Retrieving an NMR data file from the Bruker Spectrometers

1. 
   Now, from the Software Hub panel, firstly select a chemistry filter
   1. If you cannot see anything relating to the software hub, open a Web Browser and type: https://softwarehub.imperial.ac.uk/login as the URL and proceed to log in using your Imperial Credentials.
2. 
   From the list of chemistry programs (33) invoke MestreNova. Use the latest version (14).
3. Next, on Windows 10, type run into the search box at the bottom left.
4. 
   In the run box, type (or copy/paste) \\ch-nmrserv3.ch.ic.ac.uk\Av400D\ug1\nmr and navigate down through to the folder allocated to your spectrum.
   1. You may have to find your file from the date submitted and by inspection of your initials associated with a spectrum.
   2. One way of finding your spectrum is to drag-n-drop a prospective folder (with a name such as 10 and with the correct date) into the MestreNova window. A spectrum will appear and your initials will be shown in the top left of the spectrum.
5. 
   Once you have found your folder, select that folder, right click to get the menu shown, from which you invoke Send To and then Compressed (zipped) folder. It will ask you Do you want it to be placed on the desktop itself? to which you reply Yes.
   1. You can now Drag-n-drop the Bruker .zip data file from the Desktop into the MestreNova empty window.
6. 
   A spectrum will (again) appear. Check again it has your initials associated with it.
7. 
   When you have finished inspecting the spectrum, save the data file using Save as as a .mnova file and optionally repeat for a .jdx format. Take care to note where you are saving the files (on the desktop in this example).

You will now have all the files you need to make your data deposition.
