Purchase of NMR Spectrometer

该奖项来自化学研究仪器和设施计划，将帮助明尼苏达大学德卢斯分校化学系购买一台 300 MHz 核磁共振波谱仪。该设备将加强多个领域的研究，包括：(1) 新碳-碳键的创建，(2) 卤代环丙醚断裂应用于取代丙烯醛阴离子合成物的开发，(3) 多价碘化学，以及 (4) 1-芳基-1-丙烯硼氢化反应的区域化学。 核磁共振 (NMR) 光谱是化学家阐明分子结构的最强大工具。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。对于进行前沿研究的化学家来说，获得最先进的核磁共振波谱分析至关重要。这些 NMR 研究的结果可用于聚合物、催化和生物学等领域。

This award from the Chemistry Research Instrumentation and Facilities Program will assist the Department of Chemistry at University of Minnesota at Duluth acquire a 300 MHz NMR Spectrometer. This equipment will enhance research in a number of areas including the following: (1) Creation of New Carbon-Carbon Bonds, (2) Halocyclopropyl Ether Fragmentation Applied to the Development of a Substituted Acrolein Anion Synthon, (3) Chemistry of Polyvalent Iodine, and (4) The Regiochemistry of the Hydroboration of 1-Aryl-1-Propenes. 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 the areas such as polymers, catalysis, and in biology.
