This award from the Chemistry Research Instrumentation and Facilities (CRIF) Program and the Office of Multidisciplinary Activities (OMA) will assist the Department of Chemistry at University of New Mexico purchase of a 500 MHz NMR. This equipment will enhance research in a number of areas including the following: (1) synthesais of biologically active compounds, (2) mechanism of enzyme catalysis, (3) molecular routes to inorganic materials, (4) organic photochemistry and mechanistic enzymology, and (5) novel main group ring and cage chemistry. 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.
