AVANCE I

Introduction into basic operation of NMR-spectrometers and administration of the spectrometer workstation

This 4 day course is designed to introduce users to the use and administration of Topspin software as well as operation of the spectrometer.  Topics covered include Topspin software installation for Windows and Linux operating systems, user administration, data management as well as experiment acquisition and processing.  Computer use is encouraged during the lecture portions, in order to allow for hands-on use of the software.  Each lecture will be followed by a laboratory session in front of a spectrometer to apply theory to practice.
 

Experiments:

  • Determination of ninety degree pulses on 1H and 13C nuclei
  • Standard 1-dimentional experiments including 1D proton and carbon, DEPT
  • 2-dimentional structure elucidation experiments such as 2D-COSY, NOESY, TOCSY, HSQC, HMBC
  • Determination of T1 values

Prerequisite:

There are no pre-requisites for this course.  Customers are encouraged to bring a laptop with them for hand-on processing during lecture.
