Isolating Isoamyl acetate

In this blog, we analyze both the aqueous and organic layers during the separation step in the synthesis of Isoamyl Acetate to determine whether the product is in a different layer than the starting reagents.

Benchtop NMR spectroscopy for pharmacopeial assays of over-the-counter medicines

This blog post introduces some of the results we obtained in the collaborative publication of our white paper with the United States Pharmacopeia. It discusses the use of benchtop NMR spectroscopy for the analysis of over-the-counter medicines, and showcases how quantum mechanics can help reduce time requirements and lower accessibility barriers for industrial quality control.

Why 100 MHz Benchtop NMR?

While low-field NMR has extremely favourable accessibility and affordable characteristics, the most common question that we get asked about our family of benchtop NMR spectrometers is with respect to any trade-offs that come from moving to lower-field.

How does the lock work?

Magnets used to manufacture low-field and high-field NMR spectrometers are not perfect and the magnetic field that they generate is prone to drift for a variety of reasons. However, during an NMR experiment it is important to keep the magnetic field as stable as possible to prevent the signals from drifting. This is taken care of by the lock system.

Origin of Chemical Shifts

It is common to mention the frequency of an NMR instrument instead of its field. When someone says: I have in my laboratory a 100 MHz instrument, it means that a spectrometer where the protons precess with a frequency of 100 MHz (Lamour frequency) is available in the lab…
