MRI: Acquisition of a 400 MHz NMR Spectrometer

在主要研究仪器（MRI）获取计划的支持下，三一学院化学系（Hartford CT.）将获得一台400 MHz核磁共振光谱仪。该仪器将允许研究人员推进他们的研究，a)钨-炔基肽的构象行为，b)二茂铁环肽的构象行为，c)骨钙素肽的合成，d)辣椒素的构象行为，e)金属与寡核苷酸的结合，f)铟催化的碳-碳键形成反应，g)烯二炔和环氧二炔的合成，h)铼-氧配合物的氧转移化学。i)金属多氢化物配合物的结构。核磁共振（NMR）波谱是化学家用于分子结构分析的最广泛使用的工具。它用于识别未知物质，并提供有关分子中原子的排列和连通性的信息。获得的动力学信息提供了对分子运动的深入了解。该奖项将为教师和学生提供必要的分析能力。在化学课程中，向学生介绍核磁共振并在实验课程中使用它是至关重要的。

With support from the Major Research Instrumentation (MRI) Acquisition Program, the Department of Chemistry at Trinity College (Hartford CT.) will acquire a 400 MHz NMR spectrometer. This instrument will allow researchers to advance their investigations on, a) the conformational behavior of tungsten-alkynylpeptides, b) the conformational behavior of ferrocenylcyclicpeptides, c) the synthesis of osteocalcin peptides, d) the conformational behavior of capsaicin, e) the binding of metals to oligonucleotides, f) carbon-carbon bond forming reactions mediated by indium, g) synthesis of enediyne and epoxydiynes, h) the oxygen transfer chemistry of rhenium-oxo complexes, and i) the structure of metal polyhydride complexes.Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectroscopy is the most widely used tool available to chemists for the elucidation of the structure of molecules. It is used to identify unknown substances and to provide information on the arrangement and connectivity of atoms in molecules. Dynamical information is obtained providing insight on the motions of molecules. This award will provide essential analytical capabilities to faculty and students. It is vital to the chemistry curriculum where students are introduced to NMR and use it in their laboratory courses.
