Available measurements
APPLICATIONS AND SERVICES
The Organic Chemistry Groups of the Chemistry Department offer the following opportunity: analysis and separation of mixtures, molecular characterization and structural of organic compounds. In particular:
- Synthesis in environment and controlled conditions (inert gas, anhydrous conditions)
- Synthesis of fluorophores, surfactants, materials / organic compounds for photovoltaics, natural organic compounds and their derivatives
- Optimization of synthesis conditions, even in "Green" conditions through the use of DES (Deep Euthectic Solvents) and / or micellar systems
- Complete structural characterization of organic compounds (multinuclear NMR, UV-Vis, Fluorescence and FT-IR, Polarimetry, Mass Spectrometry)
Price list
It is possible to access the infrastructure by reservation, accompanied by authorized staff, and / or send samples for analysis (without directly accessing the structure). The technical feasibility of the request is evaluated and the experiments. Rates are defined according to specific requests.
