NMR FACILITY

The Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (NMR) facility in the Department of Chemistry at the Indian Institute of Technology Indore is funded by DST under the FIST programme in the year 2018-19. The NMR spectrometer (500 MHz: Bruker Ascend 500) is established in a fully equipped modern spectroscopic laboratory for detection of a wide variety of nuclei (1D- and 2D H, 13 C, 19 F, and 31 P) with high resolution, and ultra-sensitivity over a broad range of sample temperature. Experienced NMR facility staffs are available for serving the needs of academia, and industry clients. To maintain the state-of-the-art research facility and to provide expedited support in high-end research, a minimum charge has been fixed for availing the facility.

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS

• Samples (well packed in Eppendorf tubes (1.5 mL) and not in polybags) and the requisition form along with the online transaction details should be sent by post.
• The user should check the solubility of the sample and suggest the best solvent for recording NMR. Please provide a ~5 mg sample for ¹H NMR and 25 mg for other nuclei (1D and 2D NMR).
• If data is not clear due to inhomogeneity or a small amount of sample, then samples will not be recorded again. You will receive an email acknowledgement as soon as the samples reach us, and the samples will not be sent back after analysis.
• The sample will be recorded, and data will be shared in soft copy with the user as per priority order (first come, first served basis).
• If the time exceeds that for special experiments as per the user instruction, every additional half hour will be charged with Rs 250/- for academic institutions and Rs 750/- for industrial samples.
• Samples should be submitted along with the sample submission form.
