- TA and Instructor Zoom Schedule to Assist with Remote Access Experimental Lab (Schedule Coming Soon).
- CHM 343 Students – Access information using AnyDesk (The freely available AnyDesk client is available for pc, mac, tablets and smartphones. Download and install this app on the device or computer you intend to use for accessing the remote acoustic interferometer. It is recommended that you have a high speed internet connection and use a large screen device such as a laptop or desktop computer.) is provided in ASU Canvas under Module 1 (Anydesk ID and password to access the remote acoustic interferometer for Spring 2023).
Data & Error Analysis (and Reporting)
- YouTube PchemLab Channel (Several Videos on General Error Analysis, Rubrics and Reports) and ASU Canvas Module 0 provides a lot of Data and Error Analysis Information.
- Canvas – Handouts and Info on Reports, Error Analysis and Data Analysis (Copyrighted material, so only available at ASU Canvas for students enrolled in CHM 343).
- Written Project Report Template – Google Doc – Prof. Yarger.
Project 2 – ThermoChemistry
- Overview – Project 2 Handout – Professor Yarger
- ASU ONLINE CHM343 Spring 2023 Project 2 students will use benzoic acid as a standard and should pick one fatty acid and one carbohydrate (sugar) for experimental, computational and simulated calorimetry experiments. A understanding of the thermodynamics of simple fats versus carbohydrates is an important and broad reaching health and biochemistry topic.

- http://www.nmrdb.org/new_predictor/. Online resource for predicting standard 1D and 2D NMR spectra
Remote Experimental Lab
- BioPchem Blog Post on NMR Resources and Useful Links.
- NMR Remote Access Spectrometer (ASU MRRC Bruker 400 MHz NMR)
- We have finally got a stable browser based solution to remotely using the NMR spectrometer. This will hopefully eliminate many of the technical issues with using AnyDesk (which is still available and works for access currently – mrrc_bruker_400@ad).
- Instructions for using your local computer browser for remote NMR access and experiments:
- Connect to the ASU VPN (Cisco AnyConnect SSLVPN – available at myapps.asu.edu)
- In separate Chrome Browser tabs navigate to the following 4 web addresses / links.
- CHM343 NMR Schedule – Spring 2023 – Shared Google Sheet.
- nmrcam2.asu.edu (username: guest password: guest) – Live View NMR Camera.
- http://129.219.52.109:8015 (User ID: chm343) – Bruker Icon Web (Automated NMR in-browser)
- spintropy.com (username: asu_chm343 password: provided to students at ASU-Canvas)
- Icon web is very similar to IconNMR and allows students to remotely submit NMR experiments. Once remote NMR data has been collected, it will be automatically uploaded to spintropy, as long as the correct Spintropy Username is entered (asu_chm343). You can download your data from the asu_chm343 ‘Data’ section (or look at a plot of the data). It is recommended that NMRium be used for NMR data processing and analysis (again, web browser based app).
- NMRium – NMR spectra processing for everybody (excellent in-browser NMR processing).
Data & Error Analysis (and Reporting)
- YouTube PchemLab Channel (Several Videos on General Error Analysis, Rubrics and Reports) and ASU Canvas Module 0 provides a lot of Data and Error Analysis Information.
- Canvas – Handouts and Info on Reports, Error Analysis and Data Analysis (Copyrighted material, so only available at ASU Canvas for students enrolled in CHM 343).
