Interpretation of IR spectra

of organic compound
Mrs. S. D. Godse
In any group of three or more atoms, at least two of which are identical, there are two
modes of stretching: symmetric and asymmetric. Examples of such groupings are
CH3, CH2, NO2, NH2, and anhydrides.
• CLASSIFICATION OF IR BANDS
The intensity of the bands depends on the
magnitude of the dipole moment:
• Strongly polar bonds such as carbonyl groups
(C=O) produce strong bands.
• Medium polarity bonds and asymmetric bonds
produce medium bands.
• Weakly polar bond and symmetric bonds
produce weak or non observable bands.

Stretching along the axis does not change dipole moment


(non-polar bond).
Ex 2-Butyne.
CH₃C≡CCH₃.
INFRARED BAND SHAPES
• Two of the most common are narrow and broad.
Hook’s Law
• Hooke’s Law describes the relationship of frequency to mass and bond length.
• F is the force constant of bond.

in order of increasing bond strength compare:


CC bonds:
C-C (1000 cm-1)< C=C (1600 cm-1) < C≡C (2200 cm-1)
CH bonds:
C-C-H (2900 cm-1)< C=C-H (3100 cm-1) < C≡C-H (3300 cm-1
in order of increasing reduced mass compare:
C-H (3000 cm-1), C-C (1000 cm-1), C-Cl (800 cm-1), C-Br (550 cm-1), C-I (about
500 cm)-1

ALKANES
• C-H Stretch occurs around 3000 cm−1.
• C-H2 Methyle bending absorption at 1465 cm−1.
• C-H3 Methyl groups bending absorption at 1375 cm−1.
• C-C Stretch not interpretatively useful.

• C=O stretch appears
in the range 1740–
1725 cm−1

C=O stretch appears


in the range 1720–
1708 cm-1

2400 cm−1.
