400 MHz Multinuclear NMR Spectrometer

这项来自化学研究仪器项目的奖励将帮助印第安纳大学的部门获得一台400 MHz核磁共振光谱仪，该光谱仪将用于以下领域的研究调查：(1)金属有机化学；(2)金属羧酸盐化学；（三）材料化学、有机金属化学；(4)核酸催化剂（核酶和脱氧核糖体）。核磁共振（NMR）波谱是化学家用来阐明分子结构的最有力的工具。它用于识别未知物质，表征分子内原子的特定排列，并研究溶液中分子之间相互作用的动力学。获得最先进的核磁共振光谱是必不可少的化学家谁正在进行前沿研究。这些核磁共振研究的结果在聚合物和催化以及生物学等领域都很有用。

This award from the Chemistry Research Instrumentation Program will help the Department at Indiana University acquire a 400 MHz NMR Spectrometer which will be used in research investigations in the following areas: (1) metallo-organic chemistry; (2) metal carboxylate chemistry; (3) materials-related chemistry and organometallic chemistry; and (4) nucleic acid catalysts (ribozymes and deoxyribosymes). Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is the most powerful tool available to chemists for the elucidation of the structure of molecules. It is used to identify unknown substances, characterize specific arrangements of atoms within molecules, and to study the dynamics of interactions between molecules in solution. Access to state-of-the-art NMR spectrometry is essential to chemists who are carrying out frontier research. The results from these NMR studies are useful in areas such as polymers and catalysis, and in biology.
