The NMR facility consists of seven Bruker superconducting spectrometers, varying in field strength from 4.7 to 11.7 tesla (200-500 MHz). The oldest of these instruments is an AC-200 acquired in 1983, and the latest an AMX-II 500 acquired in Jan. 1994. The facility has multinuclei observe and decouple capability at several fields (200 and 500 MHz) and routine carbon/proton observe ability on all of the instruments. The latest of these instruments: AMX-500 and AMX-II-500 are capable of triple resonance multi-dimensional experiments. All of the instruments are linked to off-line data processing on a variety of data-stations including Bruker-Aspect 3000; Mac Quadra-800; and SGI systems. An Ethernet NMR subnetwork speeds data transfer to the SGI system and a variety of Macintoshes equipped with NMR processing software located throughout the Chemistry Department. Operation of the networked instruments can be monitored off-site via the departmental and campus-wide annex-servers using internet slip technology.
The Department of Chemistry also has an Biological NMR Facility.
The NMR Facilities are directed by George T. Furst.
