  9. NMR Magnet Safety • NMR magnets are always charged! • NMR magnets may interfere with medical devices (i.e. pacemakers, insulin pumps) • NMR magnets will erase credit cards, ID cards, floppy disks, hard disks (some mp3 players). • NMR magnets and RF consoles may interfere with electronic and mechanical devices and may damage them (cell phones, pagers, watches, I-pods, etc.) • NMR magnets will attract ferromagnetic objects of any size (i.e. paper clips, coins, keys, pens, scissors, screw drivers, wrenches, metallic chairs, gas cylinders, etc.) and spectrometer and people may sustain severe damage or injury, if handled carelessly. • NMR magnets contain Cryogens (liquid Helium and Nitrogen) • Cryogens can cause severe burns if handled improperly (use eye protection and gloves during refills). • Cryogens evaporate and may cause asphyxiation if a lab is not properly ventilated. • During a magnet quench up to 100 liters of liquid Helium are vaporized in a matter of minutes (2600 cu ft, 70,000 liters gas) and may cause asphyxiation, even if the lab is well ventilated. If a magnet quenches, leave the lab immediately. Don’t panic, helium gas will rise to the ceiling and escape through cracks. • During a refill the refill rubber tubing may shatter. Frozen rubber cuts like glass!!

  15. NMR Samples • Types of NMR sample holders • Sample preparation • Spectrum quality

  16. Types of NMR Sample Holders Solution NMR Sample Tube Spinners Solid State Sample Rotors NMR Sample Tubes with Caps

  17. NMR Sample Preparation Tubes and Caps: • NMR tubes are a standard length (7 and 9 inch). When chipped (and reduced in length) they should not be reused as an unbalanced tube will not spin. • Always clean the tubes thoroughly after use. First use the solvent you were using to recover your previous sample, then rinse several times with acetone and finally dry the sample tube laying flat on a layer of kimwipes or placed upside-down on a kimwipe in a beaker or Erlenmeyer flask. Choose the container so the tubes stand vertically. Don’t heat the tubes above 50 °C, as the glass might warp. Always store unused, clean tubes uncapped and laying on a flat surface. • Tube caps are disposable and replacements can be easily obtained in bags of 100 ($5) or 1000 ($40 at www.wilmad.com). Degassing Samples: • NMR spectra recorded using degassed solvents usually benefit from reduced half-height line-width and thus better S/N. (O2 gas is paramagnetic!) • There are several ways of degassing your sample: • the best is the freeze-pump-thaw technique, • placing the sample in a ultrasonic bath works moderately well, • bubbling nitrogen through or over the sample less well.

  18. NMR Sample Preparation Quantity: • For proton NMR spectra of small organic compounds (up to MW=500) anything between 1 and 20 mg of sample will be fine. Concentrated solutions can be viscous and may result in broad signals. Very dilute samples could be masked by impurities and solvent peaks. • Carbon-13 is present at approximately 1.1 % natural abundance. It is intrinsically less sensitive than protons (approx. six thousand times). Please provide as much sample as possible, 50 - 100 mg (or more) is fine. Preparing two samples - one dilute sample for proton NMR and one concentrated sample for carbon NMR is a useful, but unnecessary practice. • Solvent height (volume) should be uniform, 5 cm or 2 inches equal 0.5 ml. The ends of the sample distort the field homogeneity, shimming on each sample corrects this effect and takes just a minute or so. However, vastly different solvent heights (volumes) prevent complete correction and require many minutes shimming to achieve acceptable homogeneity. • Samples prepared with too much solvent waste both time and money, and provide poorer S/N. However, If you have limited amounts of sample (less than 1 mg), using less solvent is permissible. Minimum height: 1 cm, however, this requires special positioning of the sample tube and very intensive shimming.

  19. NMR Sample Preparation • Use clean + dry NMR tubes and caps (tubes can be re-used, caps should not!) • 0.5 ml deuterated solvent (i.e. CDCl ,C D , acetone-d ,etc.) • substrate requirements for routine spectra: 10 mg for proton NMR 100 mg for carbon-13 NMR • min. filling height of tube: 2 inches (5 cm) • Cleaning of tubes: 1. rinse with solvent you were using 2. rinse with acetone 3. dry in (vacuum-)oven at low temperature 5 mm 3 6 6 6

  21. NMR Sample Preparation Shimming improves the magnetic field homogeneity If the magnetic field is not uniform within the sample, molecules in different positions will experience different field strengths. This will produce broad, distorted, or additional signals.

  40. A letter in the New Scientist of 17 April 1999, signed by Terry McStea, Whitburn, Tyne and Wear: Your article on MRI (This Week, 3 April, p 7) reminded me of a story, probably untrue, related by a doctor friend. MRI used to be known in hospitals as nuclear magnetic resonance, or NMR. Unfortunately, patients who arrived at the hospital asking for "an NMR" often received a treatment that they were not expecting. Hence the change to MRI.
