Introduction: Spectroscopy deals with the transitions that a molecule undergoes between its energy levels upon absorption of suitable radiations determined by quantum mechanical selections rule. UV visible and IR spectroscopy plays an exclusive role in the study of various molecules with the help of analytical techniques like colorimetry, flame photometry and spectrophotometry, etc. Beer Lambert s law: When a beam of monochromatic radiation is passed into a homogeneous absorbing medium, the rate of decrease of intensity of radiation (I) with thickness of absorbing medium (x) is proportional to the intensity of incident radiation as well as the concentration of the solution. - di / dx I C - di / dx = k I C di / I = - k C dx On integration at I 0 I; 0 x = - k C ln (I / I 0 ) = - k C x ln (I / I) = k C x log (I 0 / I) = k C x log (I 0 / I) = k C x / A = ε C x (1) This equation (1) is the mathematical form of Beer Lambert s law. Where A = absorbance, ε = molar extinction co-efficient or molar absorptivity & x = thickness. Application: It is used to determine the concentration of unknown solution. 1

2 Limitations: 1. The law is invalid, when non- monochromatic radiation is used. 2. The law is invalid, if temperature changes during measurements. 3. The law is only applicable for dilute solutions. UV Visible Spectroscopy: Absorption radiation in the UV (wave length range = nm) and Visible (wave length range = nm) regions of the electromagnetic spectrum results transitions between electronic levels. This is due to the larger energy change corresponds to ,000 kj/mol which cause simultaneous change in vibrational and rotation energies. E elec > E vib > E rot Generally energy change due to electronic transition is greater than that of vibrational and rotational transitions. Hence the UV and Visible spectra of simple molecules exihibit narrow absorption peaks. Permitted energy levels in UV and Visible regions. The vibrational and rotational fine structure lines are not observed during the spectrum is run in solution. This is because of the physical interactions between sample organic molecule and the solvent molecule, cause collisional broadening of the lines. Electronic absorption spectrum of a solution of benzene in hexane. 2

3 The above spectra of benzene shows larger peaks at 250 nm due to the presence of П electrons and smaller peaks & troughs indicate vibrations of molecules. Types of electrons in organic molecules involving in transitions: 1. σ electrons. 2. П electrons. 3. Non bonding electrons. According to Molecular orbital theory, the interaction of atomic orbitals leads to the formation of bonding and anti bonding molecular orbitals. The relative energies of bonding, anti bonding and non bonding molecular orbitals are given in the following diagram. Bonding and antibonding orbitals. Molecules absorb radiation from UV Visible region and undergo various transitions. During this transition, an electron from one of the filled σ, П or non bonding orbitals get excited to vacant σ* or П* orbitals. Corresponding to possible excitations, there are various transitions are possible as follows. These transitions are classified into two types as follows: 1. Allowed transition: 2. Forbidden transition: The order of transition is 3

4 Out of the above possible transitions, the last three ones account for the absorption in nm region of electromagnetic radiation and first three transitions requires much higher energy, thus the molecules with n or П electrons give rise to characteristic spectra in the region nm of electromagnetic region. Chromophores: The structural units of the compound having n or П electrons, absorbs selective wavelength of UV Visible radiation are called chromophores. Example: - N=N-, C=C, C=O, etc. Auxochromes: The polar groups with lone pair of electrons support the intensity of chromophores are called auxochromes. Example:.... -O H, - O R, etc..... Absorption and intensity shifts. Bathochromic shift: It is also called red shift. The substitution of a selective group in a molecule makes the absorption to longer wavelength is called bathochromic shift. Example: Alkyl substitution on olefins. Hypsochromic shift: It is also called blue shift. The substitution of a selective group in a molecule make the absorption to shorter wavelength is called hypsochromic shift. Example: Chlorine substitution on olefins. Hyperchromic effect: The substitution of a selective group in a molecule causes increase in the intensity of absorption maximum of the molecule, and then the effect is called hyperchromic effect. Example: Methyl substitution on benzene. 4

5 Hypochromic effect: The substitution of a selective group in a molecule causes decrease in the intensity of absorption maximum of the molecule, and then the effect is called hypochromic effect. Example: Chlorine substitution on benzene. UV Visible Spectrophotometer: Instrumentation: Components: Block diagram for a UV Visble spectrophotometer. Radiation source: Hydrogen or deuterium lamps are used. It provides stable, continuous and sufficient intensity. Filter: It is also called monochromator. It permits the radiation of required wavelength only. Cell: It is a transparent and uniformly constructed container which contains either sample solution or reference solvent. Detectors: It converts the absorbed radiation into current. There are three types of detectors, viz., Barrier layer cell, photo multiplier tube and photo cell. Recorder: It converts the signal reaches to itself into spectrum of a molecule. Working: The radiation from the source is passed through the monochromator where it splitted into two equal beams, one half is passed into the sample cell and another half is passed into the reference cell containing solvent. The detector will measure the comparison of intensities of beam of light. If the sample absorbs light then the intensity of sample beam is less than the intensity of reference beam. It will be recorded as a signal in recorder. The instruments gives output graph (absorption spectrum) of a plot of the wavelength verses absorbance (A) of the light at each wavelength, where A = log (I 0 /I). 5

6 UV Visble spectra : (a) benzene in ethanol (b) naphthalene in methanol. Applications of UV spectroscopy: 1. It is used to determine the structure of vitamins, detecting steric hindrance, study rates of reactions and determine the dissociation constants of acids and bases from the change of absorption spectra with ph. 2. It is used to determine the dissociation energy of a molecule accurately from the wavelength. 3. It provides the information regarding moment of inertia, vibrational frequency and interatomic distances of diatomic molecules. 4. It is used to identify the cis and trans isomers of a compound from absorption spectra. 5. It is used to know the purity of a compound. 6. It is used to determine the structure of organic compounds. For example, isatin can be assigned following two possible structures: However, the corresponding structures of two possible methyl ethers are known to us. On comparison of the spectra of isatin with that of two methyl isomers (III) and (IV), the spectrum of isatin is similar to that of N-methyl ether (III). Hence isatin is assigned the structure (I). 7. It is used in quantitative analysis to determine the concentration of unknown sample by using Beer Lambert s equation, A = E c l. 6

7 IR spectroscopy: The spectra of a molecule arised in IR region (12500 cm 1 50 cm 1 ) due to the absorption of energy and transition occurs between different vibrational levels. Hence it is called vibration spectroscopy. IR region (12500 Cm 1 50 cm 1 ) Near IR IR Far IR cm cm cm cm cm 1 50 cm 1 All types of molecules cannot interact with IR radiation. Only those molecules which exhibit change in dipole moment during a vibration can exhibit IR spectra. Evidently, the homo-nuclear diatomic molecules like H 2, O 2, N 2, Cl 2, etc do not show change in dipole moment during vibration. Consequently, these do not exhibit IR spectra. The hetero- nuclear diatomic / polyatomic molecules like HCl, BeCl 2, NH 3, CH 4, CO 2, C 6 H 6, etc shows change in dipole moment and thus they exhibit IR spectra. The IR spectral region at 1400 cm cm 1 gives rich, intense and clear absorption bands for all functional groups in the organic compounds. This region is called finger print region. It is used to identify the functional group present in the organic compound, Identify the molecule and find out the characteristics of the molecule. The IR spectral region at 4000 cm cm 1 gives intense absorption bands associated with bending and stretching vibrations of particular functional group in organic compounds. This region is called group frequency region. It is used to identify the types of functional groups present in organic molecules. The molecules have certain number of vibrational modes. It can be calculated using the following formulae. (a) For a linear molecule, No of fundamental vibrational mode = 3n 5 (b) For a non linear molecule, No of fundamental vibrational mode = 3n 6 where n = number of atoms in a molecule. Molecule HCl BeCl 2 NH 3 CH 4 CO 2 C 6 H 6 FVM

8 Stretching and bending vibrations in water molecule: Water molecule has non linear structure. It has three fundamental vibrational modes which are corresponding to the frequencies 3652 cm 1 (Symmetric stretching vibration), 3756 cm 1 (Asymmetric stretching vibration) and 1596 cm 1 (Bending vibration) respectively. Vibration Stretching vibration Bending vibration O H H Symmetrical stretching Asymmetrical stretching vibration vibration 1596 cm 1 IR active O O H H H H 3652 cm cm 1 IR active IR active Generally stretching frequency is greater than bending frequency, because more energy is required to stretch the bond than to bend. All the above three vibrations are IR active and giving IR spectra at various frequencies. Hence IR active molecule undergoes change in dipole moments. Stretching and bending vibrations in water molecule: Carbon dioxide molecule has linear structure. It has four fundamental vibrational modes which are corresponding to the frequencies 1340 cm 1 (Symmetric stretching vibration), 2350 cm 1 (Asymmetric stretching vibration) and twice 666 cm 1 (In plane bending vibration and Out of plane bending vibration) respectively. 8

9 Vibration Stretching vibration Bending vibration Symmetrical Asymmetrical In plane bending Out of plane bending stretching vibration stretching vibration vibration vibration O C O O C O O C O O C O 1340 cm cm cm cm 1 IR inactive IR active IR active IR active In symmetrical stretching, both bonds are shortened or elongated to the same extent. Hence there is no change in dipole moment. So it is IR inactive. In asymmetrical stretching, one of the bonds is shortened and the other is elongated. Hence there is change in bond length and dipole moment. So it is IR active. In bending, both in-plane and out of plane bending involves variation of bond angle. Hence there is change in bond angle and dipole moment. So it is IR active. Even we have three active vibrations at 2350 cm 1, 666 cm 1 and 666 cm 1 respectively, we get two absorption band only, One at 2350 cm 1 and another one at 666 cm 1. Instrumentation: Radiation source Sample cell Mirror Filter Detector Amplifier Reference cell Recorder Wedge Motor Block diagram of IR spectrophotometer. 9

10 Components: Radiation source: The Nernst glower (Oxides of Zr, Y and Er) is heated to 1500 o C to give IR radiation, which is used as radiation source. Optical prism: It is also called mirror, which is used to reflect the radiation on filter. Filter: It is also called monochromator, which sent the individual frequencies to the detector. Amplifier: It amplifies the current received from the detector. Motor: It drives the wedge. Recorder: It draws the IR spectrum, based on the movement of wedge. Working: The IR radiation from radiation source is splitted into two equal half beams; one half is passed into the sample cell and another half is passed into the reference cell containing solvent respectively. Then these beams are fall on the mirror and reflected to the monochromator, where the selective radiation is sent to the detector. The radiation received by the detector is converted into current. It is amplified and coupled to the motor which drives a wedge. Based on the movement of the wedge the recorder draws the absorption bands on the chart. Finally, we get a spectrum as a graph of Transmittance verses wave number from the IR spectrophotometer. Applications: 1. It is used to identify the presence of functional groups in organic compounds. For example, IR spectra of both benzaldehyde and acetophenone shows absorption peak at 1700 cm 1. This indicates that the presence of keto group (C=O) in both the compounds. 2. It is used to detect the presence of impurities in organic compounds, by comparing the IR spectra of the pure (shows actual absorption bands) and impure (shows extra absorption bands) compounds. 3. It is used to distinguish inter and intra molecular hydrogen bonding in organic compounds. 4. It is used to study the molecular symmetry, dipole moment, structure, bond angle and bond length, etc. of various organic and inorganic compounds. 5. It is used to distinguish positional isomers of organic compounds. 6. It is used in rapid quantitative analysis of mixture of compounds. 7. It is used to study the kinetics of a reaction. 10

11 Colorimetry: It is the technique deals with the determination of concentration of a substance by absorption of visible region ( nm) of the spectrum. A device used for measuring absorption of radiant energy by the sample is called colorimeter. Principle: It is very useful for coloured solutions. First the intensity of the colour is found out using photoelectric colorimeter and then the concentration is obtained using Beer Lambert s law. If the sample is colourless then the suitable complexing agents are added to get colour which absorbs the light. Example: In estimation of Fe 3+, the ammonium thiocyanate (NH 4 SCN) is added as complexing agent. Instrumentation: Radiation source Filter Slits Cell Detector Meter Components: Block diagram of Colorimeter. Radiation source: The tungsten (W) filament bulb is used as radiation source which gives light in the visible region. Filter: It allows the light of required wavelength only. Slit: There are two types of slits. (a) Entrance slit: It provides narrow source. (b) Exit slit: It selects a narrow band. Cell: It is the compartment which contains the sample solution. Detector: It is also called photo cells. It measures the radiant energy transmitted through the sample. Meter: It measures the absorbance. Working: In colorimeter, a narrow beam of light from the radiation source is passed through the sample cell and the radiant energy transmitted through the sample is converted into current in detector. The current produced in detector is proportional to the amount of light transmitted the sample. The intensity of colour decides the transmittance. 11

12 i.e. Current Light transmitted 1 / concentration Finally the transmitted light is sent to the meter, where the absorbance of the sample is measured. A graph of calibration curve is drawn between concentration verses absorbance. It gives a straight line satisfying Beer Lambert s law.

The colorimeter is set at zero absorbance (100 % transmittance) using the solvent. 12

13 Step: 4. In colorimeter, a narrow beam of light from the radiation source is passed through the series of standard solutions and the radiant energy transmitted through the standard solutions is converted into current in detector. The current produced in detector is proportional to the amount of light transmitted the sample. The intensity of colour decides the transmittance. i.e. Current Light transmitted 1 / concentration Fe 3+ + KCNS [Fe(SCN) 6 ] K + Finally the transmitted light is sent to the meter, where the absorbance of the standard solutions is measured. Finally a graph of calibration curve is drawn between concentration verses absorbance. It gives a straight line satisfying Beer Lambert s law. After finding out the absorbance of test solution experimentally, the concentration will be determined from the graph.

Detector: It measures the intensity of radiation falling on it and it is converted into current. 14

15 Amplifier & Recorder: The current coming out from the detector is weak, so it is amplified and recorded. Working: The sample is mixed with air and fuel gas in the mixing chamber and this mixture is passed into the burner. The radiation emitted from the flame is passed successively into the lens, filter, detector and finally into the recorder. The above experiment is carried out using a series of standard solutions and the readings noted for each trial.
