Improvement And Updating Of Organic/General Chemistry Laboratories - Acquisition of a FT-IR

9350743 Viswanathan该项目将购买一台FT红外分光光度计，以开发化学课程的新方向。这将包括介绍1)有机化学中的微型实验室技术，2)一般化学和入门化学，以及3)针对大一和大二学生的化学课程中的特殊问题和研究。该仪器的内置计算机将使学生能够在相对较短的时间内建立光谱库，识别合成化学品中的杂质，进行基线校正，减去溶剂光谱并进行计算机搜索。该仪器还将用于教师在有机金属和天然产物化学领域的研究。＊＊＊

9350743 Viswanathan The project will purchase an FT Infrared spectrophotometer to develop new directions in the chemistry curriculum. This will include the introduction of microscale laboratory techniques in the 1) organic chemistry, 2) general and introductory chemistry, and 3) special problems and research in chemistry courses for the freshmen and sophomore level students.The instrument with its built in computer will enable students to build libraries of spectra, identify impurities in the synthesized chemicals, perform baseline corrections, subtract solvent spectra and carry out computer searches in a relatively short time. This instrument will also be used in the faculty members' research in the areas of organometallic and natural products chemistry. ***
