Facilities
The department of chemistry has all the instruments required for the successful realization of our research topics, and we have full access to these instruments.
We have a glove box (left) and a solvent purification system (right). The catalysts in the glove box enable oxygen and moisture levels below 5 ppm. With the solvent purification system we have access to 8 dry solvents/reagents.

We have 400 and 600 MHz nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrometers from Bruker. Both are equipped with autosamplers.

We have a gas chromatography instrument (GC, left) and a gas chromatography mass spec (GC-MS, right) for rapid analysis and quantification of reaction mixtures. Both are equipped with autosamplers.![3. GC & GC-MS.jpg](/Content/776478/cache=1654323525000/3.%20GC%20%26%20GC-MS.jpg)
We have 2 instruments for high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS). One of them is equipped with an autosampler. ![4. HRMS.jpg](/Content/776479/cache=1654323572000/4.%20HRMS.jpg)
We have instruments for supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC, left) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC, right). The SFC is equipped with autosampler and mass spectrometry (MS), and among others is used for separation of enantiomers. ![5. SFC & HPLC.jpg](/Content/776480/cache=1654323719000/5.%20SFC%20%26%20HPLC.jpg)
We have vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) and infrared (IR) spectrophotometers.
