Infrared Spectroscopy
• Read Chapter 25, pp 833 to 867
• Work problems on page 866-867

Typical Infrared Absorption
Regions
WWU -- Chemistry
O-H stretch
• The OH peak is very strong and broad!
• It usually appears near 3400 cm-1
WWU -- Chemistry
C-H stretch
• sp3 C-H stretch comes at 2950 cm-1
• sp2 C-H stretch comes at 3050 cm-1
• sp C-H stretch comes at 3300 cm-1
WWU -- Chemistry
C=C stretch
• C=C stretch occurs near 1650 cm-1
• It is often weak unless it is conjugated
to a C=O

WWU -- Chemistry
C-O stretch
• The C-O band appears in the range of
1300 to 1000 cm-1
• Look for one or more strong bands
appearing in this range!
• Ethers, alcohols, esters and carboxylic
acids have C-O bands
WWU -- Chemistry
C-H bendings
• Bendings aren’t as important as
stretches.
• See page 848-850
• CH2 bending: 1450 cm-1
• CH3 bending: 1375 cm-1

The experiment
• Run the IR spectrum on the two
enantiomers
• Run a sample of each enantiomer
through the gas chromatograph
• Determine the optical rotations for
each enantiomer
• Calculate the specific rotation for each
enantiomer

Chapter 10 in your lecture textbook
Review Techniques 1 through 6

WWU -- Chemistry
Changes to Exp 19 laboratory
• We will be using 1-pentanol,
2-pentanol, 3-pentanol and 2-methyl-2butanol instead of what is shown in the
book.
• The procedure stays the same; just
change the alcohols.
• Start 21A first, then do 21B, and then
come back to finish 21A.
• Part 21C: gas chromatography only
• Signup for 1, 2, and 3-pentanol

We expect that the reaction of 2-methyl-2-butanol
with the solvent nucleophile mixture to be SN1.
Why didn’t it come out as a 50-50 mixture?
