Purchase of High Resolution 300 MHz NMR System

该奖项来自化学研究仪器项目，将帮助纽约州立大学奥尔巴尼分校化学系获得一台300兆赫光谱仪，用于以下化学领域的研究调查：有机硫化学，合成有机氟化学，多核抗生素的合成，有机反应的粘土催化，高分子材料中的化学扩散和酶内切酶的研究III。在这些领域中，结构知识对于理解材料的反应和性质至关重要。核磁共振光谱学是化学家用来研究分子结构的最有力的工具。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。获得最先进的核磁共振光谱是必不可少的化学家谁正在进行前沿研究。这些核磁共振研究的结果在聚合物和催化以及生物学等领域都很有用。

This award from the Chemistry Research Instrumentation Program will help the Department of Chemistry at SUNY Albany acquire a 300 MHz spectrometer which will be used in research investigations in the following areas of chemistry: organosulfur chemistry, synthetic organofluorine chemistry, synthesis of polynuclear antibiotics, clay catalysis of organic reactions, chemical diffusion in polymeric materials and studies of the enzyme Endonuclease III. In each of these areas knowledge of structure is essential for understanding the reactions and properties of the materials. Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectroscopy is the most powerful tool available to the chemist 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. The results from these NMR studies are useful in areas such as polymers and catalysis, and in biology.
