15. NMR Spectroscopy Esterification Lecture Part 3
[SQUEAKING] [RUSTLING] [CLICKING] JOHN GRIMES: OK, well, I guess I'll get started, and let people trickle in, if anybody else is coming in. So my name is John Grimes. And I work in the chemistry department's Instrumentation Facility. And down there, we've got a number of different instruments. We have five mass spec instruments. That is not my specialty. So other than being able to point them out, I can't really tell you that much about them. I help run NMRs. And so what I do is I teach students how to use the NMRs. I will help them select what experiments they possibly need to use in order to give them the answer that they're looking for. And I'll also help them interpret the data, or at least get them started off on interpreting the data so that they can do that on their own when they're doing their own research. So what I hope to talk to you about today is what an NMR instrument is and what it actually consists of as far as the parts, what t...
