Teaching
NMRium is the ideal place to provide online exercises to students. Teachers need simply to supply their students with an URL, who can then immediately start analyzing spectra directly from their webbrowser.
Do not hesitate to contact us if you want to create your own exercises. We will assist you in this matter. In the meantime, you may use the following exercises to test how it works.
In those exercises, you have to elucidate the chemical structure of unknown products, for which the chemical formulas are provided. Once the structure has been elucidated, you simply draw it within the website. The system will then inform whether the guessed structure is correct or not.
When using NMRium, students can evolve at their own speed and teachers can focus on helping students encountering difficulties.
We have also implemented two more applications that are very practical for teaching:
- An application that allows to predict not only 1H and 13C but also COSY, HSQC, and HMBC.
- An application that allows to simulate NMR spectra based on coupling constants and chemical shifts.

Series of exercises#
Simple 1D exercises
This series of exercises contains simple 1H NMR spectra for which the molecular formula is provided and the student needs to determine the chemical structure.
Predicted spectra
A series containing predicted spectra of structural isomers for selected molecular formulas. The goal is to show the students how 1H NMR spectra can help identify the correct isomer.
Various 2D exercises
This series of exercises provided by Dr Nils Schloerer contains various exercises that includes not only 1H and 13C NMR but also 19F. It also presents 2D spectra (HSQC, HMBC, COSY, NOESY) and various 1D analysis (DEPT, APT and selective NOE).
Various 1D and 2D exercises
This series of exercises provided by Dr Johannes Liermann contains various 1D and 2D exercises.
13C FID processing and structure elucidation
This series of exercises provided by Dr Michel Gravel contains various 1D 13C exercises that involves FID processing.
Various 1D and 2D exercises involving 1H and 13C
This series of exercises provided by Dr Tomas Lebl has been used in teaching of 3rd year spectroscopy workshop. The problems have been divided into three difficulty sections A-Easy, B-Moderate and C-Difficult.
1H of solvents and simple molecules
This series is part of 5 series provided by Julia Villiger and Noah Mayor from EPFL. Each of them focus on one or more experiments. In this series only proton NMR is provided.
13C of solvents and simple molecules
This series is part of 5 series provided by Julia Villiger and Noah Mayor from EPFL. Each of them focus on one or more experiments. In this series 13C NMR (coupled / decoupled) are provided.
COSY of solvents and simple molecules
This series is part of 5 series provided by Julia Villiger and Noah Mayor from EPFL. Each of them focus on one or more experiments. In this series COSY spectrum is provided.
HMBC/HSQC of solvents and simple molecules
This series is part of 5 series provided by Julia Villiger and Noah Mayor from EPFL. Each of them focus on one or more experiments. In this series HSQC and HMBC spectra are provided.
Workspaces#
Within this section, we propose various workspaces intended to provide students with a suite of functionalities specifically designed for particular tasks. These tasks range from validating a chemical structure based on NMR spectra received during practical exercises, to structural elucidation exercises where students are required not only to identify the structure of an unidentified product but also to comprehensively assign the NMR spectra and submit their analysis to the instructor.
