Enhancement of Undergraduate Education Using a High Field NMR Spectrometer

哈蒙德9351588该项目将购买一个高场傅里叶变换核磁共振光谱仪（FT NMR），以提高低年级和高年级的化学和生物化学实验室课程。它还将用于高级选修课，如聚合物合成和有机制备。FT NMR光谱仪将在本科生学术生涯的早期阶段向他们介绍当前技术的第一个也是最复杂的例子-计算机驱动的化学仪器。学生将在大二有机化学实验课程中获得NMR光谱学结构测定的实用介绍，然后继续无机和P-chem的应用。它还将允许学生使用多脉冲序列和2D-NMR技术确定复杂分子的结构。 ***

Hammond 9351588 The project will purchase a high field Fourier transform nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometer (FT NMR) to improve lower and upper division chemistry and biochemistry laboratory courses. It will also be used in advanced electives such as Polymer Synthesis and Organic Preparations. The FT NMR spectrometer will introduce to undergraduates the first and most sophisticated example of current technology computer-driven chemical instrumentation at an early stage in their academic careers. Students will receive a practical introduction to structure determination by NMR spectroscopy during the sophomore organic chemistry laboratory course, then continue with applications in inorganic and P-chem. It will also allow students to determine structures of complex molecules using multi- pulse sequence and 2D-NMR techniques. ***
