## Summary

The University of Northumbria at Newcastle is planning a procurement process for a Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) probe for a research project focusing on developing small molecule light emitters. The project aims to establish structure-property relationships between photophysical properties, intramolecular distances, and light-emitting chromophores. The procurement involves acquiring a multi-purpose NMR probe to enable precise measurement of molecular distances and structural characterization to enhance emission wavelength tuning.

This tender created by the University of Northumbria at Newcastle offers an opportunity for businesses involved in supplying spectroscopy devices and related equipment. Companies specialising in scientific equipment supply and research-focused enterprises would be well-suited to compete in this tender. The planned communication for future notices related to this tender is scheduled for 30th May 2024.

## Notice

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.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

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. 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.
