Main themes
General description of 4 main spectroscopic techniques used in organic analysis: mass spectrometry, nuclear magnetic resonance (proton and carbon), infrared and UV-visible. For each of them are described the basic principles, analytical information which can be used, examples of applications in organic analysis, and the equipment. Seminars and practical classes allow the student to develop a strategy for the identification of organic compounds.
Content
Theoretical course. General description of the main spectroscopies. Mass spectrometry: basic principles, analytical information, applications for saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbons, aromatics, alcohols, carbonyles, carboxylic acids and esters, systems of introduction, ionization modes, systems of deflection. Nuclear magnetic resonance: basic principles, chemical shift for H and C, coupling constants, intramolecular mobility, longitudinal and transversal relaxations. Infrared spectrometry: conditions of absorption and modes of vibration, applications for alcanes, alcenes, aromatics, alcohols, carbonyles, halogenic compounds. UV-visible spectroscopy: diagram of Jablonski and types of transitions, applications for alcenes, carbonyles, benzene, solvent effect, equipment.
Teaching methods
Magistral lectures for the theoretical part. Seminars allow to use the new concepts, by analyzing MS (EI, CI, ESI, APCI), NMR, IR and UV-visible spectra. At the laboratory, the student is put in the situation of a researcher, in front of a new problem.
Evaluation methods
Written examination for the theoretical aspects. The experimental know-how and the attitude are evaluated throughout practical classes, as well as by an oral presentation (English) and a report miming the writing of a publication.
Other information
This course can be given in english.
