Service

(Note: We prioritise internal service requests from the institute.)

NMR@kofo is an analytical service department, which provides unbiased and specialized expertise for NMR-related analytical requirements in the field of chemistry and catalysis. Our experienced team provides know-how that spans many fields of applications and our state-of-the-art equipment offers a wide range of technical capabilities:

• Structural Characterization and Elucidation
• Kinetic Experiments and In-Situ Reaction Monitoring
• Variable Temperature NMR and Thermodynamic Studies
• Para-Hydrogen Induced Polarization (PHIP) NMR
• High-Pressure NMR
• Protein NMR
• Diffusion Experiments
• 3D-Structure and Dynamics Modelling
• Multicomponent Analysis
• Static and MAS Solid-state NMR

NMR data for many different NMR-active spins have been collected in recent years: e.g. ¹H, ²H, ¹¹B, ¹³C, ¹⁵N, ¹⁷O, ¹⁹F, ²⁷Al, ²⁹Si, ³¹P, ⁷⁷Se, ⁹⁵Mo, ¹⁰³Rh, ¹⁰⁹Ag, ¹¹⁹Sn, ¹⁸³W, and ¹⁹⁵ Pt.

The department also has access to numerous NMR tools for processing, analysis, simulation and databases.

Open Access and Routine NMR

Basic NMR measurements in liquid state can be carried out in high-throughput mode on a dedicated “open access” 300-MHz NMR spectrometers at room temperature. With minimal set-up, ...  

Advanced NMR Analyses

Particularly challenging NMR investigations of compounds and reactions in solution can be submitted for Advanced Analysis. For these samples,  

Solid-State NMR

Solid-state NMR spectroscopy is one of the most important techniques for the characterisation of solid catalysts and other new materials synthesized in the department of Heterogeneous Catalysis. In recent years, solid-state NMR has...
