Acquisition of a Microcomputer Network and Graphics Work Station

西北大学化学系将 购买微机网络和图形工作站， 化学共享奖的支持 仪器化程序与材料仪器化 研究计划。 仪器将用于升级 现有的X射线单晶结构设施， 执行分子图形学和分子力学 计算和处理核磁共振数据。 化学领域将通过收购得到加强 包括以下步骤： 1)天然产物合成，包括抗菌剂 2)高分子离子学与离子输运 3)金属簇合物的合成与结构 4)蛋白质模型的构建 5)吸附分子的结构和动力学 6)气相化学反应动力学

The Department of Chemistry at Northwestern University will purchase a Microcomputer Network and Graphics Work Station with the support of this award from the Chemistry Shared Instrumentation Program and the Instrumentation for Materials Research Program. The instrumentation will be used to upgrade the existing X-ray single crystal structure facility, to perform molecular graphics and molecular mechanics calculations, and to process nuclear magnetic resonance data. The areas of chemistry that will be enhanced by the acquisition include: 1) Natural product synthesis, including antibacterial agents 2) Polymer ionics and ion transport 3) Metal cluster synthesis and structure 4) Construction of models of proteins 5) Structure and dynamics of adsorbed molecules 6) Gas-phase chemical reaction dynamics
