IR spectroscopy enables us to identify different
One of the greatest advantages of IR spectroscopy is that the frequency of a particular type of vibration is typically found within a characteristic range of frequencies regardless of the functional group with which the vibration is associated. The fact that absorptions by certain vibrations appear with characteristic frequency ranges enables us to use IR spectroscopy to obtain structural information about a molecule. The absorption peak intensities are based on the oscillating dipole moment. If a particular vibrational mode causes oscillations in the molecule’s dipole moment, a photon is more likely to be absorbed which enhances the absorption intensity.

- Which of the following bonds would have a higher stretching frequency? Explain. 18 CH, H,arrow_forwardc) The two molecules below both possess a nitro group; however, one of the two nitro groups has a lower N=O stretching frequency its IR spectrum. Which molecule has the lower stretch (i.e. lower wavenumber value), and why? NO2 NO2 versusarrow_forwardDetermine the structures of these spectrums.

- Morphine, heroin, and oxycodone are three addicting analgesic narcotics. How could IR spectroscopy be used to distinguish these three compounds from each other?arrow_forwardWhy do aldehydes, esters, and amides all have a strong absorption in the 1630-1780 cm1 region of their IR spectra? A) The bond between H and the sp³-hybridized C in these functional groups vibrates in this energy range. B) Each of these functional groups has at least two resonance structures, and the different vibrations of the resonance structures give off energy in this region. C) The bond between O and the sp²-hybridized C in these functional groups vibrates at a frequency in this energy range. D) Light at this wavenumber causes the average C to O bond length to increase which causes more of this light to be transmitted. E) An electron in the bond of these functional groups gets excited to the * orbital.arrow_forward1B. Can 1H NMR spectroscopy be used to differentiate between the two compounds?
