With support from the Chemistry Research Instrumentation and Facilities (CRIF) Program, the Department of Chemistry at the University of Kentucky will acquire a 400 MHz NMR Spectrometer. This equipment will enhance research in a number of areas, including studies on 1) the formation of cationic group 13 compounds; 2) formation of uni-ligated group 13 anions; 3) precursor molecules to corrosion resistant coatings of alumina; 4) organic conformation & function in water; 5) p-stacked foldamers; 6) pseudocyclic peptides; 7) the chemistry of fullerenes; 8) DNA dynamics; 9) chemical probes of protein prenylation; 10) redox catalysis in enzymes; 11) active site of FeSOD; 12) studies on model flavins; and 13) hydrogen bonding partners.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. Results from these NMR studies will be especially useful in areas such as polymers, catalysis, and in materials science.

在化学研究仪器和设施（CRIF）计划的支持下，肯塔基州大学化学系将获得一台400 MHz NMR光谱仪。这一设备将加强若干领域的研究，包括：（1）阳离子第13族化合物的形成;（2）单连接的第13族阴离子的形成;（3）氧化铝抗腐蚀涂层的前体分子;（4）水中的有机构象&功能;（5）p-叠层折叠体;（6）假环肽;（7）富勒烯化学;（8）DNA动力学;（9）生物化学;（10）生物化学。9）蛋白质异戊二烯化的化学探针; 10）酶的氧化还原催化; 11）FeSOD的活性位点; 12）模型黄素的研究;和13）氢键伙伴。核磁共振（NMR）光谱是化学家可用于阐明分子结构的最强有力的工具。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。对于进行前沿研究的化学家来说，使用最先进的核磁共振光谱法至关重要。 这些NMR研究的结果将在聚合物、催化和材料科学等领域特别有用。
