Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR)

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR)

The Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Facility recognizes the important role that NMR plays in molecular structure determination and conformational analysis for research projects engaging chemical synthesis, chemical mixture characterization, drug design, and intermolecular interaction studies. The Department of Chemistry's NMR Facility serves the high-resolution research needs for investigators from the University of Connecticut, nearby colleges, and companies and offers several solution-state NMR instruments on a fee-for-use basis.

Bruker AVANCE III 400 MHz

This workhorse of the Chemistry Department is equipped with a two-channel console and a 5mm BBFO probe with 19F capability. It delivers a signal-to-noise ratio 300 for 1H, 275 for 19F, 190 for 13C, 150 for 31P, and 20 for 15N with automatic tuning and matching to selected nuclei. The AVANCE 400 is used for both one-dimensional and advanced two-dimensional experiments. It is located in the Chemistry Building, room R002.
