Outline and Purpose of the Course Understanding the basics of structural analysis of organic compounds based on spectral analysis.
Course Goals This course explains the basics of identifying organic compounds through spectral analysis. Through this lecture, students will develop the ability to determine the structure of organic compounds by interpreting infrared spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.
Schedule and Contents There are a total of 15 lectures in this course as follows:
1. Principle of spectroscopy and spectral interpretation, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) absorption spectrum (1): What is nuclear magnetic resonance? (1 day)
2. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) absorption spectrum (2): Proton NMR chemical shift (1 day)
3. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) absorption spectrum (3): Chemical shift and molecular structure (1 day)
4. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) absorption spectrum (4): Spin coupling I (1 day)
5. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) absorption spectrum (5): Spin coupling II (1 day)
6. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) absorption spectrum (6): Carbon NMR (1 day)
7. UV / visible light spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy (1 day)
8. Mass spectrometry (1 day)
9-14. Structural analysis by spectrum: Comprehensively interpreting various spectra to determine the molecular structure of organic compounds (6 days)

15. Feedback: Exam questions will be analyzed and other questions answered using PandA
Evaluation Methods and Policy Evaluation will be conducted based on the final examination (weightage 70%), homework such as reports (15%), and class participation (15%). The evaluation criteria and policies are in accordance with the "Evaluation Criteria and Policies" described in the Student Handbook of the Faculty of Agriculture for the relevant year.
Course Requirements It is recommended that students have completed the courses Introduction to Applied Life Sciences I and IV and Organic Reaction Mechanism I.
It is also advised to take Organic Reaction Mechanics II simultaneously.
Study outside of Class (preparation and review) For lectures 1 to 8, students will be assigned review questions (using PandA quizzes). From Lecture 9 onwards, a designated student will be asked to explain the basics and the discussion will proceed from there.
