There are three evaluation points in KJM 5280 / KJM 9280.
1. The mid term exam on a nmr spectrometer. (passed/not passed)
2. Your written report. (approved/not approved)
3. The presentation of your scientific results (passed/not passed)
Dates for evaluation point 3 is to be determined.
In evaluation point 3 you present your logical thinking in elucidating the chemical structure of your molecule using a power point presentation showing all the connection points between the atoms in the molecule using lots and lots of nmr spectra.
The written reports is handed in as both pdf and word documents, as well as a printed copy.
All students hand in their reports at the latest on Monday September 30th. Please hand it in earlier if possible. It will however take some time before you know if the report is approved or not.
Mid term exams will be arranged during September 10th and 11th. The exam is taking place at a nmr spectrometer (DRX500) and lasts up to one hour. Passed/not passed. On September 23. you have a second chance if not passed n first attempt.
The laboratories are open from 10.00 AM to 03.00 PM (15.00). Please show up at 10.00 AM. So far the non official list is (this will be completed on August 26 during the lectures):
Tuesday August 20. 1H NMR and 13C NMR DPX 200 (students 1 and 2), DPX300 (students 3 and 4), DRX500 (students 5 and 6)
Thursday August 22. 1H NMR and 13C NMR DPX 200 (extra), DPX300 (extra), DRX500 (extra)
Monday August 26. 2D NMR processing NMR DPX 200 (students 1 and 2), DPX 300 (students 3 and 4), DRX500 (students 5 and 6)
Tuesday August 27. 2D NMR processing DPX 200 (extra), DPX300 (extra), DRX 500 (extra)
Wednesday August 28. Learning ICONNMR ...
The nmr-laboratory exercises will take place in rooms ? 332, 334, 338 and 340 in the Chemistry building. Please contact the administration on the UE-floor in the west wing of the Chemistry building to activate your access to the 3rd floor in the east wing of the building. You might not be able to use the elevators to the third floor and you might not be able to enter the third floor from the stairs if you do not activate your key card/UiO identity card.
In Norwegian it is stated: Anbefalte forkunnskaper
KJM3000 – Anvendt spektroskopi og KJM3200 – Organisk kjemi II
You must know how to elucidate the structure of organic molecules with NMR spectroscopy at the level of KJM 3000 when taking KJM 5280. What you learned in KJM 3000 will not be repeated. Basic interpretation of 1H 13C HSQC HMBC and COSY spectra you already master when starting on KJM 5280.
The content in KJM 5280/9280 contain the bare minimum of what you need to learn and deeply understand of practical NMR in order to be a successful Master student in organic chemistry or medicinal chemistry and related topics. The main goal is to learn, understand and use all of the content as long as you are a master student or PhD student. You ought to be able to use the knowledge, not only during the one hour mid term exam, but also later. You shall use and safely operate nmr-spectrometers for real experiments. This is not a course where you superficially hear about a topic and then reproduce part of the content orally or in written form at the exam. You ought to MASTER the content of the course and to be able to use what you learn. The size of the course is 5 study point and this corresponds to approximately 100 working hours.
You are exposed to high magnetic fields and other hazards in KJM 5280 and KJM 9280. You have to be aware of some health concerns in KJM 5280 and KJM 9280. 1. If you use a pacemaker to regulate the frequency of your heart or have a stent in your body you can regretfully not participate. If you earlier in life have been in a war zone and was exposed to exploding devices and still have iron shrapnel pieces in your body you can not participate. 2. The NMR-magnets can suddenly/violently stop being super conducting. Then the room is filled with nitrogen- and helium gas. Leave the room as fast as you can if this happens. 3. If a magnet slowly releases its nitrogen and/or helium content the oxygen content will fall below life sustaining levels and you might not observe this, except that you will fall asleep/faint and then die. Oxygen sensors will activate, while there...
Please come to room Curie on Monday August 19th from 12.15 to 16.00. The lectures are compulsory and you might regretfully loose your lab day slots if you are not showing up. If there is a waiting list a person on the waiting list might be given your place in the course if you do not show up.
