Infrared spectroscopy
The IR Spectroscopic Process
◦ As a covalent bond oscillates – due to the oscillation of the dipole of the
molecule – a varying electromagnetic field is produced
◦ The greater the dipole moment change through the vibration, the more
intense the EM field that is generated
The IR Spectroscopic Process
8. When a wave of infrared light encounters this oscillating EM field generated by the
oscillating dipole of the same frequency, the two waves couple, and IR light is absorbed
9. The coupled wave now vibrates with twice the amplitude

“coupled” wave
Types of Molecular Vibrations (called modes of vibration).
• Stretching
– change in bond length
– Symmetric / asymmetric
• bending
– change in bond angle
– symmetric scissoring
– asymmetric wagging
– rocking
– twisting/torsion
The IR Spectroscopic Process
5. There are two types of bond vibration:
• Stretch – Vibration or oscillation along the line of the bond
• Bend – Vibration or oscillation not along the line of the bond

Fewer and more experimental peaks than calculated
Fewer peaks
◦ Symmetry of the molecule (inactive)
◦ degenracy
◦ Energies of two or more vibrations are identical
◦ Or nearly identical
◦ Undetectable low absorption intensity
◦ Out of the instrumental detection range
More peaks
◦ Overtone
◦ Combination bands
Infrared radiation
λ = 2.5 to 17 μm
υ = 4000 to 600 cm-1
These frequencies match the frequencies of covalent bond stretching
and bending vibrations. Infrared spectroscopy can be used to find out
about covalent bonds in molecules.
IR is used to tell:
1. what type of bonds are present
2. some structural information
toluene
Some characteristic infrared absorption frequencies

◦ Carboxylic acid ~1710 cm-1
◦ Ester ~1730 - 1740 cm-1
◦ Amide ~1640-1680 cm-1
Conjugation shifts all carbonyls to lower frequencies.
