Electron Spin Resonance (ESR) spectroscopy is a key technique                   for the study of molecules that contain an unpaired electron.                   ESR measurements on inorganic, organometallic and organic                       materials under photochemical, electrochemical and thermal                      stimulation lead to an understanding of chemical structure that                 is unattainable by any other technique.  The acquisition of ESR                 instrumentation enhances the ability of chemists to carry out                   frontier research.                                                                                                                                              The Department of Chemistry of the Massachusetts Institute of                   Technology and the Francis Bitter National Magnet Laboratory                    will use this award from the Chemistry Shared Instrumentation                   Program to aid in the purchase of an ESR spectrometer.  Studies                 in various areas of chemistry will be enhanced and include the                  following:                                                                                                                                                         1) Polyiron centers in chemistry and biology                                    2) Cytochrome P450 and nitrogen fixation biochemistry                           3) Nickel methanogenisis                                                        4) High oxidation stat molybdenum and tungsten dinitrogen                          complexes                                                                    5) Technetium radiopharmaceuticals and related technetium                          chemistry                                                                    6) ESR studies of organometallic molecules and                                     multicomponent redox reagents                                                7) Electronics and magnetic properties of iron-sulfur                              protein site analogues
