Improvement of the Chemistry Curriculum through use of FT-NMR Spectroscopy

9452084 Geisler化学系的课程正在通过提供现代仪器和实验室计算机的实践经验来改进。 200 MHz FT-NMR的引入增强了学生在有机化学，物理化学，仪器分析和高级无机化学课程中的经验。 学生的接触FT-NMR发生逐渐但稳定地通过课堂讲座和实验室的解决问题的设置。 该项目还提高了教师教授NMR光谱解释的基础知识和高级方面的能力。此外，该仪器被用来说明一些化学概念，包括反应立体化学，平衡，动力学，互变异构，质子交换和磁矩。 一个可访问的NMR为本科生提供了参与研究的机会，在一个更高的水平比否则可能。

9452084 Geisler The curriculum in the Department of Chemistry is being improved by providing hand-on experience with modern instrumentation and laboratory computers. The introduction of a 200 MHz FT-NMR is enhancing the students' experiences in organic chemistry, physical chemistry, instrumental analysis and advanced inorganic chemistry courses. The students' exposure to FT-NMR occurs gradually but steadily through classroom lectures and in the problem-solving setting of the laboratories. The project also is enhancing the ability of the faculty to teach the fundamentals and advanced aspects of NMR spectra interpretation. In addition, the instrument is being used to illustrate a number of chemical concepts including reaction stereochemistry, equilibria, kinetics, tautomerism, proton exchange and magnetic moments. An accessible NMR provides the undergraduates with the opportunity to participate in research at a higher level than would otherwise be possible.
