Spectroscopy Data Tables Infrared Tables (short summary of common absorption frequencies) The values given in the tables that follow are typical values. Specific bands may fall over a range of wavenumbers, cm -. Specific substituents may cause variations in absorption frequencies. Absorption intensities may be stronger or weaker than expected, often depending on dipole moments. Additional bands may confuse the interpretation. In very symmetrical compounds there may be fewer than the expected number of absorption bands (it is even possible that all bands of a functional group may disappear, i.e. a symmetrically substituted alkyne!). Infrared spectra are generally informative about what functional groups are present, but not always. The and 3 M s are often just as informative about functional groups, and sometimes even more so in this regard. Information obtained from one spectroscopic technique should be verified or expanded by consulting the other spectroscopic techniques.

When carbons are coupled to their hydrogens, carbons follow the + rule. Methyls = q, methylenes = t, methines = d, and carbons without hydrogen appear as singlets = s. DEPT provides the same information. arbon chemical shifts are spread out over a larger range than proton chemical shifts (they are more dispersed), so it is less likely that two different carbon shifts will fall on top of one another. The relative positions of various types of proton and carbon shifts have many parallel trends (shielded protons tend to be on shielded carbons, etc.) Simple alkane carbons d 2 3 0-30 ppm d 20-40 ppm d 30-50 ppm d 30-60 ppm (q) (t) (d) (s) sp 3 carbon next to oxygen d 3 2 50-60 ppm d 55-80 ppm d 60-80 ppm (q) (t) (d) d 70-90 ppm (s) sp 3 carbon next to nitrogen d 2 3 0-50 ppm d 35-55 ppm d 50-70 ppm (q) (t) (d) d 50-70 ppm (s) sp 3 2 carbon next to bromine or chlorine ( = l, Br) d 25-50 ppm d 60-80 ppm (t) (d) d 60-80 ppm (s) sp carbon (alkynes) sp carbon (nitriles) δ 70-90 ppm δ 0-25 ppm sp 2 carbon (alkenes and aromatics) δ 00-40 ppm δ 40-60 + ppm simple sp 2 carbon resonance donation moves δ lower, resonance withdrawal moves δ higher sp 2 carbon attached to an electronegative atom ( = oxygen, nitrogen, halogen) or β carbon conjugated with a carbonyl group δ 60-80 ppm carboxyl carbons (acids, esters, amides) (s) δ 80-20 ppm aldehyde carbons, lower values when conjugated (d) δ 80-220 ppm ketone carbons, lower values when conjugated (s) Z:\files\classes\spectroscopy\typical spectra charts.d

Spectroscopy Data Tables 8 ommon fragmentation patterns in mass spectroscopy. Branch next to a π bond radical cation π bond of an alkene or an aromatic Pi electrons partially fill in loss of electrons at carbocation site via resonance. This is common fragmentation for alkenes and aromatics haracteristic carboncation stability also applies. 3 o > 2 o > o > 3 2. Branch next to an atom with a lone pair of electrons radical cation lone pair electrons partially fill in loss of electrons at carbocation site via resonance. This is a common fragmentation for any atom that has a lone pair of electrons (oxygen = alcohol, ether, ester; nitrogen = amine, amide, sulfur = thiol or sulfide, etc.). Alcohols often lose water (M-8) and primary amines can lose ammonia (M-7). 3. Branch next to a carbonyl (=) bond and possible subsequent loss of carbon monoxide, 2 radical cation or 2 can be lost from aldehydes, ketones, acids, esters, amides...etc. 2 An oxygen lone pair partially fill in the loss of electrons at the carbocation site via resonance. This is a common fragmentation pattern for any carbonyl compound and can occur from either side, though some are more common than others. 2 loss of 2 subsequent loss of is possible after α fragmentation so not only can you see loss of an α branch you can see the mass of an α branch. 4. McLafferty earrangement γ α β radical cation cation This is another common fragmentation pattern for carbonyl compounds (and other pi systems as well: alkenes, aromatics, alkynes, nitriles, etc.). If the pi bond has at least 3 additional nonhydrogen atoms attached and a hydrogen on the "gama" atom, the branch can curve around to a comfortable 6 atom arrangement and the pi bond can pick up a hydrogen atom and cut off a fragment between the α and β positions. The positive charge can be seen on either fragment and usually the fragments have an even mass (unless there is an odd number of nitrogen atoms). α still a radical γ β lost neutral fragment Positive charge can beon either fragment, which typically have an even mass. α = alpha position β = beta position γ = gama position Knowing these few fragmentation patterns will allow you to make many useful predictions and interpretations. Loss of small molecules, via elimination is common: 2 = 8, 2 S = 34, 3 = 32, 2 5 = 46, 3 = 7, 3 2 = 62, F = 20, l = 36/38, Br = 80/82, etc. Z:\files\classes\spectroscopy\typical spectra charts.d
