Acquisition of a Gas Chromatograph/Mass Spectrometer

化学研究仪器项目授予罗格斯大学化学系的这一奖项将帮助他们获得气相色谱和质谱仪系统(GC/MS)。这项收购将增强该系教育学生的能力，并将加强以下领域的化学研究：合成有机化学、卡宾化学研究、过渡金属催化的C-H键和结构的官能化，以及有机自由基阳离子的反应性。气相色谱和质谱仪(GC/MS)系统分离挥发性化合物的混合物，并识别每个分离的组分的质量。当需要对稀溶液中的可溶化合物进行定量时，GC/MS是必不可少的。GC/MS在化学合成、动力学和结构分析等领域具有重要的应用价值。

This award from the Chemistry Research Instrumentation Program to the Department of Chemistry at Rutgers University will help them acquire a gas chromatograph and mass spectrometer system (GC/MS) system. The acquisition will enhance the ability of the Department to educate students and will enhance chemical research in the following areas: Synthetic Organic Chemistry, Research in Carbene Chemistry, Transition Metal-Catalyzed Functionalization of C-H Bonds and Structures, and Reactivities of Organic Radical Cations. The Gas Chromatograph and Mass Spectrometer (GC/MS) system separates mixtures of volatile compounds and identifies the masses of each separated component. The GC/MS is essential when there is a need to quantify soluble compounds found in dilute solutions. The GC/MS is useful in areas such as chemical synthesis, kinetics and structural analysis.
