Chapter L1, Problem 17CTQ
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The structure corresponding to the given IR spectrum needs to be identified.

Concept Introduction: The theory of IR spectroscopy is based on the fact that molecules absorb light of specific frequencies and these frequencies correspond to the structure of the molecules.

The IR spectroscopy contains the absorption information and its analysis in the spectrum form. From the IR spectrum, one can determine the functional groups in a compound.

The absorption of functional groups like NH,OH,CH is in the region of 3300-2700 cm1 in IR spectrum. The region of absorption of functional groups like C=C, C=N is 2140-1990 cm1 .The region of absorption of functional groups like C=O is between 1900 and 1600 cm1 . Here, the carbonyl function group is recognized at peak. This region is known as fingerprint region.
