Integration of Multinuclear NMR Spectroscopy into the Chemistry Undergraduate Curriculum

北卡罗来纳大学教堂山分校化学系正在建立一个“跨学科”无机合成实验室，该实验室将涵盖广泛的主题，包括固态化学、聚合物化学、材料化学、主基团化学、有机金属化学和配位化学。我们努力围绕最近的研究进展设计几个实验，让学生体会到现代无机化学的味道。本提案要求资金购买一台200 MHz傅立叶变换核磁共振光谱仪，该光谱仪将广泛用于本实验室反应产物的表征。本实验是所有化学专业的必修课程（每年80-100名学生），将作为我们专业多核FT-NMR主题教育的载体。为了处理参与我们项目的大量学生，核磁共振光谱仪将配备一个自动样品装载器，自动化软件和一个四探针，将提供常规访问1H， 31P， 19f和13C光谱。虽然学生将很少参与使用该仪器进行日常数据采集，但学生将密切参与在化学系30个工作站的个人计算机实验室中整理自己的数据。我们正在建立的项目将作为一个模型，将现代核磁共振光谱学引入其他拥有大量化学专业学生的项目。此外，同样的仪器将用于提高学生在其他实验室的教育经验，这些实验室的人数相对较少，包括荣誉有机实验室、聚合物合成实验室和高级有机合成实验室。

9451673 Schauer An "interdisciplinary" inorganic synthesis laboratory is being developed in the Chemistry department at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill that will cover a broad range of topics including solid-state chemistry, polymer chemistry, materials chemistry, main-group chemistry, organometallic chemistry, and coordination chemistry. An effort has been made to design several experiments around recent research developments to give students the flavor of modern inorganic chemistry. This proposal requests funds to purchase a 200 MHz Fourier Transform Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectrometer that will be utilized extensively for characterization of reaction products in this laboratory. This laboratory is a required course for all chemistry majors (taken by 80-100 students per year), and will serve as a vehicle for the education of our majors on the topic of Multinuclear FT-NMR Spectroscopy. To handle the large numbers of students involved in our program, the NMR spectrometer will be equipped with an automatic sample loader, automation software, and a quad probe that will provide routine access to 1H, 31P, l9F, and 13C spectra. Although student involvement in routine data acquisition with this instrument will be minimal, the students will be intimately involved in working-up their own data in the 30-station Chemistry Department personal computer laboratory. The program that we are establishing will serve as a model for bringing modern NMR spectroscopy into other programs with similarly large numbers of chemistry majors. Furthermore, this same instrumentation will be used to enhance the educational experiences of students in other laboratories where the numbers are reasonably small, including the honors organic laboratory, the polymer synthesis laboratory, and the advanced organic synthesis laboratory.
