• Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), Infrared Resonance (IR), Isolera.

• Familiar with High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), gas chromatographic mass spectrometry

(GCMS), UV-vis spectrophotometer Fourier-transformation infrared spectroscopy(FTIR). WORK EXPERIENCE

University of Central Oklahoma, Edmond August 2018-May 2020 Research Assistant, Advance towards the Utilization of Cucurbit [8] uril and selected viologen in molecular machine and devices.

• Synthesized different viologens, studied their binding modes by 1HNMR chemical shift data and binding constant with CB [7] and CB [8] by 1HNMR competition study.

• Used Isolera, reversed phased chromatography to purify viologens.

• Used NMR machine to determine the structure of the molecules. The goal of our research is to study how different selected molecules bind with CB[7] and CB[8] which could be further utilized in molecular machines and biomarkers.
