Students are constantly looking for the most important information to know when studying organic chemistry. This is especially important when it comes to those pesky IR values. There are so many to know!<\/p>\n
Question: Which IR values do I need to know?<\/p>\n
Answer: The short answer- all of them. However, when studying these, it is helpful to start with the most important ones. Memorize these first, then learn the other ones.<\/p>\n
For IR (Infrared Spectroscopy):<\/p>\n
1) Very strong<\/strong> peak around 1700<\/strong> = carbonyl<\/strong> group<\/p>\n 2) Broad<\/strong> peak above 3000<\/strong> = OH<\/strong> group in carboxylic<\/strong> acids<\/strong>, but be careful this could also just be a regular OH<\/strong> group in any alcohol<\/strong><\/p>\n 3) Just below 3000<\/strong> = <\/strong>hydrogen on an alkane<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n 4) Just over<\/strong> 3000<\/strong> = hydrogen on an alkene<\/strong><\/p>\n 5) Sharp <\/strong>peak <\/strong>at <\/strong>around 3300 = <\/strong>hydrogen on an alkyne<\/strong><\/p>\n For more help learning Infrared Spectroscopy and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy values\u00a0check out the StudyOrgo.com <\/a><\/strong>Infrared Spectroscopy and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy\u00a0<\/a>Study Chart.\u00a0To learn more about our program click here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Students are constantly looking for the most important information to know when studying organic chemistry.
