WHAT IS SPECTROSCOPY..?? : 

WHAT IS S PECTROSCOPY ..?? DEFINITION : Spectroscopy is the measurement and interpretation of electromagnetic radiation (EMR)which is absorbed (or) emitted (or) polarized (or) dispersed (or) scattered (or) refracted (or) reflected (or) transmitted when the molecules or atoms or ions of a sample move from one energy state to another state. 3

INFRARED SPECTROSCOPY: 

INFRARED SPECTROSCOPY IR spectroscopy : Infrared spectroscopy is the subset of spectroscopy that deals with the infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum. It covers a range of techniques, the most common being a form of absorption spectroscopy. Wavelength The wavelength range of infrared radiation lies between 14000–10 cm −1 (0.8–1000 μm) . The most useful I.R. region lies between 4000 - 670cm -1 . Regions Near infrared :- approximately 14000–4000 cm −1 (0.8–2.5μm) Mid infrared :- approximately 4000–400 cm −1 (2.5–30μm) Far infrared :- approximately 400–10 cm −1 (30–1000 μm) 5

THEORY AND PRINCIPLE : 

THEORY AND PRINCIPLE CORRECT WAVELENGTH OF RADIATION In any molecule, atoms or groups of atoms are connected by bonds ,which will be in a continuous motion & will exihibit some frequency.This frequency is called as natural frequency. A molecule absorbs radiation only when natural frequency = incident frequency . After absorbing the correct wavelength of radiation, the molecule vibrates and absorption of infrared radiation takes place and a peak is observed. 6

When the molecule absorbs ir radiation…????: 

When the molecule absorbs ir radiation…???? A molecule can absorb IR radiation when its absorption causes a change in its electric dipole. Molecule is said to have an electric dipole when there is a slight positive and negative charge. When the molecule having an electric dipole is kept in the electric field ,this field will exert forces on the electric charges in the molecules. 7

PowerPoint Presentation: 

When charged atoms vibrate, they absorb infrared radiation from radiation source. If rate of vibration at charged atoms in a molecule is fast, absorption of radiation is intense and thus IR spectrum will have intense absorption bands. If rate of vibration is slow, weak bands will appear in IR spectrum. 8

Modes of vibrations: 

Modes of vibrations 1. STRETCHING : Change in inter-atomic distance along bond axis. It is of two types: Symmetrical Asymmetrical Bonds increase or decrease One bond length increases in length symmetrically. and the other decreases. 9

Modes of vibrations: 

Modes of vibrations 2. BENDING : Change in angle between two bonds. There are four types of bend. Rocking Scissoring Bond angle is maintained, but Bond angle decreases. both bonds move within the plane . 10

Modes of vibrations: 

Modes of vibrations Wagging 11 B oth atoms move to one side of plane . Twisting One atom is above the plane and the other is below the plane

Heteroaromatic compounds: 

Heteroaromatic compounds Hetero aromatic compounds such as Furan,Thiophene etc show C-H stertching bands in the region of 3077-3000 cm -1. Compounds containing N-H group shows,N-H Stretching absorption in the region 3500-3220cm -1 . In this region of absorption,the exact position depends upon the degree of hydrogen bonding and hence upon the physical state of the sample or the polarity of the solvent. 55

Hetero aromatic compounds: 

Hetero aromatic compounds Pyrrole and Indole in dilute solution in non-polar solvents show a sharp band near 3495cm -1 . Ring stretching vibration occur in general region between 1600-1300cm -1 . The absorption involves stertching and contraction of all the bonds in the ring and interaction between these stretching modes. 56

applications in organic compounds Determination of molecular structure: From an examination of positions of absorption bands in the spectrum, it is easy to establish the nature of groups present in molecule. Studying the progress of reactions Detection of impurities Isomerism in organic chemistry 57

Applications of Infrared Spectroscopy to Quantitative Analysis: 

Applications of Infrared Spectroscopy to Quantitative Analysis Used to determine the concentration of one of the functional groups of the compound to be estimated. E.g.: Mixture of Hexane and Hexanol. Concentration can be known by using Beer-lamberts law. Two methods are used to determine absorptivity They are : 1.Cell-in cell-out method 2.Baseline method 58

Miscellaneous examples:: 

Miscellaneous examples: A) Determination of purity : If impurity is present in a compound it reduces sharpness of individual bands causes appearance of extra bands and a general blurring of spectra. B) Shape of symmetry of a molecule C) Measurement of paints and varnishes D) Examination of old paintings E) In industry : To determine the impurities of raw material 59
