NMR Core Facility

Welcome to the Princeton NMR Core Facility!

The Department of Chemistry houses a world-class nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) facility with outstanding instrumental power and experimental capabilities.

  

Facility Use

To request training, consultation, and/or assisted services, please contact the core director.  The NMR Core Facility does not currently accept reservations via iLab, this page is for informational purposes only.

 

About the Facility

The NMR Core Facility is available 24/7 to fully trained and authorized users.

Staff assisted servicse are available Monday - Friday from 9am-5pm.

 

Instrumentation Available

• A800 - Avance III 800MHz

All proton detected experiments, triple resonance (¹H/¹³C/¹⁵N) experiments, ²H detection and still pretty good for ¹³C detection.

• A500 - Avance III 500MHz

¹H(also for paramagnetic samples), ¹⁹F, ³¹P, ¹¹B and, exotic heteronuclei

•  A1 - Avance III 500MHz

All proton detected experiments, triple resonance (¹H/¹³C/¹⁵N) experiments, ²H detection
and still pretty good for ¹³C detection.

• A2 - Avance III 500MHz

Direct¹³C detection, quite good for ¹H, too, ²H detection.

• A3 - Avance III 500MHz

Unique for ¹⁵N and ³¹P, really good for the rest of the nuclei as well.

• NB300 - NanoBay 300MHz

¹H(also for paramagnetic samples), ¹⁹F, ³¹P, ¹¹B and, exotic heteronuclei

• I400 - Varian Inova 400MHz

H(also for paramagnetic samples) and ¹⁹F, not competitive for ³¹P and ¹³C
