The NMR facility brings together an interdisciplinary group of researchers comprising of faculty from Chemistry, Biochemistry and Biology. Presently the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry NMR facility manages three high resolution NMR spectrometers. A Bruker Avance III HD 800 MHz spectrometer equipped with a TCI cryoprobe. A Varian INOVA 600 MHz spectrometer equipped with a triple resonances cryoprobe. And a recently upgraded Bruker Avance III HD 500 MHz spectrometer equipped with a mutinuclear Smart Probe.
The Departments of Chemistry and Biochemistry, and Department of Biology are engaged in NMR structural elucidation of anticancer natural product isolation from marine organisms, organic intermediates for drug synthesis, specially designed peptide intermediates, and oligonucleotide derivatives which remain attached to solid supports.
