytical and practical approach to the use of modern spectroscopic techniques for structure determination, namely Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) and mass spectrometry (MS). The physical principles underlying the spectroscopic methods will be outlined. Significant attention will be paid to instrumental factors that influence the outcome of NMR and MS experiments. The manner in which the spectroscopic methods can be brought together to solve structural problems will be presented and given as problem sets. Examples of applications from both organic and inorganic chemistry will be used. This is a DRHEA module which is delivered externally in UCD. These courses change from year to year.

	Learning Outcomes
	On successful completion of the module, students should be able to: have a knowledge and understanding of the theoretical principles underpinning mass spectrometry and NMR spectroscopy. be familiar with the operational capabilites/constraints of each technique. be aware of the issues involved in sample preparation. be able to analyse and interpret data and have an appreciation of the limitations of each spectroscopic technique. be able to identify the most suitable spectroscopic techniques for the structure determination of a given sample.
