Introduction
This book was originally written to teach the organic
chemist how to identify organic compounds trom the
synergistic information afforded by the combination of
mass (MS), infrared (IR), nuclear magnetic resonance
(NMR), and ultraviolet (UV) spectra. Essentially, the
molecule is perturbed by these energy probes and the
moleçule's responses are recorded as spectra.
Tn the present edition. the goal remains unchanged,
but the format has evolvcd to respond to the remark-
able evolution of instrumentation. NMR, without ques-
tion, has become the most sophisticated tool available
to the organic chemist, and it now requires four chapters
to do it justice. In comparison, ultraviolet spectrometry
has become relatively less useful for our purpose, and
we havc discarded it despite nostalgic ties.
We aim at a rather modest level of expertise in cach
area of spectrometry, recognizing lhat the organic
chemist wants to get on with the task of identifying the
compound wilhout first mastering arcanc areas of elec-
tronic engineering and quantum mechanics. But the al-
ternative black-box approach is not acceptable either.
We avoid these extremes with a pictorial, nonmathe-
matical, vector-diagram approach to theory and instru-
mentation. Since NMR spectra can be interpreted in ex-
quisite detail with some mastery of theory, we present
theory in corresponding detail —but still descriptive.
Since an understanding of stereochemistry is essential
to the concept of “chemical-shift equivalence,” we
briefly revicw the relevant material.
Even this modest level of expertise will permit so-
Intion of a gratifying number of identification problems
with no history and no other chemical or physical data.
Of course, in practice other information is usually avail-
able: the sample source, details of isolation, a synthesis
sequence, or information on analogous material. Often,
complex molecules can be identified because partial
structures are known, and specific questions can be for-
mulated; the process is more confirmation than identi-
fication. In practice, however, difficulties arise in phys-
ical handling of minute amounts of compound: trapping,
clution from adsorbents, solvent removal, prevention of
contamination, and decomposition of unstable com-
pounds. Water, air, stopcock greases, solvent impurities,
and plasticizers have frustrated many investigations.
For pedagogical reasons, we deal only with pure or-
ganic compounds. “Pure” in this context is a relative
term, and all we can say is the purer, the better. A good
criterion of purity for a sufficiently volatile compound
(no nonvolatile impurities present) is gas chromato-
graphic homogeneity on both polar and nonpolar sub-
strates in capillary columns. Various forms of liquid-
phase chromatography (adsorption and liquid-liquid
columns. thin layer) are applicable to less volatile com-
pounds. The spectra presented in this book were ob-
tained on purified samples.
In many cases, identification can be made on a frac-
tion of a milligram, or even on several micrograms, of
sample. Identification on the milligram scale is routine.
OI course, not all molecules yield so casily. Chemical
manipulations may be necessary but the information ob-
tained from the spectra wil] permit intelligent selection
of chemical treatment, and the energy probe method-
ology can bc applied to the resulting products.
When we proposcd in the first edition of this book
that the synergistic combination of spectra sufficed to
identify organic compounds, we did so in 177 pages after
exploring the possibilities in a series of lectures at San Jose
State University CA, in 1962. The methodology thus elab-
orated was being rapidly adopted by practicing organic
chemists, and we predicted that “in onc form or another,
such material would soon become part of the training of
every organic chemist.” Now every first-year organic text-
book provides an introduction to spectrometry.

Mass Spectrometry
2.1 Introduction
In the commonly used clectron-impact (EI) mode, a
mass spectrometer bombards molecules in the vapor
phase with a high-energy clectron beam and records the
result of electron impact as a spectrum of positive ions
separated on the basis of mass/charge (1/7); most of
these ions are singly charged.* The mass spectrum of
O
benzamide cr nm, is presented as a com-
puter-plot bar graph of abundâncc (vertical peak inten-
sity) versus 7n/z (Fig. 2.1). The positive ion peak at m/z
121 represents the intact molecule (M) less one electron
removed by the impacting beam and is designated the
molecular ion, M**, The molecular ion in turn produces
a series of fragment ions as shown for benzamide:

formulas by measuring isotope peak intensities (see Sec-
tion 2.4), adjacent peaks must be cleanly separated. Ar-
bitrarily, the valley between two such peaks should not
be more than 10% of the height of thc larger peak. This
degree of resolution is termed “unit” resolution and can
be obtained up to a mass of approximately 2000 Da on
readily available “unit-resolution” instruments.

fore, ions of only a single m/z value will traverse the
entire length of the filter at a given set of conditions.
All other ions will have unstable oscillations and will
strike the poles and be lost. Mass scanning is carried out
by varying each of the rf and de frequencies while keep-
ing their ratios constant.

2.2.4 Quadrupole Ion Storage
(Fon Trap) (B.2)
Essentially, the ion storage trap is a spherical configu-
ration of the linear quadrupole mass filter. The opera-
tions, however, differ in that the linear filter passes the
sorted ions directly through to the detector, whereas the
ion trap retains the unsorted ions temporarily within the
trap. They are then released to the detector sequentially
by scanning the electric field. These instruments are
compact (benchtop), relatively inexpensive, convenient
to use, and very sensitive. They also provide an inex-
pensive method to carry out GC/MS/MS experiments
(Section 2.2.7) (GC is gas chromatography).
In general, the quadrupole instruments do not
achieve the mass range and the high resolution of sector
instruments. However, the mass range and resolution
are adequate for unit-resolution mass spectrometry, and
the rapid scan and sensitivity make them especially suit-
able for use with capillary gas chromatography (Fig.
24b).
2.2.5 Time of Flight (C)
In the time-of-flight (TOF) mass spectrometers, all sin-
gly charged particles subjected to a potential difference
V attain the same translational energy in electron volts
(eV). Thus lighter particles have the shorter TOF over
a given distance. The accelerated particles are passed
into a field-free region where they arc separated in time
by their m/z values and collected. Since arrival times
between successive ions can be less than 107” s, fast elec-
tronics are necessary for adeguate resolution. Time-of-
flight devices are used with sophisticated ionizing meth-

Resolution is modest; sensitivity is high (Section
2.5.1.3).
2.2.6 FT-ICR (Fourier Transform-Ion
Cyelotron Resonance) (D) (Also termed FT-MS)
Tons generated by an electron beam from a heated fil-
ament arc passed into a cubic cell where they are held
by an electric trapping potential and à constant mag-
netic field. Fach ion assumes a cycloidal orbit at its own
characteristic frequency, which depends on m/z; the cell
is maintained under high vacuum. Originally, these fre-
quencics were scanned by varying the electric field until
each cycloidal frequency was, in turn, in resonance with
an applied constant radivlreguency. At resonance, the
motion of the ions ol the same frequency is coherent
and a signal can be detected.
The newer instruments (Figure 2,4c) utilize a ra-
diofrequency pulse in place of the sean. The pulse brings
all of the cycloidal frequencies into resonance simulta-
neously to yield a signal as an interferogram (a time-
domain spectrum). This is converted by Fourier Trans-
form to a [requeney-domain spectrum, which then
vields the conventional »/z spectrum. Pulscd Fourier
transform spectrometry applied to nuclear magnetic res-
onance speetrometry is explained in Chapters 4 and 5.
Since the resonanec can be measured with high ac-
curacy, precise m/z values can be obtained, These values
can yield unambiguous molecular formulas — a most de-
sirablc goal: unfortunately, the instruments are still very
expensive.

(“parent ions”) are separated in the first mass spectrom-
eter and passed, one at a time, into the collision cham-
ber where “daughter ions” are formed by collision with
an introduced gas (helium): these ions arc passed into
the second mass spectrometer, where a daughter-ion
spectrum is produced. Thus. we have a mass spectrum
of cach selected ion of the first spectrum — hence, MS/
MS. Ilybrid instruments are available with different
types of spectrometers for the first and third stages.
Typically lhese instruments are uscd for large mol-
ecules and especially for the resolution ot mixtures. In
a recent development, the ion trap is used to store a
selected ion from electron impact (El) or chemical ion-
ization (CI) by cjection of all of the other ions. This
selected parent ion can then undergo collísion in the ion
trap with an introduced gas (helium) and the daughter
ions are ejected to the detector to furnish a daughter-
ion spectrum. The collisions with the introduced gas are
induced by subjecting the parent ions to a high-energy
wavelorm. Thus MS/MS spectrometry is achieved
within a single ion trap, rather than in three separate
compartments, at an appreciable saving in cost.
2.3 The Mass Spectrum
Mass spectra (ET) are routinely obtained at an clectron
beam energy of 70 cV. The simplest event that occurs
is the removal ot a single electron from the molecule in
the gas phase by an clectron of the electron beam to
form the molecular ion, which is a radical cation (M"').
For example, methano! forms a molecular ion in which
the single dot represents the remaining odd electron:
CHOH + e —> CH,OH* + 2e7
enfz 32
When the charge can be localized on one particular
atom, the charge is shown on that atom:
cH,ÓH
compound. With unit resolution, this weight is the mo-
lecular weight to the nearest whole number.
A mass spectrum is a presentation of lhe masses of
the positively charged lragments (including the molec-
ular ion) versus their relative concentrations. The most
intensc pcak in the spectrum, called the base peak, is
assigned a value of 100%, and the intensities (height X
sensilivity factor) of the other peaks, including the mo-
Jecular ion peak, are reported as percentages of the basc
peak. Of course, the molecular ion peak may sometimes
be the base peak. In Figure 2.1, the molecular ion peak
is m/z 121, and the base peak is n7/z 77.
A tabular or graphic presentation of a spectrum
may be used, A graph has the advantage of presenting
patterns that, with experience, can be quickly recog-
nized. However, a graph must be drawn so that Lhere is
no difficulty in distinguishing mass units. Mistaking a
peak al, say. 1m/z 79 for m/z 80 can result in lotal con-
fusion, The molecular ion peak is usually the peak of
highest mass number except for the isotopc pcaks.
24 Determination ofa
Molecular Formula
2.4.1 Unit-Mass Molecular Ion
and Isotope Peaks
So far, we have discussed the mass spectrum in terms of
unit resolutions: The unit mass of the molecular ion of
C;H;NO (Fig. 2.1) is m/z 121 — that is, the sum of the
unit masses of the most abundant isotopes:
7xC= a
7x!H=7
1x UN =I4
1x0 =16
Tn addition, molecular species exist that contain the
less abundant isotopes, and these give use to the “iso-
24 Determination of a Molecular Formula 7
tope peaks” at M + 1,M + 2, ete. Im Figure 2.1, the
M + 1 peak is approximately 8% of the intensity of the
molecular ion peak, which for this purpose, is assigned
an intensity of 100%. Contributing to the M + 1 peak
are the isotopes, C, 2H, EN, and "O. Table 2.) gives
the abundances of these isotopes relative to thosc of the
most abundant isotopes. The only contributor to the
M +2 peak of C,H,NO is "O, whose relative abun-
dance is very low; thus the M + 2 peak is undetected.
Ifonly C, H.N, O, F, P, and I are present, ihc approx-
imate expected percentage (M + 1) and percentage
(M 4 2) intensities can be calculated by use of the fol-
lowing formulas:
%(M + 1) = 1.1 X number of € atoms
+ 0.36 X number of N atoms
: 2
%(M 42) = (LI x memo e vt € atoms)
+ 0.20 x number of O atoms
Tí these isotope pcaks are intense enough to be
measured accurately, the above calculations may be
useful in determining the molecular formula.*
*"There are limitations beyond the dilliculty of measuring small peaks:
Lhe "CR2C ratio difters with the source of the compound—synthetic
compared with a natural source. A natural product from different
organisms or regions may show differences. Furthermore, isolope
peaks may be more intense than (he caleulated valus because ofion-
molecule interactions that vary with the sample concentration or with
the class of compound involved. For example:

tope peaks” at M + 1,M + 2, ete. Im Figure 2.1, the
M + 1 peak is approximately 8% of the intensity of the
molecular ion peak, which for this purpose, is assigned
an intensity of 100%. Contributing to the M + 1 peak
are the isotopes, C, 2H, EN, and "O. Table 2.) gives
the abundances of these isotopes relative to thosc of the
most abundant isotopes. The only contributor to the
M +2 peak of C,H,NO is "O, whose relative abun-
dance is very low; thus the M + 2 peak is undetected.
Ifonly C, H.N, O, F, P, and I are present, ihc approx-
imate expected percentage (M + 1) and percentage
(M 4 2) intensities can be calculated by use of the fol-
lowing formulas:
%(M + 1) = 1.1 X number of € atoms
+ 0.36 X number of N atoms
: 2
%(M 42) = (LI x memo e vt € atoms)
+ 0.20 x number of O atoms
Tí these isotope pcaks are intense enough to be
measured accurately, the above calculations may be
useful in determining the molecular formula.*
*"There are limitations beyond the dilliculty of measuring small peaks:
Lhe "CR2C ratio difters with the source of the compound—synthetic
compared with a natural source. A natural product from different
organisms or regions may show differences. Furthermore, isolope
peaks may be more intense than (he caleulated valus because ofion-
molecule interactions that vary with the sample concentration or with
the class of compound involved. For example:

The energy content of the various secondary ions
(ftom, respectively, CIL, isobutane, and ammonia) de-
ercases in this order:
CH; > CH! = NH,
Thus by choice of “reagent” gas, we can control the
tendency of the Cl-produced M | Hº ion to fragment.
For example, when methane is the carricr gas, dioctyl
phíhalate shows itsM + H' peak (m/z 391) as the base
peak; more importantly, the [ragment peaks (e.g., mm/z
113 and 149) are 30-60% of the intensity of the base
peak. When isobutane is used, the M + H' peak is large
and the fragment peaks are only roughly 5% as intense
as the M + H' peak.
In many laboratories, the EL spectrum and the CI
spectrum (with methane or isobutane) arc obtained rou-
tinely since they are complementary. The CI spectrum
will frequently provide the [M + H]* peak when the Ei
spectrum shows only a weak or undetectable M*: peak.
The [M — H]' peak may also appcar in the CI spectrum
by hydríde abstraction. The CI fragmentation patterm is
usually difficult to predict or rationalize. Note that the
“nitrogen rule” (see Section 2) does not apply to the
iM + HJ or the [M — HN* peaks; neither does it apply
to the CI fragmentation ions.
One general statement may be made: If a molecule
MX (X is à functional group) is protonated by the re-
agent ion to give the quasimolecular ion MXH', frag-
mentation usually produces the neutral protonated
functional group XH and the Tragment ion M'.

Thus an alcohol, ROH, is protonated to give
ROH;*, which fragments with loss of a neutral molecule
of water to give an R* peak.*
2.5.1.2 Field Desorption (FD) Stable molecular ions
are obtained from a sample of low volatility, which is
placed on the anode ol a pair of electrodes, between
which there is an intense electric field. Desorption oc-
eurs, and molecular and quasimolecular ions are pro-
duced with insufficient internal energy for extensive
fragmentation. Usually the major peak represents the
IM + TJ ion.
Synthetic polymers with molecular weighis on the
order of 10,000 Da have been analyzed, but there is a
much lower molecular weight limit for polar biopoly-
mers; here the FAB procedure and others (see below)
are superior.
2.5.1.3 Fast Atom Bombardment (FAB) Polar mol-
ecules, such as peptides, with molecular weights up to
10,000 Da can be analyzed by a “soft” ionization tech-
nigue called fast atom bombardment (FAB, Tig. 2.5).
The bombarding beam consists of xenon (or argon) ai-
cms of high translational energy (X€). This beam is pro-
dueed by first ionizing xenon atoms with electrons to
give xenon radical catíons:

which are then passed through xenon. During this pas-
sage, the charged high-energy xenon obtains clectrons
trom the xenon atoms to become high-energy atoms
(Xe), and the Xe” ions are removed by an electric field.

The compound of interest is dissolved in a high-boiling
viscous solvent such as glycerol; a drop is placed on a
thin metal sheet, and the compound is ionized by the
high-encrgy beam of xenon atoms (Xe). Ionization by
translational energy minimizes the amount of vibra-
tional excitation. and this results in less destruction of
the ionized molecules. The polar solvent promotes ion-
ization and allows diffusion of fresh sample to the sur-
face. Thus ions are produced over a period of 20-30
min, in contrast to a few seconds for ions produced from
solid samples.
The molecular ion itself is usually not seen, but ad-
such as [M + HJ" arc prominent. Other ad-
s can be formed from salt impurities or upon
addition of salts such as NaCl or KCl, which give
IM + Na]: and [M + K]- additions. Glycerol adduct
peaks are prominent and troublesome in the spectrum.
Fragment ions are prominent and useful.
1.4 Electrospray Ionization (ESD Electrospray
ionization involves placing an ionizing voltage — several
kilovolts—across the nebulizer needle attached to the
outlet from a high-performance liquid chromatograph
(HPLC).
This technique is widely uscd on water-soluble bio-
molecules — proteins. peptides, and carbohydrates in
particular. The result is a spectrum whose major peaks
consist of the molecular ion with a different number of
charges attached. A molecular ion ol, for example,
about 10,000 Da with a charge (z) of 10 would behave
in a mass spectrometer as though its mass were about
1000 daltons. Tis mass, therefore, can be determined
with a spectrometer of modest resolution — and cost.
Electrospray ionizatiou is onc of several variations
of atmospheric pressure ionization (APT) as applied to
thc outlet of au HPLC unit attached to Lhe inlet of the
mass spectrometer. Thesc variations have in common
the [ormation of a very fine spray (nebulization) from
which the solvent can be quickly removed. The small
particles are then ionized by a corona discharge at at-
mospheric pressure and swept by the continuous low
of the particles and a small clectrical potential that
moves the positively charged particles through a small
orifice into the evacuated mass spectrometer.
2.5.1.5 Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption/lonization
(MALDI) In the MALDI procedure — used mainly
for large biomolecules — the sample in a matrix is dis-
persed on a surface, and is desorbed and ionized by the
energy of a laser beam. The matrix serves the same pur-
pose as it does in the FAB procedure (Section 2.5
“The MALDI procedure has been used recently in
several variations to determine the molecular weight of
large protein molccules — up to several hundred kDa.
The combination of a pulsed laser bcam and a time-of-
flight mass spectrometer (Section 2.2.5.) is particularly
effective.
Peptide sequencing is another application. Matrix
selection is critical and depends on the wavelength of
the laser beam and on the nature of the sample. Such
polar compounds as carboxylic acids (e.g, nicotinic
acid), urea, and glycerol have been used.
At the time of writing, ES1 and MALDI are the
preferred procedures for large biopolymers.
2.6 Useofthe Molecular Formula.
Index of H'ydrogen Deficiency
If organic chemists had to choose a single item ot infor-
mation above all others that are usually available from
spectra or from chemical manipulations, they would cer-
tainly choose lhe molecular formula,
In addition to the kinds and numbers of atoms. the
molecular formula gives the index of hydrogen defi-
cieney. The index of hydrogen deficiency is the number
of pairs of hydrogen atoms that must be removed from
the corresponding “saturated” formula to produce the
molecular formula of the compound cf interest. The in-
dex of hydrogen deficiency is also called the number of
“sites (or degrees) of unsaturation”: this description is
incomplete sincc hydrogen deficiency can result from
cyclic structures as well as from multiple bonds. The
index is Uus the sum of the number of rings. the number
of double bonds, and twice the number of triple bonds.
The index of hydrogen deficiency can be caleulated
for compounds containing carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen,
halogen, oxygen, and sulfur from the formula

Thus, the compound C)H;NO has an index of! 7 —

yis N.P, or any other trivalent atom
ôis C, Si, or any other tetravalent atom
The numerals I-IV designate the numbers of the
mono», di-, tri-, and tetravalent atoms, respectively.
For simple molecular formulas, we can arrive at the
index by comparison of the formula of interest with iho
molecular formula of the corresponding saturated com-
pound, Compare C;H, and C;H 4; the index is 4 for the
former and O for lhe latter.
The index for C,H;NO is 5, and a possible structure
Of course, other isomers (i.e,, compounds with the same
molecular formula) are possible, such as
HC=O0
NIL
Note that the benzene ring itself accounts for four “sites
of unsaturation”: three for the double bonds and once
for the ring.
Polar structures must be used for compounds con-
taining an atom in a higher valence state, such as sulfur
or phosphorus. Thus, if we treat sultur in dimethyl
sulfoxide (DMSO) formally as a divalent atom, the
calculated index, O, is compatible with the structure
cH,—8-—cH,. We must use only formulas with filled

valence shells; that is, the Lewis octet rule must be
obeyed.
Similarly, if we treat the nitrogen in nitromethane
as a trivalent atom, the index is 1, which is compatible
/
with CH, «Nº. TT we treat phosphorus in triphenyl-
o
phosphine oxide as trivalent, the index is 12, which fits
(CoH9;P*— O-. As an example. let us consider the mo-
lecular formula C,;H,N,0,BrS. The index of hydrogen
deficiency would be 13 —- $$ +3+1=10 anda con-
sistent structure would be
NO,
ON sen (O)
(Index of hydrogen deficiency = 4 per benzene ring and
1 per NO, group.)
The formula above for the index can be applied to
fragment ions as well as to the molecular ion. When it
is applied to even-electron (all electrons paired) ions,
the result is always an odd multiple of 0,5, As an ex-
ample, consider C,JT;O* with an index of 5,5, A reason-
able structure is
since 5; pairs of hydrogen atoms would be necessary to
obtain the corresponding saturated formula C,H,,O
(€,H.,,20). Odd-electron fragment ions will always
give integer values of the index.
Ierpenes often present a choice between a double
bond and a ring structure. This question can readily be
resolved on a microgram scale by catalylicaly hydro-
genating the compound and rerunning the mass spec-
trum. If no other easily reducible groups are present,
the increase in the mass of the molecular ion peak is a
measure of the number of donble bonds; and other “un-
saturated sites” must be rings.
Such simple considerations give the chemist very
ready information about structure. As another example,
a compeund containing a single oxygen atom might
quickly be determined to be an ether or a carbonyl com-
pound simply by counting “unsaturated sites.”
2.7 Fragmentation
As à first impression, fragmenting a molecule with a
huge excess of energy would seem a brute-force ap-
proach to molecular structure. The rationalizations used
to corrolate spectral patterns with structure, however,
can only be described as elegant. though sometimes ar-
bitrary. The insight of such pioncers as McLafferty,
Beynon. Stenhagen, Ryhage, and Meyerson led to a
number of rational mechanisms (or Lragmentation.
These were masterfully summarized and elaborated by
Biemann (1962), Budzikiewicz (1967), and others.
Generally. the tendency is to represent the molec-
ular ion with a delocalized charge. Djerassi's (1967) ap-
proach is to localize the positive charge on either a q
bond (except in conjugated systems), or on a hetero-
atom. Whether or not this concept is totally rigorous, it
is at the least a pedagogic rour de force. We shall use
such locally charged molecular ions in this book.
Structures A and B, [or example, represent the mo-
lecular ion of eyclohexadiene. Compound A is a delo-
calized structure with one less electron than the original
uncharged dienc; both the electron and the positive
Rearrangement peaks can be recognized by consid-
cring the mass (m:/z) number [or fragment ions and for
their corresponding molecular ions. A simple (no rear-
rangement) cleavage of an even-numbered molecular
ion gives an odd-numbered fragment ion and simple
cleavage of an odd-numbered molecular ion gives an
even-numbered fragment. Observation of a fragment
ion mass different by 1 unit from that expected for a
fragment resulting from simple cleavage (c.g., an even-
numbered fragment mass from an even-numbercd mo-
fecular ion mass) indicates rearrangement of hydrogen
has accompanied fragmentation. Rearrangement peaks
may bc recognized by considering the corollary to the
“nitrogen rule” (Section 2.5). Thus, an even-numbered
peak derived from an even-numbered molecular ion is
a result of two cleavages. which may involve a rear-
rangement.
“Random” rearrangements of hydrocarbons were
noted by the early mass spectrometrists in the petro-
leum industry. For example,

CcH;—C—CE, | —> GH!
CH,
These rcarrangements defy straightlorward explana-
tions.
2.9 Derivatives
If a compound has low volatility or if the parent mass
cannot be determined, it may be possible to prepare a
suitable derivative. The derivative selected should pro-
vide enhanced volatility, a predictable mode of cleav-
age, a simplified fragmentation pattern, or an increased
stability of the molecular ion.
Compounds containing several polar groups may
have very low volalility (c.g., sugars, peptides, and di-
basic carboxylic acids). Acctylation of hydroxyl and
amino groups and methylation of free acids are obvious
and effective choices to incrcase volatility and give char-
acteristic peaks, Perhaps less immediately obvious is the
use of trimethylsilyi derivatives of hydroxyl, amino,
sulfhydryl, and carboxylic acid groups. Trimethylsilyl
derivatives of sugars and of amino acids are volatile
enough to pass through GC columns. The molecular ion
peak of trimethylsilyl derivatives may not always be
present, but the M — 15 peak resulting from cleavage
of one of the Si—CII, bonds is often prominent.

2.10 Mass Spectra of Some
Chemical Classes
Mass speetra of a number of chemical classes are briefly
described in this section in terms of the most useful gen-
cralizations for identification. For more details, the rel-
erences cited (in particular, the thorough treatment by
Budzikiewicz, Djerassi, and Williams, 1967) should be
consulted. Databases arc available both from publishers
and as part of instrument capabilities. The references
are selective rather than comprehensive. A table of fre-
quently encountercd fragment ions is given in Appendix
B. A table of fragments (uncharged) that are commonly
eliminated and some structural inferences are presented
in Appendix C. More exhaustive listings of common
fragment ions have been compiled (see References).
The cleavage patterns described here in Section 2.10 are

2.10.1 Hydrocarbons
2.10.1,1 Saturated Hydrocarbons Most of the work
early in mass spectrometry was done on hydrocarbons
of interest to the petroleum industry. Rules 1-3, (Sec-
tion 2.7) apply quite generally; rearrangement peaks,
though common. are not usually intense (random re-
arrangements), and numerous reference spectra are
available,
The molecular ion peak of a straight-chain, satu-
rated hydrecarbon is always present, though of low in-
tensity for long-chain compounds. The fragmentation
pattern is characterized by clusters of peaks, and the
corresponding peaks of each cluster are 14 (CH,) mass
units apart. The largest peak in cach cluster represents
a C,H,,., fragment and thus occurs at m/z = 14n + 1;
this is accompanied by C,FL, and C,H,,., fragments.
The most abundant fragments arc at C, and C,, and the
tragment abundances deercasc in a smooth curve down
to [M — C;Hs]*: the [M — CH.]' peak is characteristi-
cally very weak or missing. Compounds containing
more than eight carbon atoms show fairly similar spcc-
tra; identification then depends on the molecular ion
peak.
Spectra ol branched saturated hydrocarbons are
grossly similar to those of straight-chain compounds, but
the smooth curve of decreasing intensitics is broken by
preferred [ragmentation at each branch. The smooth

curve for the r-alkane in Figure 2.69 is in contrast
to the discontinuity at C,, for the branched alkane
(Fig. 2.6b). “This discontinuity indicates that the
longest branch of 5-methylpentadecane has 1Ô carbon
atoms.
In Figure 2.6b, the peaks at m/z 169 and 85 repre-
sent cleavage on either side of the branch with charge
retention on the substituted carbon atom. Subtraction
of the molecular weight from the sum of these fragmenis
accounts tor the fragment — CH—CH,. Again, we ap-
preciate the absence of a C,, unit, which cannot form
by a síngle cleavage. Finally, the presence of a distinct
M — 15 peak aiso indicates a methyl branch. The frag-
ment resulting from clcavage at a branch tends to lose
a single hydrogen atom so that the resulting €, H,, peak
is prominent and sometimes more intense than the cor-
responding €,H,,,, peak.
A saturated ring in a hydrocarbon increases the rel-
ative intensity ofí the molecular ion peak and tavors
cleavage at the bond connecting the ring to the rest of
the molecule (rule 6, Section 2.7). Fragmentation of the
ring is usually characterized by loss of two carbon atoms
as GH, (28) and C,H, (29). This tendeney to lose even-
numbered fragments, such as C,H,, gives a spectrum
that contains a greater proportion of even-numbered
mass ions than the spectrum of an acyclic hydrocarbon.

As in branched hydrocarbons, C—C cleavage is ac-

2.10.1.2 Alkenes (Olefins) The molecular ion peak
of alkenes, especially polyalkenes, is usually distinct.
Location of the double bond in acyclic alkencs is diffi-
cult because ol its facile migration in thc fragments. In
cyclic (especially polyeyclic) alkenes, location of the
double bond is frequently evident as a result of a strong
tendency for allylic cleavage without much double-bond
migration (rule 5, Section 2.7). Conjugation with a car-
benyl group also fixes the position of the double bond.
As with saturated hydrocarbons, aeyclic alkcncs are
characterized by clusters of peaks at intervals of 14
units. In these clusters the C,H,,., and C,H,, pcaks are
more intense than the C,H,,.,, peaks.
The mass spectrum of B-myrcenc, a terpene, is
shown in Figure 2.7. Lhe peaks at my/z 41, 55, and
69 correspond to the formula C,H,,., with a = 3,
4, and 5, respectively. Formation of the m/z 41
peak must involve rearrangement. The peaks at m/z
67 and 69 are the tragments from cleavage of a bi-allylic
bond.

Acetals are a special class of ethers. Their mass
spectra are characterized by an extremely weak molec-
ular ion peak, by the prominent peaks at M — R and
M — OR, and a weak peak at M — H. Each of these
cleavages is mediated by an oxygen atom and thus fac-
ile. As usual, elimination of the largest group is pre-
ferred. As with aliphatic elhers, the first-formed oxygen-
containing fragments can decompose further with
hydrogen migration and alkene elimination.

decompose further. Thus anisole, MW 108, gives ions of

2.10.4 Ketones
2.10.4.1 Aliphatic Ketones The molecular ion peak
of ketones is usually quite pronounced, Major fragmen-
tation peaks of aliphatic ketones resul from cleavage at
the C—C bonds adjacent to the oxygen atom, the
charge remaining with the resonance-stabilized acylium
ion. Thus, as with alcohols and cthers, cleavage is me-
diated by the oxygen atom.
This clcavage gives rise lo a peak at m/z 43 or 57 or
71... . The base peak very often results from loss of
the larger alkyl group.
When one of the alkyl chains attached to the
€=0 group is C, or longer, cleavage of the C—C
bond once removed («,8 bond) from the C=0 group
occurs wilh hydrogen migration to givc a major
peak (McLafterty rearrangement).

mary. besides the McLatferty rearrangement peak, the

2.10.7 Carboxylic Esters
2.10.7.1 Aliphatic Esters The molecular ion peak of
amethyl ester of a straighi-chain aliphatic acid is usually
distinct. Even waxes usually show a discernible molec-
ular ion peak. The molecular ion peak is weak in the
range m/z 130 to — 200, but becomes somewhat more
intense beyond this range. The most characteristic peak
results from the familiar McLafferty rearrangement and
cleavage one bond removed from the C—=O group.
Thus a methyl ester of an aliphatic acid unbranched at
the a carbon gives a strong peak at m/z 74, which, in
fact, is the base peak in straight-chain methyl esters
trom C, to Cy. The alcohol moiety and/or the « sub-
stituent can often be deduced by the location of the
peak resulting from this cleavage.

The ion R* is prominent in thc short-chain esters
but diminishes rapidly with increasing chain length
and is barely perceptible in methyl hexanoate. The ion
R—C=o0 gives an easily recognizable peak for esters.
In methy] esters it occurs at M — 31. It is the base peak
in methyl acetate and is still 4% of the base peak in the
o
Cy methyl ester. The ions [OR 7* and forr arc usu-
ally of líttle importance. The latter is discernible when
= CH, (see m/z 59 peak of Fig. 2.14).
First, consider esters in which the acid portion is the
predominant portion of the molecule. The tragmenta-
tion pattern for methyl esters of straight-chain acids can
be described in the same terms used for the pattern of
the free acid. Cleavage at each C—C bond gives an
alkyl ion (1/2 29.43.57, . . . ) and an oxygen-contain-
ing ion, C,Ho,. 10,* (59, 73, 87, . . .). Thus, there are
hydrocarbon clusters at intervals of 14 mass units; in
each cluster is a prominent peak at C,H,, 140,. The
pcak (m/z 87) formally represented by the ion
[CH,CH,;COOCH]* is always morc intense than its
homologs, but lhe reason is not immediately obvious.
However, it secms clear that the C,H,,. O, ions do not
at all arise from simple cleavage.
The spectrum of methy! octanoate is presented as
Figure 2.14. This spectrum illustrates one difficulty in
using the M + 1 peak to arrive at a molecular formula
(previously mentioned, Section 2.4.1). The measured
valuc tor the M+ 1 peak is 12%. The calculated
value is 10.0%. The measured value is high because
of an ion-molecule reaction because a relatively
large sample was uscd to see the weak molecular ion
peak.
Now let us consider esters in which the alcohol por-
tion is the predominant portion of the molecule. Esters
of fatty alcohols (except methyl esters) climinate a mol-
ecule of acid in the same manner that alcohois eliminate
waler. A scheme similar to that described earlier for
alcohols, involving a single hydrogen transfer to the al-
cohol oxygen of the ester, can bc written. An alternative
mechanism involves a hydride transfer to the carbonyl
oxygen (McLafferty rearrangement).

210.92 CyelicAmines In contrast to acyclic amines,
the molecular ion peaks of cyclic amines arc usually in-
tense unless there is substitution at the « position; for
example, the molecular ion peak ol pyrrolidine is
strong. Primary cleavage at the bonds next to the N
atom leads either (o loss of an a-hydrogen atom to give
astrongM — 1 peak or to opening of the ring; the latter
event is followed by elimination of ethylene to give
*-CH,NH=CIL (m/z 43, base peal), hence by loss of à
hydrogen atom to give CH;=N==CH, (m/z 42). N-
Methyl pyrrolidine also gives a C,H,N' (m/z 42) peak,
apparently by morc than one pathway.
Piperidine likewisc shows a strong molecular ion
and M — 1 (basc) peak. Ring opening followed by sev-
eral availabic sequences leads to characteristic peaks at
mz 70, 57, 56, 44, 43, 42, 30, 29, und 28. Substituents
are cleaved from the ring (rule 6, Section 2.7).
2.10.9.3 Aromatic Amines (Anilines) The molecular
ion peak (odd number) of an aromatic monoamine is
intense, Loss ol onc of the amino H atoms of aniline
gives a moderately intense M — 1 peak; loss of à neu-
tral molecule of HCN followed by loss of a hy-
drogen atom gives prominent peaks at m/z 66 and 65,
respectively.
Tt was noted above Lhal cleavage of alkyl aryl ethers
occurs with rearrangement involving cleavage of the
ArO—R bond; that is, cleavage was controlled by the
ring rather than by the oxygen atom. In the case of alkyl
aryl amines, cleavage of the C—€ bond next to the
nitrogen atom is dominant; that is, the heteroatom con-
trols cleavage.

Secondary and tertiary amides with an available hy-

from the MeLafferty rearrangement. When the N-alkyl
groups are C, or longer and the acyl moiety is shorter
than C,, another mode of cleavage predominates. This

cleavage of the carbonyl C—N bond with migration of

2.10.11 Aliphatic Nitriles
The molecular ion peaks of aliphatic nitriles (except
for acetonitrile and propionitrile) are weak or ab-
sent, but the M + 1 peak can usually be located
by its behavior on increasing inlet pressure or
decreasing repeller voltage (Section 2.5). A weak
but diagnostically useful M — 1 peak is formed by
loss ot an a hydrogen to form the stable ion:
RCH—C=N't — RCH=C==N-.
The base peak of straight-chain nitriles betwcen €,
and C, is mz 41. This peak is the ion resulting from
hydrogen rearrangement in a six-membered transition
state.

However, this peak lacks diagnostic valuc because of

Simple cleavage at each C—C bond (except the
one next to the N atom) gives a characteristic series of
homologous pcaks of even mass number down the en-
tire length of the chain (m/z 40, 54, 68, 82. . . .) result-
ing from the (CH,),C=Nº ions. Accompanying these
peaks are the usual peaks of the hydrocarbon pattern.
2.10.12 Nitro Compounds
2.10.12.1 Aliphatic Nitro Compounds The molecu-
lar jon peak (odd number) of an aliphatic mononitro
compound is weak or absent (except in the lower hom-
ologs). The main pcaks are attributable to the hydro-
carbon fragments up to M — NO». Presence of a nitro
group is indicated by an appreciable peak at m/z 30
(NO) and a smaller peak at mass 46 (NO, ').
2.10.12.22 Aromatic Nitro Compounds The molccu-
lar ion peak of aromatic nitro compounds (odd number
tor one N atom) is strong. Prominent peaks result from
elimination of an NO, radical (M — 46, the base peak
in nitrobenzene), and of a neutral NO molccule with
rearrangement to form the phenoxy cation (M — 30);
32 Chapicr? Mass Spectrometry
both are good diagnostic pcaks. Loss of HC==CH from
the M — 46 ion accounts for a strong peak at
M — 72: loss af CO from the M — 30 ion gives a peak
atM — 58. A diagnostic peak at m/z 30 results from the

2.10.13 Aliphatic Nitrites
The molecular ion peak (odd number) of aliphatic ni-
trites (one N present) is weak or absent. The peak at
m/z 30 (NO) is always large and is often the base peak.
There is a large peak at mz 60 (CH, ONO) in all
nitrites unbranched at the a carbon; this represents
cleavage of the C—€ bond next to the ONO group. An
a branch can be identilicd by a peak at »u/z 74, 88, or
102..... Absence of a large peak at m/z 46 permits
differentiation [rom nitro compounds. Hydrocarbon
peaks are prominent, and their distribution and inten-
sities describe the arrangement of the carbon chain.

2.10.15 Sulfur Compounds
“The contribution (4.4%, see Table 2.2 and Fig. 2.15) of
the “S isotope to the M +2 peak, and often to a
(fragment + 2) peak, affords ready recognition of sul-
fur-containing compounds. A homologous series of sul-
fur-containing fragments is four mass units higher than
the hydrocarbon fragment series. The number of sulfur
atoms can be determined from the size of the contri-
bution of the *S isotope to the M + 2 peak. The mass
of the sulfur atom(s) present is subtracted from the mo-
lecular weight. In diisopentyl disulfide, for example, lhe
molecular weight is 206, and the molecule contains two
sulfur atoms. The formula for the rest of the molecule
is therefore found under mass 142, that is, 206 — (2 x
32).
2.10.15.1 Aliphatic Mercaptans (Thiols) The molec-
ular ion peak of aliphatic mercaptans, except for higher
terliary mercaptans, às usually strong enough so that the
M + 2 peak can be accurately measured. In general, the
cleavage modes resemble those of alcohols. Cleavage of
the C—C bond («,8 bond) next to the SH group gives
the characteristic ion cH=SH —s éH,—SH (mz
47). Sulfur is poorer than nitrogen, but better than oxy-
gen, at stabilizing such a fragment. Cleavage at the By
bond gives a peak at m/z 61 of about one-hall the in-
tensity of the m/z 47 peak. Cleavage at the y,ô bond
gives a small peak at 2n/z 75, and elcavage at the 8,
bond gives a peak at m/z 89 that is more intense than
the peak at 1/2 75; presumably the n1/z 89 ion is stabi-
lized by cyelization:
Again analogous to alcohols, primary mercaptans
split out H;S to give a strong M — 34 peak, the resulting
ion then eliminating ethylene; thus the homologous se-
riesM — H;S — (CH,=CH,), arises.

carbons. Prominent pcaks are noted at m/z 119, 169,
219... : these are increments of CF, The stable ions
C;F;' and CF; give large peaks at m/z 13! and 181.
“The M — F peak is frequently visible in perfiuorinated
compounds. In monoflnorides, cleavage of the «8
€—C bond is less important than in the other mono-
halides, but cleavage of a C—H bond on the «-carbon
atom is more important. This reversal is a consequence
of the high electronegativity of the F atom and is ratio-
nalized by placing the positive charge on lhe e-carbon
atom, The secondary carbonium ion thus depicted by a
loss of a hydrogen atom is more stable than the primary
carbonium ion resulting trom loss of an alkyl radical,

2.10.16.5 Benzy] Halides The molecular ion peak of
benzy! halides is usually detectable. The benzyl (or tro-
pylium) ion from loss of the halide (rule 8, Section 2.7)
is favored even over 8-bond cleavage of an alkyl sub-
stitucnt. A substituted phenyl ion (a-bond cleavage) is
prominent when the ring is polysubstituted.

2.10.16.6 Aromatic Halides The molecular ion peak
of an aryl halide is readily apparent. The M — X peak
is large for all compounds in which X is attached directly
to the ring.

Bto the ring, as in alkylbenzencs, is the general rule; in
pyrídine, the position of substitution determines the
ease of cleavage of the 8 bond (see below).
Localizing the charge of the molecular ion on the
heteroatom, rather than in the ring a structure, provides
a satisfactory rationale for the observed mode of cleav-
age. The present treatment follows that uscd by Djerassi
(Budzikiewicz et al., 1967).
The five-membered ring heteroaromatics (furan,
thiophene, and pyrrole) show very similar ring cleavage
patterns. The first step in each case is cleavage of the
carbon-heteroatom bond.

peaks: C)H,! (m/z 39) and HC O (1/2 29). For thio-
phene, there arc three peaks, C,H;! (1m/z 39), HC
(m/z 45), and C, 5 (m/z 58). And for pyrrole, there
are three peaks: C,H,* (1/2 39), Hi NH (mz 28) and
CALNH (mz 41). Pyrrole also climinates a neutral
molecule of HCN to give an intense peak at m/z 40. The
basc peak of 2,5-dimethylfuran is 1/z 43 (CH;C= à.

Cleavage of lhe 8 C—C bond in alkylpyridines de-
pends on the position of ihe ring substitution, being
more pronounced when the alkyl group is in the 3 po-
sition. An alkyl group of more than three carbon atoms
in the 2 position can undergo migration of a hydrogen
atom to the ring nitrogen.

A similar cleavage is [ound in pyrazines since all

2.10.18.1 Amino Acids Detection of the molecular
ion peaks of amino acids can be difficull. H we examine
the mass spectra of amino acids, as well as of stcroids
and triglycerides, by a variety ol ionization techniques,
we can appreciate their relative merits.
The EI spectra of amino acids (Fig. 2.174) or their
esters give weak or nonexistent molecular ion peaks, but
CI and FD (Fig. 2.17b and c) give cither molecular or
quasimofecular ion peaks. The wcak molecular ions in
the EI spectra arise sinec amino acids easily lose their
carboxyl group and the esters easily lose their carboal-
koxyl group upon electron impact.

Infrared Spectrometry
E
3.1 Introduction
Infrared (TR) radiation refers broadly to that part of the
electromagnetic spectrum between the visible and mi-
crowave regions. Of greatest practical use to the organic
chemist is the limited portion between 4000 and
400 cm!. There has bcen some interest in the near-
IR (14,290-4000 em!) and Lhe far-IR regions. 700-
200 em!
From the brief theoretical discussion Lhat follows, it
is clear that even a very simple molecule can give an
extremely complex spectrum. The organic chemist takes
advantage of this complexity when matching the spec-
trum of an unknown compound against that of an au-
thentic sample. A peak-by-peak correlation is excellent
evidence for identity. Any two compounds, except en-
antiomers, are unlikely to give exactly the samc IR spec-
tum.
Although the IR spectrum is characteristic of the
entire molecule, it is true that certain groups of atoms
give rise to bands at or near the same frequency regard-
Jess of the structure of the rest of the molecule. Tt is the
persistence of these characteristic bands that permits
the chemist to obtain useful structural information by
simple inspection and reference to generalizcd charts of
characteristic group frequencies. Wc shall rely heavily
on these characterislic group frequencies.
Since we are not solely dependent on IR spectra for
identification. a detailed analysis of the spectrum will
not be required. Following, our general plan, we shall
present only sufficient thcory to accomplish our pur-
pose: utilization of IR speetra in conjunction with other
spectral data in order to determine molecular structure.
The importance of IR spectrometry as a tool of the
practicing organic chemist is readily apparent from the
number of books devoted wholly or im part to discus-
sions of applications ol IR spectrometry (sec the refer-
ences al fhe end of this chapter). There arc many com-
pilations of spectra as well as indexes to spectral
na
collections and to the literature. Among the more com-
monly used compilations are those published by Sadtler
(1972) and by Alkrich (1985).
3.2 Theory
Infrared radiation of frequencies Jess than about
100 cm is absorbed and converted by an organic mol-
ecule into cnergy ot molecular rotation, This absorption
is quantized: thus a molecular rotation spectrum consists
of discrete lines.
Infrared radiation in the range from about 10,000-
100 em”! is absorbed and converted by an organic mol-
ecule into energy of molecular vibration. This absorp-
tion is also quantized, but vibrational spectra appcar as
bands rather than as lines because a single vibrational
energy change is accompanied by a number of rota-
tional energy changes. Tt is with these vibralional-ro-
tational bands, particularly those occurring between
AQ0O and 400 em”, that we shall be concerned. "Lhe fre-
queney or wavelength of absorption depends on the rel-
ative masses of the atoms, the force constants of the
bonds, and thc geometry of the ators.
Band positions in IR spectra are presented here as
wavenumbers (7) whosc unit is the reciprocal centi-
meter (cm! this unit is proportional to the energy of
vibration and modern instruments arc linear in recip-
rocal centimeters. Wavelength (A) was used in Lhe older
literature in units of micrometers (um = 10-º m; earlier
called microns). Wavenumbers are reciprocally related
to wavelength.
emo! = 10gm
Note thal wavenumbers are sometimes called “fre-
quencies.” Lowever, this is incorrect sinec wavenum-
bers (7 in units ot em !) are equal to 1 x 10º im units
ot gm, whercas frequencies (vin Hz) are equal to c/À
in em, c being the speed of light (3 x 10º em/s). The
72 Chapter3 Infrared Spectrometry
symbol 7 is called “nu bar.” Our spectra are linear in
cm”! except for a few lincar in um. Note also thal these
spectra are different from one another in appearance
(sec Tig. 3.6).
Band intensities can be expressed either as trans-
mittance (7) or absorbance (A). Transmittance is the
ratio of thc radiant power transmitted by a sample to
the radiant power incident on the sample. Absorbance
is the logarithm, to the base 10, of the reciprocal of
the transmittanec; 4 = logy (1/7). Organic chemists
usually report intensity in semiquantitative terms (s =
strong, m = medium, w = weak).
There are two types of molecular vibrations:
strotching and bending. A stretching vibration is a
rhythmical movement along the bond axis such that the
interatomic distance is increasing or decreasing. A
bending vibration may consist of a change in bond angle
between bonds with a common atom or the movement
of a group of atoms with respect to Lhe remainder of the
molecule without movement of thc atoms in the group
with respect to one another. For cxample, twisting,
rocking. and torsional vibrations involve a change in
bond angles with reference to a set of coordinates ar-
bitrarily set up within the molecule.
Only those vibrations that result in a rhythmical
change in the dipole moment of the molecule are ob-
served in the IR. The alternating electric held, produced
by the changing charge distribution accompanying a vi-
bration, couples the molecule vibration with the oscil-
lating electric ficld of the electromagnetic radiation.
A molecuic has as many degrees of freedom as the
total degrees of freedom of its individual atoms. Each
atom has threc degrees of freedom corresponding to the
Cartesian coordinates (x, y, z) necessary to describe its
position relative to other atoms in the molecule, A mol-
ecule of 1 atoms therefore has 3r degrees of freedom.
For nonlinear molecules, three degrees of freedom de-
seríbe rotation and three describe translation; the re-
maining 3n — 6 degrees of freedom are vibrational de-
grees of freedom or [undamental vibrations. Linear
molecules have 32 — 5 vibrational degrees of freedom,
for only two degrees of freedom are required to describe
rotation.
Fundamental vibrations involve no change in the
center oJ gravity of the molecule.
The three fundamental vibrations of the nonlinear.

Note the very close spacing of the interaeting or coupled

The symmetrical stretching vibration in (1) above is
inactive in the IR since it produces no change in the
dipole moment of the molecule. The bending vibrations
in (3) and (4) above are equivalent and are the resolved
components of bending motion oriented at any angle to
the internuclear axis: they have lhe same frequency and
are said to be doubly degenerate.
The various stretching and bending modes for an
AX, group appearing as a portion of a molecule, for
example, the CH. group in a hydrocarbon molecule, are
shown in Figure 3.1, The 34 — 6 rule does not apply
since the CH, group represents only a portion of a mol-
ecule,
The theoretical number of fundamental vibrations
(absorption frequencies) will seldom be observed be-
cause overtones (multiples of a given frequency) and
combination tones (sum of two other vibrations) in-
crease the number of bands, whercas other phenomena
reduce the number of bands. The following will reduce
the theoretical number of bands.
1. Fundamental frequencies that fall outside of the
4000-400 em region”.
2. Fundamental bands that are too weak to be ob-
served.
3, Fundamental vibrations that are so close that they
coalesce,
4. The occurrence of a degenerate band from several
absorptions of the same frequency in highly sym-
metrical molecules.
5. The failure of certain fundamental vibrations to ap-
pecar in the TR because of the lack of change in mo-
Iccular dipole.
Assignments for stretching frequencies can be ap-
proximated by the application ot Hooke's law. In the
application of the law, two atoms and their connecting

Fermi resonance is a common phenomenon in IR
and Raman spectra, It requires that the vibrational lev-
els be of the same symmctry species and that the inter-
acting groups be located in the molecule so that me-
chanical coupling is appreciable.
An example of Fermi resonance in an organic struc-
ture is the “doublet” appearance of the C=O stretch
of cyctopentanone under sufficient resolution condi-
tions. Figure 3.2 shows the appearance of the spectrum

(Y) if the s orbital of the proton can elicetively overlap
the p or 7 orbital of the acceptor group. Atoms X and
Y are electronegative, with Y possessing lone pair elcc-
trons. The common proton donor groups in organic
molecules are carboxyl, hydroxyl, amine, or amide
groups. Common proton acceptor atoms are oxygen. ni-
trogen, and the halogens. Unsaturated groups, such as
the C=C€ linkage, can also act as proton acceptors.
The strength of the hydrogen bond is at a maximum
when the proton donor group and the axis of the lone
pair orbital are collinear, The strength of the bond de-
creases as Lhe distance between X and Y increases.
Ilydrogen bonding alters the force constant of both
groups: thus, the frequencies of bolh stretching, and
bending vibrations are altered. The X—H stretching
bands move to lower frequencies (longer wavelengths)
usually with increased intensity and band widening. The
stretching frequency of the acceptor group, for example,
C€=o0, is also reduced but to a lesser degree than the
proton donor group. The H—X bending vibration usu-
ally shifts to a shorter wavelength when bonding occurs;
this shift is less pronounced than that of the stretching
frequency.
Intermolecular hydrogen bonding involves associa-
tion of two or more molecules of the same or different
compounds. Intermolccular bonding may result in di-
mer molecules (as observed [or carboxylic acids) or in
polymeric molecular chains, which exist in ncat samples
or concentrated solutions of monohydroxy alcohols. fn-
tramolecular hydrogen bonds are formed when the pro-
ton donor and acceptor are present in a single molecule
under spatial conditions that allow the required overlap
of orbitals, for example. the formation of a five- or six-
membered ring. Lhe extent of both inter- and intra-
molecular bonding is temperature dependent. The
effect of concentration on intermolecular and intra-
molecular hydrogen bonding is markcdly different. The

bands that result from intermolecular bonding gencrally
disappear at low concentrations (less than about 0.01 M
in nonpolar solvents). Intramolecular hydrogen bond-
ing is an internal effect and persists at very low concen-
trations.
The change in frequency between “free” OH ab-
sorption and bonded OH absorption is a measure of the
strength of the hydrogen bond. Ring strain, molecular
geometry, and the relative acidity and basicity of the
proton donor and acceptor groups affect the strength of
bonding. Intramolecular bonding involving the same
bonding groups is stronger when a six-membered ring
is formed than when a smaller ring results from bonding.
Hydrogen bonding is strongest when the bonded struc-
ture is stabilized by resonance.
The effects of hydrogen bonding on the stretching
frequencies of hydroxyl and carbonyl groups are sum-
marized in Table 3.1. Figure 3.17 (spectrum of eyclo-
hexylcarbinol in the stretch region) clearly illustrates
this effect.
An important aspect of hydrogen bonding involves
interaction between functional groups of solvent and so-
lute. If the solute is polar, then it is important to note
the solvent used and the solute concentration.
3.3 Instrumentation
3.3.1 Dispersion IR Spectrometer
For many years, an infrared spectrum was obtained by
passing an infrared beam though the sample and scan-
ning the spectrum with a dispersion device (the familiar
diffraction grating). The spectrum was scanned by ro-
tating the diffraction grating; the absorption areas
(peaks) were detected and plotted as frequencies versus
intensities.
Figure 3.4 demonstrates a sophisticated double-
bcam dispersion instrument, operation of which in-
volves splitting the beam and passing one portion
through the sample cell and the other portion through
the reference cell. The individual beams are then recom-
bined into a single beam of alternating segments by
means of the rotating sector mirror, M7, and the ab-
sorption intensities of the segments are balanecd by the
altenuator in the reference beam. Thus, the solvent in
the reference cell and in the sample cell are balanced
out, and lhe spectrum contains only the absorption
peaks of the sample itself.
3.3.2 Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometer
(Interferometer)
Fourier transform infrared (FT IR) spectrometry has
been extensively developed over the past decade and
provides a number of advantages. Radiation containing
all IR wavelengths (e.g., 5000-400 cm !)is split into two
bcams (Fig. 3.5). One beam is of fixed length, the other
of variable length (movable mirror).
The varying distances between two pathlengths
result in a sequence of constructive and destructive in-
terferences and hence variations in intensities: an inter-
ferogram. Fourier transformation converts this interfer-
ogram from the time domain into one spectral point on
the more familiar form of the frequency domain.

Smooth and continuous variation of the length of the
piston adjusts the position of mirror B and varies the
length of beam B; Fourier translormation at successive
points throughout this variation gives rise to lhe com-
plete IR spectrum. Passage of this radiation through a
sample subjecis the compound to a broad band of en-
ergies. In principle the analysis of one broadbanded pass
of radiation through the sample will give rise to a com-
plete IR spectrum.
There are a number of advantages lo FT IR meth-
ads. Sinec a monochromatot is not used, the entire ra-
diation range is passed through the sample simulta-
necusly and much time is saved (FelgetU's advantage);

FT IR instruments can have very high resolution
(50.001 em"), Moreover since the data undergo ana-
Jog-to-digital conversion, IR results are easily manipu-
lated: Results of several scans arc combined to average
out random absorption artifacts, and excellent spectra
from very small samples can be obtained. An FT IR unit
can therefore be used in conjunetion with HPLC or GC.
As with any computer-aided spectrometer, spectra of
pure samples or solvents (stored in the computer) can
be sublracted from mixtures. Flexibility in spectral
printout is also available: for example, spectra linear in
either wavcnumber or wavelength can be obtained from
the samc data set.
Several manufacturers offer GC-FT IR instruments
with which a vapor-phase spectrum can be obtained on
nanogram amounts of a compound eluting from a cap-
illary GC column. Vapor-phasc spectra resemble those
obtained at high dilution in a nonpolar solvent: Con-
centration-dependent peaks are shifted to higher fre-
quency compared with those obtained trom concen-
trated solutions, thin films, or the solid state (see
Aldrich, 1985).
3.4 Sample Handling
Infrared spectra may be obtained for gases, liquids, or
solids. The spectra of gases or low-boiling liquids may
be obtaincd by expansion of the sample into an evacu-
ated ecll. Gas cells arc available in lengths of a few cen-
timeters to 40 m. The sampling arca of a standard IR
speetrophotometer will not accommodate cells much
longer than 10 cm: long paths are achieved by multiple
reflection optics.
Liquids may be examined neat or in solution. Neat
liquids are examined between salt plates, usually with-
out a spacer. Pressing a liquid sample between fiat plates
produces a film 0.01 mm or less in thickness, the plates
being held together by capillary action. Samples of
1-10 mg arc required. Thick samples of neat liquids

spectrum, arising from C—H stretching vibrations of
the aldehyde group. Simitarly, the assignment of a car-
bonyl band to an ester should be confirmed by obser-
vation of a strong band in the C—O stretching region,
1300-1100 cm,
Similar compounds may give virtually identical
spectra under normal conditions, but fingerprint differ-
ences can be detected with an expanded vertical scale
or with a very large sample (major bands off scale). For
example. pentane and hexane are essentially indistin-
guishable under normal conditions and can be differ-
entiated only at very high recorder sensitivity.

any other situation in which the shapes of peaks are

important, we should be aware oí the substantial differ-
ences in the appearance of the spectrum in changing
from a spectrum that is linear in wavenumber to one
that is linear in wavelength (Fig. 3.6).
Admittediy, the full chart of characteristic absorp-
tion groups (Appendix €) is intimidating. The following
statements and simplified chart may help (Fig. 3.7).
Thc first bit of advice is negative: Do not attempt a
frontal, systematic assault on an infrared spectrum.
Rather, look for evidence of the presence or absence of
a few common functional groups with very character-
istic absorptions. Start with OH, C=0, and NH groups

tribute to development of a molecular formula from the
mass spectrum and to an entry point for the NMR spec-
tra. These other spectra, in turn, will suggest further
leads in the IR spectrum.
Figure 3.7 lists the common groups that provide
distinctive, characteristic absorptions. Section 3.6 fur-
nishes morc detailed information — including a number
of caveats,
3.6 Characteristic Group Absorptions
of Organic Molecules
A table of characteristic group absorptions is presented
as Appendix C. The ranges presented for group absorp-
tions have been assigned following the examination of
many compounds in which the groups occur. Although
the ranges are quite well defined, the precise frequency
or wavelength at which a specific group absorbs is de-
pendent on its environment within the molecule and on
its physical state.
This section is concemned with a comprehensive
look at these characteristic group absorptions and their
relationship to molecular structure. As a major type or
class of molecule or functional group is introduced in
the succeeding sections, an example of an IR spectrum
with the important peak assignments will be given.
Spectra of common laboratory substances, representing
many of the chemical classes listed below, are shown
in Appendix B. Characteristic group absorptions are
found in Appendix C.
3.6.1 Normal Alkanes (Paraffins)
The specira of normal alkanes (paraffins) can be inter-
preted in terms of four vibrations, namely, the stretch-
ing and bending of C—H and C—C bonds. Detailed
analysis of the spectra of the lower members of the al-
kane series has made detailed assignments of the spec-
tral positions of specific vibrational modes possible,
Not all of the possible absorption freguencies of the
paraffin molecule are of equal value in the assignment
of structure. The C—C bending vibrations occur at very
low frequencies (below 500 em!) and therefore do not
appear in our spectra. The bands assigned to C—C
stretching vibrations are weak and appear in the broad
region of 1200-800 cm-!; they are generally of little
value for identification.
“The most characteristic vibrations are those arising
from C—H stretching and bending. Of these vibrations,
those arising from methylene twisting and wagging are
usually of limited diagnostic value because of their
weakness and instability. This instability is a result of
strong coupling to the remainder of the molecule.
The vibrational modes of alkanes are common to
many organic moleculcs. Although the positions of
C—H stretching and bending frequencies of methyl
and methylene groups remain ncarly constant in hydro-

carbons, the attachment of CH, or CH, to atoms other
than carbon, or to a carbonyl group or aromatic ring,
may result in aprreciable shifis of the C—H stretching
and bending frequenei
The spectrum of dodecane, Figure 3.8, is that of a
typical straight-chain hydrocarbon.
361.1 C—H Stretching Vibrations Absorption
arising from C—H stretching in the alkanes occurs in
the general region of 3000-2840 em 1. The positions of
the C—H stretching vibrations are among thc most sta-
ble in the spectrum.
Methyl Groaps An cxamination of a large num-
ber of saturated hydrocarbons containing methyl groups
showed, in all cases, two distinct bands occurring at 2962
and 2872 cm-!. The first ol Lhese results from the asym-
metrical (as) stretching mode in which two C—H bonds
of the methyl group are extending while the third one
is contracting (»,CH;). The second arises from sym-
metrical (s) stretehing (»CH,) in which all three of the
€-— H bonds extend and contract in phasc. The pres-
ence of several methyl groups in a molecule results in
strong absorption at these positions.
Methylene Groups The asymmetrical stretching
(Cr CH,) and symmetrical stretching (»CH;) oceur, re-
spectively, near 2926 and 2853 em !. The positions of
these bands do nol vary more than + 10 cm ! in the
aliphatic and nonstrained cyclic hydrocarbons. “The fre-
quency of methylene stretching is increased when the
methylene group is part of a strained ring.

The symmetrical bending vibration (3,CH;) occurs
near 1375 em?, the asymmetrical bending vibration
(8.CH;) near 1450 em 1.
The asymmetrical vibration generally overlaps Lhe
scissoring vibration of the methylenc groups (see be-
low). Two distinct bands are observed, however, in com-
pounds such as diethyl ketone, in which the methylenc
scissoring band has been shifted to a lower frequency,
1439-1399 em !, and increased in intensity because of
its proximity Lo the carbanyl group.
The absorption band near 1375 em", arising from
the symmetrical bending of the methyl C—H bonds, is
very stable in position when lhe methyl group is at-
tached to another carbon atom. The intensity of (his
band is greater for each methyl group in the compound
than that for the asymmetrical methyl bending vibration
or the methylene scissoring vibration.

3.6.4.2 Alkene C—H Stretching Vibrations In gen-
eral, any C—H stretching bands above 3000 cm”! result
from aromatic, heteroaromatic, alkyne, or alkene
C—H stretching. Also found in the same region are the
C—H stretching in small rings, such as cyclopropane,
and the C—H in halogenated alkyl groups. The fre-
quency and intensity of alkenc C—H stretching ab-
sorption are influenced by the pattern of substitution.
With proper resolution, multiple bands are observed for
structures in which stretching interaction may occur. For
example, the vinyl group produces three closely spaced
C—H stretching hands. Two of these result from sym-
metrical and asymmetrical stretching of the terminal
C—H groups, and the third from the stretching of
the remaining single C—H.

bending vibrations can be either in phase or out of phase
with respect to each other.
Assignments have been made for a few of the more
prominent and reliable in-plane bending vibrations. The
vinyl group absorbs near 1416 cm! because of a scis-
soring vibration of the terminal methylene. The C—H
rocking vibration ot a cis-disubstituted alkene oceurs in
the same gencral region.
The most characteristic vibrational modes of al-
kenes are the out-of-plane C—H bending vibrations
betwcen 1000 and 650 em-!, These bands are usually
the strongest in the spectra of alkenes. The most reliable
bands are those of the vinyl group, the vinylidene group,
and the trans-disubstituted alkene. Alkene absorption
is summarized in Appendix Tables D-1 and D-2.
Im allene structures, strong absorption is observed
near 850 em, arising from =CH, wagging. The first
avertone of this hand may also be seen. Some spcc-
tra showing alkene features are shown in Appendix
B: trichlorocthylene (No. 12) and tetrachloroethylene
(No. 13).

kynes, in which the substituents are different, absorb
near 2260-2190 em-!. When the substituents are similar
in mass, or produce similar inductive and resonance ef-
fects, the band may be so weak as to be unobserved in
the IR spectrum. For reasons of symmetry, a terminal
€=€ produces a stronger band than an internal
€ (pseudosymmetry). The intensity of the
C==C stretching band is increased by conjugation with
a carbonyl group.
36.52 CH Stretching Vibrations The C—H
stretching band of monosubslituted alkynes occurs in
the general region of 3333-3267 cem”). This is a strong,
band and is narrower than the hydrogen-bonded OH
and NJI bands occurring in the same region.
3.6.5.3 C—H Bending Vibrations The C—H hend-
ing vibration of alkynes or monosubstituted alkynes
leads to strong, broad abscrption in the 700-610 em”!
region. The first overtone of the €C—H bending vibra-
tion appears as a weak, broad band in the 1370-
1220 em”! region.
3.6.6 Mononuclear Aromatic Hydrocarbons
The most prominent and most informative bands in the
spectra of aromalic compounds occur in the low-
frequency range between 900 and 675 emm!. These
strong absorption bands result from the out-of-planc

bending bands appear in the 1300-1000 em”! region.

within lhe ring, absorb in the 1600-1585 and 1500-
1400 em! regions. The skeletal bands frequently appear
as doublets, depending on the nature of the ring sub-
stituents.
Aromatic C—H stretching bands occur between
3100 and 3000 em !.
Wcak combination and evertonc bands appear in
the 2000-1650 em ! region. The pattern of the avertone
bands is not a reliable guide to the substitution pattern
of the ring. Because they are weak, the overtonc and
combination bands are most readily observed in spectra
obtained from thick samples. [he spectrum of Figure
3,13 is that of a typical aromatic (benzenoid) compound.
3.6.6.1 Qut-of-Plane C—IN Bending Vibrations The
in-phase, out-of-planc bending of a ring hydrogen atom
is strongly coupled to adjacent hydrogen atoms, The po-
sition of absorption of the out-of-plane bending bands
is therefore characteristic of the number of adjacent hy-
drogen atoms on the ring. The bands are frequentiy in-
tense and appear at 900-675 em !.
Assignments Lor €— E out-of-plane bending bands
in the spectra of substituted benzenes appear in the
chart of characteristic group absorptions (Appendix C).
Thesc assignments are usually reliable [or alkyl-substi-
tuted benzenes, but caution must be observed in the
interpretation of spectra when polar groups are al-
tached directly to the ring. for example, im nitroben-
zenes, aromatic acids, and esters or amides of aromatic
acids.
The absorption band that frequently appears in the
spectra of substituted benzenes near 600-420 cm ! is
attributed 10 out-of-plane ring bending. Some spectra
showing typical aromatic absorption appear in Appen-
dix B: benzene (No. 4), indene (No. 8), diethylphthalate
(No. 21), and sm-xylene (No. 6).

3.6.7 Polynuclear Aromatic Hydrocarbons
Polynuclear aromatic compounds, like the mononuclear
aromatics. show characteristic absorption in three
regions of the spectrum.
The aromatic C—H stretching and the skeletal vi-
brations absorb in the same regions as observed for the
mononuclear aromatics. The most characteristic absorp-
tion of polynuclear aromatics results from C—H out-
of-planc bending in the 900-675-cm-! region. These
bands can be correlated with the number of adjacent
hydrogen atoms on the rings. Most 8-substituted nuph-
thalenes, for example, show three absorption bands re-
sulting from out-of-plane C—H bending; these corre-
spond to an isolated hydrogen atom and two adjacent
hydragen atoms on one ring and four adjacenthydrogen
atoms on the ather ring.
In the spectra of «-substituted naphthalenes the
bands for thc isolated hydrogen and the two adjacent
hydrogen atoms of B-naphthalenes are replaced by a
band for three adjacent hydrogen atoms. This band is
near 810-785 emrt,

Additional bands may appear because of ring bend-
ing vibrations. The position of absorption bands for
more highly substitutcd naphthalenes and other poly-
nuclear aromatics are summarized by Colthup et al.
(1990) and by Conley (1972).
3.6.8 Alcohols and Phenols
The charactcristic bands observed in the spectra of al-
cohols and phenols result from O—H stretching and
C—O stretching. These vibrations are sensitive to hy-
drogen honding. The C—O stretching and O—H
bending modes are not independent vibrational modes
because they couple with the vibrations of adjacent
groups. Some typical spectra of alcohols and a phenol
arc shown in Figures 3.14-3.16.
36.81 O—H Stretching Vibrations Thc non-
hydrogen-bonded or “free” hydroxyl group of alcohols
and phenols absorbs strongly in the 3700 — 3584 em !
region. Lhesc sharp, “free” hydroxyl bands are ob-
served in the vapor phase, in very dilute solution in non-
polar solvents or for hindered OH groups. Intermolee-
ular hydrogen bonding increases as the concentration of
the solution increases, and additional bands start to ap-
pear at lower frequencies, 3550-3200 em !. at Lhe cx-
pense of the “free” hydroxyl band, This effect is illus-
trated in Figure 3.17, in which lhe absorption bands in
the Q—H stretching region are shown for two dillerent
concentrations of cyclohexylcarbinol im carbon tetra-
chloride. For comparisons of this type, the path length
of the cell must be altered with changing concentration,
so that the same number of absorbing molecules will be
present in thc TR beam at cach concentration. The band
at 3623 em”! results from the monomer, whereas the
90 Chapter3 Infrared Spectrometry
36.82 C—O Stretching Vibrations The C—O
stretching vibrations in alcohols and phenols produce a
strong band in the 1260-1000 em”! region of the spec-
trum. The C—O stretching mode is conpled with the
adjacent C—C stretching vibration; thus in primary al-
cohols the vibration might better be described as an
asymmetric C—C—O stretching vibration. The vibra-
tional mode is further complicated by branching and
«,B-unsaturation. These effects are summarized as fol-
lows for a series of secondary alcohols (neal samples):
Secondary Alenhok Abserption (em!)
2-Butanol 1105
3-Methyl-2-butano! 1091
1-Phenylethanol 1073
3-Buten-2-0] 1058
Diphenylmethanol 1014
The absorption ranges of the various types of al-
cohols appear in Table 3.2, below. These values are for
neat samples of the alcohols.
Mulls, pellets, or melts of phenols absorb at 1390-
1330 and 1260-1180 cm-!. These bands apparentiy
result from interaction between O—H bending and
€—O stretching. The long-wavelength band is the
stronger and both bands appear at longer wavelengths
in spectra observed in solution. The spectrum of Figure
3.16 was determined on a meit. to show a high degree
of association.
3.683 OH Bending Vibrations The O—H in-
plane bending vibration occurs in lhe gencral region of
1420-1330 em"! In primary and secondary alcohols,
Table 3.2 Alcoholic C—O Stretch Absorptions
the O—H in-plane bending couples with the C—H
wagging vibrations to produce two bands; the first near
1420 em, the second near 1330 em |, These bands arc
of little diagnostic value. Tertiary alcohols, in which
no coupling can occur, show a single band in this
region, the position depending on the degree of hydro-
gen bonding.
“The spectra of alcohols and phenols determined in
the liquid state, show a broad absorption band in the
769-650 em ! region because of out-of-plane bending
of the bonded O—H group. Some spectra showing typ-
ical alcoholic absorptions are shown in Appendix B:
ethyl alcohol (No. 16) and methanol (No. 15).
3.6.9 Ethers, Epoxides, and Peroxides
36941 C—O Stretching Vibrations The character-
istic response of ethers in the IR is associated with the
stretching vibration of the C—O—C system. Since the
vibrational characteristics of this system would not be
expected to differ greatly from the C—C—C system,
it is not surprising to find the response to C—O—C
stretching in the same general region. However, since
vibrations involving oxygen atoms result in greater di-
pole moment changes than those involving carbon at-
oms, more intense TR bands are observed for cihers.
The €C— OC stretching bands of ethers, as is the case
with the C—O srretching bands of alcohols, involve
coupling with other vibrations within the molecule. The
spectrum of Figure 3.19 is that of a typical aryl alkyl
ether. In addition, the specira of ethyl ether (No. 22)
and p-dioxane (a cyclic diether, No. 23) are shown in
Appendix B.

band appears in the 950-810 em ! region attributed to
asymmetrical ring stretching in which the C—C bond

in the 840750 cm | region, The CH stretching vi-
brations of epoxy rings oceur in the 3050-2990 cm!
region of the spectrum.
36.10 Ketones
36.101 C=0 Stretching Vibrations Ketones, alde-
hydes, carboxylic acids, carboxylic esters, lactones, acid
halides, anhydrides, amides, and lactams show a strong
€C=o0 stretching absorption band in the region of 1870-
1540 cm. Tts relatively constant position, high inten-
sity, and relative freedom from intertering bands make
this onc of the easiest bands to recognize in IR spectra.
Within its given range, the position of the C=0
stretching band is determined by the following factors:
(1) the physical state, (2) electronic and mass clfects
of neighboring substituents, (3) conjugation, (4) hydro-
gen bonding (intermolecular and intramolecular), and
(5) ring strain. Consideration of these factors leads to a
considerable amount of information about the environ-
ment of the C==O group.
In a discussion of these effects, it is customary to
refer to the absorption frequency of a ncat sample of
a saturated aliphatic ketonc, 1715 cm ?, as “normal.”
For example, acetone and cyclohexanone absorb at

1715 em-!. Changes in the environment of the carbony]
can cilher lower or raise the absorption frequency from
this “normal” value. A typical ketone spectrum is dis-
played in Figure 3.20.
The absorption frequency observed for a neat sam-
ple is increased when absorption is observed in nonpo-
lar solvents. Polar solvents reduce the frequency of ab-
sorption. The overall range of solvent effects does not
exceed 25 em 1.
Replacement of an alkyl group of a saturated ali-
phatic ketone by a hetero atom (G) shifts the carbonyl
absorption. The direction of the shift depends on
whether the inductive effect (a) or resonance effect (b)
predominates,
Gs Ro.
A =0 EO
R R
(a) (b)
The inductive effect reduces the length of the
€=0 bond and thus increases its force constant and
lhe frequency of absorption. The resonance effect in-
creases the €C=0 bond length and reduces the fre-
quency of absorption.
The absorptions of several carbonyl compound
classes are summarized in Table 3.3.
Conjugation with a C==C bond results in delocali-
zation of the 7 electrons of both unsaturatcd groups.
Delocalization of the 7 clectrons of the C=O group
reduces the double-bond character of the C—O bond,
causing absorption at lower wavenumbers (longer
wavelengths). Conjugation with an alkene or phenyl
group causes absorption in the 1685-1666 cm ! region.
Additional conjugation may cause a slight further re-

ized saturated ahphatie acids absorbs in the region of tively. Both of these hands involve some interaction be-
1720-1706 em |. tween C—O stretching and in-plane C—O—H bend-
ing. The more intense band, near 1315-1280 em”! for
dimers, is generally referred to as the C—O stretching
band and usually appears as a doublet in the spectra of
long-chain fatty acids. The C—-O—H bending band
near 1440-1395 cm”! is of moderate intensity and oc-
curs in the same region as the CH, scissoring vibration
of the CH, group adjacent to the carbonyl.
One of the characteristic bands in the spectra of
dimeric carboxylic acids results from the out-of-plane
bending of the bonded O—H. The band appears near
920 cm”! and is characteristically broad with medium
intensity.
Internal hydrogen bonding reduces the frequency
of the carbonyl stretching absorption to a greater degree
than does intermolecular hydrogen bonding. For ex-
ample, salicylic acid absorbs at 1665 cm !, whereas
p-hydroxybenzoic acid absorbs at 1680 em !.
Unsaturation in conjugation with the carboxylic
carbonyl group decrcases the frequency (increases the
wavelength) of absorption of both the monomer and
dimer forms only slightly. In general, «,B-unsaturated
and aryl conjugated acids show absorption Jor the dimer
in the 1710-1680 em ! region, Extension of conjugation
beyond the «,8-position results in very little additional
shifting of the C=0O absorption.
Substitution in the a-position with electroncgalive
groups, such as lhe halogens, brings about a slight in-
crease in the € absorption frequency (10-20 em-", 3.6.13 Carboxylate Anion

The carboxylate ion gives rise to two bands: a strong

a weaker, symmetricai stretching band near 1400 cm",
“The conversion of a carboxylic acid to a salt can
serve as confirmation of the acid structure. This is con-
veniently done by the addition of a tertiary aliphatic
aminc, such as triethylamine, 10 a solution of the car-
boxylic acid in chloroform (no reaction occurs in CCI).
The carboxylate ion thus formed shows the two char-
acteristic carbonyl absorption bands in addition to an
“ammonium” band in the 2700-2200 cm | region. The
O—H stretching band, of course, disappears. The spec-
trum of ammonium benzoate, Figure 3.24, demonstrates
most ol these features.

curs at higher frequencies (shorter wavelength) than
that of normal ketones. Lhe force constant of the car-
bonyl bond is increased by the electron-attracting na-
ture of the adjacent oxygen atom (inductive effect).
Overlapping occurs between esters in which the car-
bonyl frequency is lowered, and ketones in which the

normal ketone frequency is raised. A distinguishing
feature of esters and lactones, however. is the strong
C—O stretching band in the region where a weaker
band occurs for ketones. There is overlapping in the
€=0 frequency of esters or lactones and acids, but the
OH stretching and bending vibrations and the possibil-
ity of salt formation distinguish the acids.
The frequency of the ester carbonyl responds to en-
vironmental changes in the vicinity of the carbonyl
group in much the same manner as ketones. The spec-
trum of phenyl acetate, Figure 3.25, illustrates most of
the important absorption characteristics for esters.
36.141 C=0 Stretching Vibrations The C=0 ab-
sorption band of saturated aliphatic esters (except for-
mates) is in the 1750-1735 cm”! region. The C=O
absorption bands of formates, «,B-unsaturated, and
benzoate esters are in the region of 1730-1715 em".
Further conjugation has little or no additional effect
upon the frequency of the carbonyl absorption.
In the spectra of vinyl or phenyl esters, with unsat-
uration adjacent to the C—O— group, a marked rise
in the carbonyl frequency is observed along with a low-
cring of the C—O frequency. Vinyl acetate has a car-
bonyl band at 1776 em-!; phenyl acetate absorbs at
1770 emt.
«-Halogen substitution results in a rise in the
€=o0 stretching trequency. Ethyl trichloroacetate ab-
sorbs at 1770 em-!.
In oxalates and a-keto esters, as in a-diketones,
there appears to be little or no interaction between the
two carbony groups so that normal absorption occurs
