Magnets are in many of the devices we use on a regular basis. They're used in the doors of our freezers and refrigerators, they power the speakers on our stereos and earphones, and are even used in data storage for our computers. Different magnets are used for different devices depending on the need for that device. This includes the magnets in NMR spectrometers as well.

The media is bombarding us daily with two messages on opposite sides of the coin. One message displays record-high infection rates due to COVID-19, while the other focuses on the release of messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines initially by Pfizer-BioNTech, followed by Moderna. With so many drastic changes…

Both relaxometry and spectroscopy are valued NMR tools for chemical analysis. Both techniques are useful in revealing information on chemical samples. Spectrometers have extremely homogeneous magnetic fields and can provide structural information about composition and connectivity about a molecule whereas relaxometers are less homogenous and provide time-domain data that give information about the bulk properties of a sample such as viscosity and solid fat content.

The compact NMR 60PRO can acquire both, coupled 31P and decoupled 31P NMR spectra. Benchtop NMR 1-855-NMREADY (667-3239) toll-free in the US and Canada

Process analytical technology (PAT) is a useful tool for optimizing, analyzing, and controlling chemical processes. PAT helps to improve the manufacturing process overall by preventing manufacturing errors, reducing the risk of variability in chemical processes, and monitoring for byproduct formation. PAT also increases the efficiency of the manufacturing process, reduces environmental impact, improves production safety, and reduces costs.

In this blog post, we show an example for on-line flow reaction monitoring via 19F NMR spectroscopy using the compact benchtop NMR. 1-855-NMREADY (667-3239) toll-free in the US and Canada

In this blog post, I’ll feature work done by Vilela et al. with the NMReady-60 and illustrate how it can be used for on-line reaction monitoring and to optimize reaction conditions for the generation of singlet oxygen using BODIPY photosensitisers.

Electronegativity is a concept that we have to study and understand early in our science or engineering degrees. In chemistry this concept stays with us and we commonly invoke it in order to explain multiple phenomena what we observe or study…and of course, NMR is not the exception!
