Catalog 2011 - 2012

CHE 445 Advanced Spectroscopy

Pre- or corequisites: CHE 354, CHE 355L. Covers current spectroscopic methods for organic structure determination. Topics include elemental analysis, liquid-chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), infrared spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and their use in organic structure determination. Students are expected to develop literature research skills by preparing and presenting a project involving the determination of the molecular structure of a naturally occurring compound.
