With this award from the Major Research Instrumentation program (MRI), the Department of Chemistry at Illinois State University (ISU) will acquire a 400 MHz NMR spectrometer and an upgrade on the console of an existent 400 MHz NMR spectrometer. The NMR spectrometers will be utilized in research projects including 1) rare earth complexes, 2) cluster complexes, 3) porphyrin-derived macrocycles, 4) chiral auxiliaries, and 5) biochemical and mechanistic studies in physical, organic and biophysical chemistry. Two functioning NMR spectrometers will allow for research and training of a large number of students. Chemistry research opportunities will be available for a significant number of underrepresented undergraduates, community college students and high-school students.Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is one of the most powerful tools available to chemists for the elucidation of the structure of molecules. It is used to identify unknown substances, to 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 spectrometers is essential to chemists who are carrying out frontier research. The results from these NMR studies will have an impact in synthetic organic chemistry and biochemistry.

凭借重大研究仪器计划 (MRI) 的这一奖项，伊利诺伊州立大学 (ISU) 化学系将购买一台 400 MHz NMR 波谱仪，并对现有 400 MHz NMR 波谱仪的控制台进行升级。核磁共振波谱仪将用于包括 1) 稀土配合物、2) 簇配合物、3) 卟啉衍生大环化合物、4) 手性助剂和 5) 物理、有机和生物物理化学领域的生物化学和机理研究在内的研究项目。两台正常运行的核磁共振波谱仪将允许大量学生进行研究和培训。大量未被充分代表的本科生、社区学院学生和高中生将获得化学研究机会。核磁共振 (NMR) 光谱是化学家阐明分子结构的最强大工具之一。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波谱仪至关重要。这些核磁共振研究的结果将对合成有机化学和生物化学产生影响。
