Shared Mass Spectrometric, Computer, and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Equipment

现代化学家依靠许多仪器来 表征分子，并处理和解释大量 大量的数据。 质谱（MS）和核 磁共振（NMR）光谱对前者至关重要 而现代计算机对后者是必不可少的。 现状 艺术MS，NMR和计算机仪器是不可或缺的， 化学前沿研究的实施。 哥伦比亚大学化学系将利用 这个多仪器奖来自化学共享 仪器计划，以帮助获得质谱仪， 计算机设备和组件，以改善部门核磁共振 光谱仪 包括在化学研究领域 这些收购将加强以下方面： 1)量子溶剂化与动力学 2)与酶过程相关的化学模型系统 3)新型反芳香化合物及其固态 性能 4)高分子双烯烃的合成 5)生物活性化合物的结构生物有机研究 6)天然和非天然离子载体的合成 7)星爆聚合物的结构与动力学。

The modern chemist relies on a number of instruments to characterize molecules and to handle and interpret vast quantities of data. Mass Spectrometry (MS) and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy are crucial to the former and modern computers are essential to the latter. State-of-the art MS, NMR and computer instrumentation is indespensible for the execution of frontier research in chemistry. The Department of Chemistry at Columbia University will use this multi-instrument award from the Chemistry Shared Instrumentation Program to help acquire a Mass Spectrometer, computer equipment, and components to improve departmental NMR spectrometers. Included among the areas of chemical research that will be enhanced by these acquisitions are the following: 1) Quantum solvation and dynamics 2) Chemical model systems relevant to enzymatic processes 3) Novel antiaromatic compounds and their solid state properties 4) Synthesis of polymeric metallocenes 5) Structural bioorganic studies of bioactive compounds 6) Synthesis of natural and unnatural ionophores 7) Structure and dynamics of starburst polymers.
