Section II: Object
      
II.1) Scope of the procurement - 1
   II.1.1) Title: Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) probe    
          Reference number: T23/0110
   II.1.2) Common Procurement Vocabulary:       
      33114000 - Spectroscopy devices.
   II.1.3) Type of contract: SUPPLIES
   II.1.4) Short description:    
      The team is working on tunable and predictable small molecule light emitters from a fluorinated amine scaffolds project. Within this project, the team will build a structure-property relationship around two constrained amine scaffolds, with a particular focus on tuning their photoluminescent properties. This will involve the strategic incorporation of fluorine atoms, and the analysis of this small compound library will be supported by a Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) probe which enables simultaneous 1H and 19F decoupling of 13C NMR spectra. The probe will also support the characterisation of key intramolecular distances through the acquisition of 1H NOE spectra.          
   II.1.5) Estimated total value:       
      Value excluding VAT (give figures only) : 40,000 - GBP

      The contracting authority reserves the right to award contracts combining the following lots or groups of lots: Not Provided

II.2) Lot Description          
   II.2.2) Additional CPV code(s):       
      33114000 - Spectroscopy devices.       
   II.2.3) Place of performance:       
      Region Codes:               
         UKC - NORTH EAST (ENGLAND)    
   II.2.4) Description of the procurement:       
      The procurement involves acquiring a Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) multi-purpose probe for a research project focused on developing a family of light-emitting small molecules. The goal is to establish structure-property relationships between photophysical properties, intramolecular distances, and the identity of light-emitting chromophores. Equipment Supply: Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) multi-purpose probe capable of precise measurement of molecular distances and structural characterization.    
   II.2.14) Additional information          
      This project addresses the current limitations in designing small molecules with predictable light-emitting properties by enabling the precise control of molecular distances and chromophore identities. The inclusion of fluorine atoms in the chromophores will enhance emission wavelength tuning, crucial for developing viable biosensors.
