Integration of High Field Multinuclear NMR into the Undergraduate Chemistry Curriculum

Schreiner傅里叶变换核磁共振（FT-NMR）光谱已被确立为所有有机和有机金属化合物鉴定和结构分配的最重要技术。它也适用于生物化学大分子的结构测定，并可用于研究分子动力学。该项目的目标是通过在整个化学课程中逐步增加核磁共振的复杂程度，向化学和其他科学专业的学生介绍这一强大技术的理论和操作。从化学入门到本科研究项目，学生都可以使用该仪器。从基本的l-D 1H NMR开始，学生进入多核和二维方法。这有效地确保了我们的学生谁去工业岗位或优秀的研究生院在现代核磁共振技术适当的培训。除了参与这个项目的伦道夫-梅肯学院的学生和教师外，附近的一所社区学院（J. Sargeant Reynolds）和当地的数学和科学中心也在使用这个设备。

9452264 Schreiner Fourier transform nuclear magnetic resonance (FT-NMR) spectroscopy has been established as the most important technique in the identification and structural assignment of all organic and organometallic compounds. It also lends itself to structure determination of biochemical macromolecules, and can be used to study molecular dynamics. The objective of this project is to educate chemistry and other science majors in the theory and operation of this powerful technique by introducing them to NMR at a gradually increasing level of sophistication throughout the entire chemistry curriculum. Student use of the instrument occurs in course ranging from introductory chemistry to undergraduate research projects. Starting with basic l-D 1H NMR, students advance to multinuclear and 2-D methods. This effectively ensures proper training in modern NMR techniques for our students who go on to industrial positions or excellent graduate schools. In addition to the students and faculty of Randolph-Macon College involved in this project, one nearby Community College (J. Sargeant Reynolds) and the local Mathematics and Science Center are using this equipment.
