Question
Answer
What is infrared spectroscopy used for   find functional groups  
🗑
symmetric bonds and IR   do not show up because they involve no net change in dipole moment  
🗑
IR carbonyls   sharp peak at 1,700cm-1  
🗑
IR hydroxides   broad peak at 3,300cm-1  
🗑
IR amines   sharper peaks at 3,300 and 3,400cm-1 for primary amines, secondary amines have one peak  
🗑
H-NMR   useful to find the structure of a compound and can also reveal functional groups  
🗑
what does H-NMR measure   how deshielded (how much electron density has been pulled away) protons are on a molecule. gamma=0-12 ppm. the more deshielded the proton is, the further down-field it will be.  
🗑
H-NMR aldehyde   9 to 10 ppm (highly deshielded)  
🗑
H-NMR caroxylic acid   10.5 to 12 ppp (highly deshielded)  
🗑
H-NMR hydrogen aromatic ring   6.5 to 8.5 ppm  
🗑
how to tell how much deshielding   concept of electronegativity, the more electron density that is pulled away from the proton, the more deshielded in will be.  
🗑
H-NMR coupling   protons three bonds apart experience coupling. If there is one proton three bonds away, its a doublet; if there are two, its a triplet; three, its a quartet  
🗑
C-NMR   similar to H-NMR but gamma=0-210ppm  
🗑
what is UV spectroscopy useful for   conjugated compounds  
🗑
Mass spectroscopy   used to find the mass of the compound and the masses of fragments of the compound  
🗑
compounds that will show absorption in the 1750 region   (carbonyls) ketones, aldehydes, carboxylic acids, any caboxylic acid derivative(acid anhydrides, acid halides, amides, esters)  
🗑
acid, alcohol O-H peak   broad peak, above 3000  
🗑
Amine N-H peak   sharp peak, above 3000  
🗑
Alkane C-H peak   sharp peak, below 3000  
🗑
what does the area under the signal represent   the total area under the signal corresponds to the number of nuclei represented by that signal  
🗑
NMR spec based on hybridization   H bonded to sp3 hybridized carbon shift between 0 and 5. if bonded to an sp2 hybridized carbon shift between 5-10. divide spectrum in half, sp3 right, sp2 left  
🗑
what compounds are always conjugated   aromatic molecule  
🗑
important peaks on mass-spec   base peak-tallest peak, most abundant ion, assigned relative abundance of 100. Molecular ion or parent peak (M+) peak furthest to the right, usually equivalent to molecular weight of original molecule  
🗑
mass spectroscopy results in the separation of fragments according to   mass-to-charge ratio  
🗑
