CHEM5688 (Principles of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) course reviews and ratings at Northeastern (NEU). Compare professors with RateMyProfessor reviews.
Presents the physical principles underlying magnetic resonance spectroscopy, including Fourier transform theory, classical and quantum-mechanical treatments of spin angular momentum, the Bloch equations, and spin relaxation. Covers fundamental concepts in time domain magnetic resonance methods, including pulse sequences, selective pulses, phase cycling, coherence pathways, field gradients, and nonuniform sampling. Surveys the NMR methods most commonly applied to chemical structural analysis, including pure shift NMR; 2D correlation (COSY, DQF-COSY, TOCSY, HSQC, HMBC) methods; and cross-relaxation (NOESY, ROESY) methods.
