Fast Spinning Accelerates Molecular Spectroscopy

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
CHICAGO, May 13 -- University of Illinois at Chicago chemists have discovered a new approach to speed up a conventional but rather slow way to image molecular structure, yielding results in minutes instead of days or weeks. Yoshitaka Ishii, assistant professor of chemistry, and graduate students Nalinda Wickramasinghe and Sandra Chimon, reported the findings recently in the Journal of the American Chemical Society. Their research tool is carbon-13 solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance, used to analyze molecules in nonsoluble, or "solid-state," compounds. Their targets include such important...Read full article
