    • 1720- 1740
  • C=O ketone
    • 1710-1730
  • C=O Amide

  • conjugation and absorption frequency
    • conjugation lowers the absorption
  • IR VS UV vis
    • IR tells us possible FG in CM-1
    • UV tells us the level of conjugation nm
  • Trends in λmax (UV vis )

    • the more conjugation the more stable, lower energy
    • Trend: the more conjugated, the greater the absorption length (nm)
    • less band gap space with conjugation
  • IHD
    • 2n+2
    • subtract # of H and divide by 2
    • double bond = 1
    • triple bond = 2
    • ring = 1
    • Oxygen has no effect
    • nitrogen increases H by 1
    • halogens decrease H by 1
  • ch 15. Base peak
    • peak that hits 100% abundance
  • M*+
    • heaviest mass charge (m/z)
    • overall mw
  • 1:1 peak
    • Br
    • why?
    • M*+ and M+2 peaks almost same height
  • 3:1 peak
    • Cl
    • M*+ and M+2 are significantly different in height
  • NMR ch 17
    • NMR shows signal when you have an odd number of protons
    • even numbers are NMR silent
  • Shielding

    • the more en density the harder it is to spin flip
    • the closer it is to an EN atom the easier to spin flip
    • less shielding there is the higher the ppm (higher chemical shift)
    • ppm = chemical shift
    • the further you get from an EN atom the less shielded
  • PPM in relation to shielding
    • the higher the PPM, the less shielding ( next to EN atom)
  • chemical shift

    • closer en the higher the ppm
    • closer to EN the more deshielded
  • ppm ~ 7
    -
  • ppm ~ 9-10
    -
