In October 2021 IVAN will host a F19 Workshop. Medicinal chemists might incorporate fluorine atoms into drug molecules to modulate attributes like biological activity or metabolic stability.  Modern methods have improved the chemist’s ability to integrate fluorine into synthetic schemes which, in turn, means that more than half of the[...]

Time course analysis of chemical processes provide unparalleled insight into reaction mechanism with a minimum number of experiments. Among potential analytical technologies, real-time NMR is unique in its ability to simultaneously provide details pertaining to chemical structure, speciation, and concentration. This panel will introduce several recent advances in analytical hardware[...]

The topic of our January round-table workshop (Thursday January 20, 2022, 12:00 Noon EDT) will be a discussion of Benchtop NMR. Paul Bowyer of JEOL UK will lead the panel that includes Kate Kemsley (Quadram Institute, Norwich UK), Travis Gregar (3M, USA), David Foley (Merck, USA) and Maria Silva Elipe[...]

Quantitative analysis of NMR spectra is a challenging task when complex mixtures with many species are studied. This is especially true for process analysis e.g. in the chemical or food industry. Typically, the data sets are large and the concentration of the relevant species differ by orders of magnitude. Furthermore,[...]

While quantitative 1H NMR has beeen well described and is routinely used for many applications, it also has limitations arising from the characteristic features of NMR spectroscopy: spectral crowding and low sensitivity. We will provide a perspective on recent evolutions of quantitative NMR that go beyond 1D 1H NMR. These[...]

Announcing the Agenda for the Pre-ENC IVAN User Meetingon April 23, 2022, just before the 63rd ENC Join us Saturday from 9:00 AM to 4:30 PM EDT for a hybrid user meeting, in person andbroadcast live on Zoom from the IVAN hospitality suite at the Hyatt in Orlando! The ENC[...]

Warmly Welcome you to join us each evening for fun, prizes and camaraderie.We will have numerous evening drawings, including our now famous wooden periodic table cutting boards, Q One Cabernet in laser etched bottles and valuable VISA gift cards.New this year is our “IVAN Hour” on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday[...]

We've all been made very aware of the severity of the current shortage of helium supply by the announcement that the Pacific Northwest National Lab (PNNL) was forced to de-energize five of their 28 systems to deal with the reduced allocation.  We have assembled a panel of experts both on[...]

The topic of our June round-table workshop (Thursday June 23, 2022, 1:00 PM EDT) will be a discussion of Molecular Conformation via NMR. Dr. Mikhail “Misha” Reibarkh (Sr. Principal Scientist at Merck & Co, Inc, Rahway NJ) will lead the panel that includes Dr. Amber Balazs (Associate Director at AstraZeneca,[...]

The topic of our July round-table workshop (Thursday July 21, 2022, 12:00 PM EDT) will be a discussion of Applied NMR Methodologies for Polymer Understanding. Understanding polymer-based systems in solution/dispersion or in solids is not often easy. This workshop focuses on the use of NMR in understanding polymer distributions, functionalization,[...]

Join us Thursday August. 04, 2022 from 12:00 noon to 2:00 pm EDT for a follow-up session of the Pre ENC 2022 IVAN user meeting, via Zoom. As many of you might have recognized, our User Meeting on April 23, 2022 was cut short due to unforeseen technical difficulties for[...]

Analytical chemists have long used NMR as part of a greater technical tool box to solve problems.  With the introduction of benchtop NMR spectrometers, new doors have opened that now allow NMR to be applied in new circumstances previously not possible.  This workshop will highlight uses of benchtop NMR in[...]
