Department of Chemistry

NMR Facility

The Chemistry Department currently has three Bruker high field NMR spectrometers: one 600 Megahertz (MHz), and two 400 MHz instruments. In addition there are two 60 MHz Magritek Spinsolve NMR spectrometers equipped with autosamplers available for teaching.

Training

To use the instruments, one must attend a training class and be issued a computer login with password. If you are interested in attending a training session, please contact facilities supervisor Russ Hopson.

Names and Locations of NMRs

Name Location Probe Best NMR for

ZEUS
