The NMR Facility for the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry is a departmental resource devoted to application of nuclear magnetic resonance techniques to chemical and biochemical problems including the elucidation of molecular structure and measurement of molecular dynamics, association and other parameters amenable to this technology. This facility is designed to be easy to use for standard experiments for trained users, however, unusual or challenging projects are welcomed by the Facility Manager, please consult me about any possible NMR related projects.
The other mandate for this facility is to train chemists and biochemists to use the wide range of NMR experiments that can be of aid in their research. In addition to day to day training that occurs in this facility there are also periodic Workshops offered in the practical aspects of implementing experiments and processing data at both a beginner's and at advanced levels.



The core facility (Rm 394-5 Essex Hall) has 3 NMR spectrometers dedicated to research use. An additional spectrometer (in Rm B82, Essex Hall) is used for undergraduate laboratories but available for research use during periods when the undergraduate labs are not in session. The Schurko Lab also has a solid state spectrometer for its own research uses.

Breaking News
Register for NMR Workshop May 24-May 25
The 500MHz has been now been upgraded to an AVANCEIII model and is fully functional. The software has been updated to Topspin3.1 and the computer has been replaced. Users will need the manager to make them a new account on the 500 and be given a brief introduction to the new software before they use it.
