NMR

  • A Chemical Chorus

    Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectrometers (aka. Hidden Force Looking Machines) use very large magnets to help study the structure of chemical molecules. When molecules are inside a magnetic field, they behave in a similar way to tiny bells which can...

  • Hidden Force Looking Machine

    Second year CSCT student, Andrew Hall is currently working towards his PhD looking at “Biogenic Alcohols and Sugars as Sustainable Reductants: A Combined Spectroscopic and Theoretical Approach to the Development of New Homogeneous Catalysts for Dehydrogenation, Hydrogen Transfer and Reverse...

  • Small Molecule NMR – a SMASHing time

    The following blog comes from Andrew Hall, who between the 20th-24th September, attended the Small Molecule NMR Conference within the beautiful setting of Lake Maggiore in Northern Italy. SMASH NMR is not something you do when your Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectrometer...

  • UK-China workshop on the chemistry and physics of functional materials

    On Monday 28 and Tuesday 29 January 2013, our student Ibbi Ahmet attended a Theo Murphy international scientific meeting held by The Royal Society, which "intended to be pivotal events of lasting significance." This report comes from second-year DTC student...
