UW CHEMISTRY NMR

Dear Users

This is in continuation of the announcement I made sometime ago about the imminent arrival of a brand new 500 MHz NMR spectrometer to our facility.

Starting the afternoon of tomorrow, Friday the 3rd, a series of events will take place :

• The AV500 CONSOLE will be shut down and retired permanently (the current TBI probe in the magnet will remain there for the present)
• GG500 console will be relocated and paired with the magnet that was serving AV500 all these years.  As of now, the system will run with the TBI probe
• Beginning next week, the brand new NEO500 NMR console will be paired up with the magnet in Rm.33, which was originally serving GG500 (The installation process will take several days, performed by a Bruker Engineer)

We estimate that the GG500 in its new location should be ready for use not later than the middle of next week (conservative estimate)

We will announce more details about the new system later.

That’s the rough road map as of today.

Please send your comments are questions about these anytime.
