Introduction of NMR into the Chemistry Curriculum

为提高本科化学实验室的教学质量，购买了一台200mhz傅里叶变换核磁共振光谱仪。在普通化学课程中向学生介绍FT-NMR，不仅化学专业的学生，生物、物理和环境科学专业的学生也有机会使用它。每年，随着学生们在化学课程的学习，他们会在以前的经验基础上进行积累，这样当他们大四的时候，他们就会像熟悉其他仪器一样熟悉核磁共振了。虽然一些本科课程已经包括基本的1-和更复杂的二维核磁共振实验的光谱解释，以分析化学结构，但实践经验使学生对仪器在阐明结构和识别化合物方面的作用有了更大的认识。这种低维护，多功能，快速，易于使用的FT-NMR光谱仪具有相关的计算机支持，非常适合学生在整个化学课程的实验课程中使用。

A 200 MHZ Fourier Transform Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (FT-NMR) spectrometer has been purchased for the improvement of the undergraduate chemistry laboratories. Students are introduced to FT-NMR in General Chemistry, where not only chemistry majors, but biology, physics and environmental science majors have a chance to use it. Each year as the students move through the chemistry curriculum they build on the previous experience, so that by the time they are seniors they are as familiar with the NMR as they are with other instrumentation. While some of the undergraduate courses already include theory and spectral interpretation of basic 1- and more sophisticated 2-D NMR experiments for analyses of chemical structures, the hands-on experience gives the students a greater appreciation for what the instrument can do in elucidating structures and identifying compounds. This low-maintenance, versatile, fast, and easy-to-use FT-NMR spectrometer with related computer support is ideally suited for use by students in laboratory courses throughout the chemistry curriculum.
