The Chemistry Department at the University of California- Irvine will acquire a gas chromatograph time-of-flight (GC-TOF) mass spectrometer with this award from the Chemistry Research Instrumentation and Facilities: Multi User program (CRIF:MU). The mass spectrometer will facilitate a diverse range of research including mechanistic studies on formation of non-polar polymers promulgated through lanthanide chemistry and lanthanide mediated C-H activation; design,and synthesis of nonpolar polymers with new structures utilizing transition metal catalysis; asymmetric cyclopropanation and natural product synthesis; polyhomologation reactions for synthesis of hydrocarbon polymers with precisely controlled chain length, polydispersity and chemical composition; synthesis of ant recognition hydrocarbons; new synthetic methods particularly assessing stereoselectivity; natural product synthesis involving the otellione family, indole alkaloids and atrope isomerism of nitrogen containing compounds; synthetic probes for rhodoquinone biosynthesis and for monitoring oxidative metabolism; emerging pollutants in water intended for reuse; synthetic polychlorinated alkane chemistry; environmental contaminant identification associated with receptor activation. Mass spectroscopy is one of the basic tools used by physical scientists to identify and characterize materials and chemical species by accurate measurement of their mass as they are vaporized and fragmented in the instrument. It is an essential tool in the training of young scientists. Almost 200 graduate and postdoctoral researchers as well as undergraduates in research programs use the mass spectrometry facility at UC-Irvine. The facility is also used by undergraduate classes in Honors Chemistry as a component of their training in organic chemistry. The new instrument will be used by students and faculty at California State University - Northridge and Gonzaga University who will analyze data with cyber enabling software at their home institution.

加州大学欧文分校的化学系将从化学研究仪器和设施：多用户计划（CRIF：MU）获得一台气相色谱飞行时间（GC-TOF）质谱仪。 质谱仪将促进各种各样的研究，包括通过镧系元素化学和镧系元素介导的C-H活化对非极性聚合物形成的机理研究;利用过渡金属催化设计和合成具有新结构的非极性聚合物;不对称环丙烷化和天然产物合成;用于合成具有精确控制的链长、多分散性和化学组成的烃聚合物的多同系化反应;新的合成方法，特别是评估立体选择性;天然产物合成，涉及otelione家族，吲哚生物碱和含氮化合物的atrope异构;合成探针，用于玫瑰醌生物合成和监测氧化代谢;新出现的污染物在水中打算再利用;合成多氯代烷烃化学;与受体活化相关的环境污染物识别。质谱是物理科学家用来识别和表征材料和化学物质的基本工具之一，当它们在仪器中蒸发和碎裂时，通过精确测量它们的质量。 它是培训青年科学家的一个重要工具。近200名研究生和博士后研究人员以及研究项目的本科生使用UC-Irvine的质谱设备。该设施也被荣誉化学的本科班用作有机化学培训的一部分。 新仪器将由加州州立大学-北岭分校和贡扎加大学的学生和教职员工使用，他们将在自己的机构用网络使能软件分析数据。
