Flow Chemistry Instrumentation at University of Graz
The Kappe Laboratories occupy ca. 400 m2 of well-equipped state-of-the-art laboratory space at the Institute of Chemistry (IfC) at the University of Graz, sufficient to accommodate 25 researchers to have bench and office space. The group is well-equipped with all standard analytical instrumentation for performing organic synthesis (HPLC-UV(DAD), LC-MS(ESI), GC-FID, GC-MS(EI), semi-preparative HPLC-UV, automated flash chromatography, etc.) and has access to a range of departmental equipment including a variety of high-field NMR instruments (700, 500 and 300 MHz) in addition to IR, UV, various high resolution mass spectrometers (e.g., Q-TOF LC-MS), and analytical instrumentation (ICP-MS).
We are able to work with controlled substances and have access to dedicated laboratories designed to allow handling of highly potent substances (Occupational Exposure Banding Level 4).
