Hello.
I am working on a project that may be of great benefit to people with Parkinson's or Alzheimer's Disease but I need some NMR work done on the product(s) to confirm that I have the correct molecule and to determine the amount of it.
I can provide the test material and both standards (a pair of diastereomers) as dried precipitates or in ethanol. A publication (20 years old) gives a complete assignment of the 1H and 13C NMR spectra of both molecules dissolved in chloroform. I'm pretty sure I can produce milligram amounts of the target molecule(s) but do not know how pure it is.
I've out-sourced a “feasibility study” for this NMR work but to continue with this (or any) CRO is too expensive. I cannot offer any contributions to your costs or university overheads. It is impossible to patent this.
I'm looking for someone with an NMR machine who is willing to help in return for being the second author on a paper (to be submitted to a suitable peer-reviewed journal) with the potential to be highly cited in the area of neurology and that might help millions of people burdened with neurodegenerative diseases.
If you are interested and have the machine and skills to create and interpret NMRs, please email me.
Best regards,
Jamie
