300 MHz NMR Spectrometer

俄克拉荷马大学化学系将从化学研究仪器和设施计划(CRIF)获得这一奖项，以获得一台300 MHz的核磁共振光谱仪。该设备将使研究人员能够开展以下方面的研究：a)液晶的合成和表征；b)反应性有机部分的合成、稳定和应用；c)手性过渡金属催化剂的设计和合成；d)有机过渡金属络合物的反应性和合成用途；e)金属卟啉-亚硝酰基和亚硝基有机络合物的结构和反应性；f)第13族有机金属化合物的合成和表征。核磁共振波谱是化学家用来解释分子结构的最有力的工具。它被用来识别未知物质，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。对于正在进行前沿研究的化学家来说，获得最先进的核磁共振光谱是必不可少的。这些核磁共振研究的结果将对包括材料化学在内的许多领域产生影响。

With this award from the Chemistry Research Instrumentation and Facilities (CRIF) Program, the Department of Chemistry at the University of Oklahoma will acquire a 300 MHz NMR Spectrometer. This equipment will enable researchers to carry out studies on a) the synthesis and characterization of liquid crystals; b) the synthesis, stabilization and applications of reactive organic moieties; c) the design and synthesis of chiral transition metal catalysts; d) the reactivity and synthetic utility of organotransition metal complexes; e) the structure and reactivity of metalloporphyrin-nitrosyl and -nitroso organic complexes; and f) the synthesis and characterization of group 13 organometallic compounds. 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, 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 spectrometry is essential to chemists who are carrying out frontier research. The results from these NMR studies will have an impact in a number of areas including materials chemistry.
