Course description

Brief survey of the basic concepts of relevant spectroscopic methods indispensable for their practical applications. Solution of selected synthetic problems from organic, inorganic and metalloorganic chemistry through the structure elucidation of precursors, products and intermediates. This is based on the complementary information extracted from different spectra.. This practical course put special emphasis on the applications of multinuclear NMR techniques.
