1 Reminder: These notes are meant to supplement, not replace, the laboratory manual. Infrared Spectroscopy History and Application: Infrared (IR) radiation is simply one segment of the electromagnetic spectrum of which visible light is a part. Human eyes do not detect infrared radiation. Infrared spectroscopy is a method to quantify how much of this type of radiation is absorbed by sample materials. Different chemical functional groups absorb specific wavelengths of radiation in the IR range. By examining the characteristic absorbance patterns of a compound, the functional groups present can be determined. The first commercial Infrared Spectrometer was offered for sale by Perkin-Elmer in i These early analyses were very labor intensive exercises. The first computer controlled IR was also developed by Perkin-Elmer in i The XULA organic chemistry labs have two Nicolet If5 Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) machines. Each of these machines cost approximately $14,000 ii. They produce high quality spectra in a rapid and easy to use manner. IR spectroscopy is a reliable and facile analytical technique that has many real world applications. IR is used in many food and chemical production facilities to measure product quality iii ranging from measuring the fat and moisture in meat to film thickness of polymer sheets. Laboratory Application 1. Visible light is one small portion of the electromagnetic (EM) radiation spectrum. Here is a list of the types of electromagnetic (EM) radiation, in order of decreasing energy per photon. gamma rays > x-rays > ultraviolet > visible > infrared > microwaves > radio wave In the equation E = ħ = ħ c/, E is the energy, ħ is Planck s constant, is the frequency, c is the velocity of light, and (lambda) is the wavelength. The

2 velocity of light in a vacuum is a constant value (3.0x10 8 m/s). This means that 1 or that Energy is proportional to frequency and frequency is λ proportional to the inverse of wavelength. In other words as energy increases, frequency increases, and wavelength decreases. Think about this until it makes sense. 2. The standard frequency unit used in IR is wavenumber. This is the number of waves in 1 centimeter (waves/cm or cm- 1 ) or reciprocal centimeters. This simply describes the number of waves of that particular electromagnetic radiation that will fit within one centimeter. As the wavenumber increases, the wavelength decreases, and the energy increases. The image on the left has a higher wavenumber (more waves per unit of distance), and therefore a shorter wavelength and higher energy than the image on the right. A typical IR spectrum spans 500 wavenumbers (cm -1 ) to 4000 wavenumbers (cm -1 ). 3. hemical bonds are formed by electrons being shared between two nuclei. Different chemical bonds absorb different energy (different wavenumber) of infrared radiation. The absorbed energy causes the bond to vibrate, stretch or bend faster (change to a higher-energy state). The analysis of the different characteristic IR energy being absorbed by a material allows the detection of different chemical bonds within a molecule. 4. IR spectroscopy is the study of molecules by their absorption of infrared radiation. hemists use IR spectroscopy to identify the functional groups present in molecules. We also compare IR spectra of unknown compounds with literature spectra of known compounds, for purposes of identification. These comparisons are most often performed using computers. IR spectroscopy does not provide complete detailed chemical structures, it only provides information about the functional groups present. 5. Different types of samples can be used when taking IR spectra. Neat samples are liquid samples with no added solvent. (We don t call them pure samples because they can be mixtures, and often are.) Salt plates are disks or rectangles of clear salt (typically Nal or KBr) with parallel faces. Glass plates cannot be used because glass (SiO 2 ), while transparent in the visible range, is opaque to IR frequencies. Handle salt plates only by the edges, because fingerprints can contaminate the plates. Do not allow any water or wet solvents to contact the salt plates. Neat samples or Nujol mulls are placed between two salt plates for IR spectroscopy. To clean salt plates, rinse them with acetone or another dry organic solvent. DO NOT rinse them with water or a solvent containing water (such has 95% ethanol) or the salt will dissolve. Nujol is a brand name of mineral oil similar to baby oil. Mineral oil is distilled from petroleum, and is a mixture of alkanes having medium molecular weights (higher than kerosene, lower than paraffin). A Nujol mull is a thick

3 suspension of a solid compound with the oil. Mulls are made by grinding the solid and oil together in a mortar and pestle. KBr pellets are solid mixtures of potassium bromide (a salt used to treat epilepsy iv ) and a solid sample. To make a KBr pellet mix a ground solid sample with ground potassium bromide. Subject this mixture to high pressure to form a disc shaped pellet. This pellet will be translucent or transparent to IR light and an IR spectrum can be taken directly. 6. Each of you will receive an unknown compound. All of today s unknown samples are pure neat liquids. You will analyze your unknown in a FT-IR spectrophotometer as a thin film between two salt plates. An IR spectrum will be obtained. Your careful analysis of the spectrum will allow you to correctly identify the functional group within the unknown material. By examining the list of possible unknown compounds against the known functional group present, the identification of the material may be determined. 7. A Thermo Scientific Nicolet IF5 FTIR Spectrometer is shown below. 8. A typical IR spectrum is a graph. The X axis gives the frequency of the EM radiation in reciprocal centimeters or wavenumbers. The Y axis shows the transmittance which indicates the relative amount of IR photons that are absorbed. If a sample does not absorb any IR photons, a straight baseline will result close to 100 % transmittance ( 0 % absorbance). The baseline is at the upper edge of the spectrum.

4 If a compound absorbs in the IR, a peak will result. The compound which was responsible for the above spectrum has a number of characteristic absorbances v. The strongest absorbance is at 1720 cm -1. You will soon learn to see that this particular absorbance is characteristic of carbonyl (=O) groups. 9. Below are the structures, names and functional group present in the12 possible unknown compounds as well as the material used to clean the salt plates, acetone. There are no chemical reactions for this experiment. Write all of the structures and names of the compounds in your notebook. Propanoic Acid yclohexanol 1-Hexyne (carboxylic acid) (alcohol) (terminal alkyne) Butyl Acetate (ester) 2-methoxy-2-methyl propane (MTBE) (ether) 2-butanone acetonitrile cyclohexene (ketone) (nitrile) (alkene) H 3 Heptane (alkane) H 3 1,6-Diaminohexane (primary amine)

5 -Butyrolactam 2-Propanone (Acetone)-Used to clean salt plates, (a cyclic amide) not a possible unknown(ketone) 10. Safety considerations: All of the compounds you will take IR spectra of in this experiment are flammable and slightly toxic. Wash your hands after conducting the experiment. Gloves may we worn while handling salt plates. This will keep chemicals off your hands, as well keeping moisture from your hands off of the salt plates. Infrared radiation is relatively (but not completely) harmless. The safety instructions on the IR spectrometer say Do not stare into beam, because long exposures can be damaging. Normal IR exposure is not hazardous. 11. Read over the IR Spectra Interpretation document found on the 2230L Organic hemistry I Lab web site. Your instructor will go over methods to properly and easily interpret IR spectra. This information will be used to determine the identity of your unknown material.
