Infrared Spectroscopy • Read Chapter 25, pp 833 to 867 • Work problems on page 866-867 WWU -- Chemistry
Typical Infrared AbsorptionRegions 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
Normal Base Values for C=O Stretching 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 WWU -- Chemistry

Experiment 15Spearmint and Caraway • Experiment 15, pp124-131 • Essay: pp119-123 • Technique 25 (Infrared spectroscopy) • Technique 22 (Gas Chromatography, especially, Section 22.8 on page 806 and Fig 22.7) • Technique 23 (Polarimetry) WWU -- Chemistry
Spearmint and Caraway Oils Limonene is present In both oils WWU -- Chemistry
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 WWU -- Chemistry
Nucleophilic Substitution: Competing Nucleophiles Experiment 21 WWU -- Chemistry
Reading Assignment • pp. 180-190 (Exp 21) and 510-514 (exp 58) • Chapter 10 in your lecture textbook • Review Techniques 1 through 6 • Technique 7 (Sections 7.2, 7.4, 7.5, 7.8) • Technique 12 (Sections 12.5, 12.9, 12.11) • Technique 22 • Technique 21 (omit this quarter) WWU -- Chemistry
Changes to Exp 19 laboratory • We will be using 1-pentanol, 2-pentanol, 3-pentanol and 2-methyl-2-butanol 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 WWU -- Chemistry
