Infrared spectroscopy bond stretching

In short, near-infrared spectra arise from the same source as mid-range (or normal ) infrared spectroscopy vibrations, stretches, and rotations of atoms about a chemical bond. In a classical model of the vibrations between two atoms, Hooke s Law was used to provide a basis for the math. This equation gave the lowest or base energies that arise from a harmonic (diatomic) oscillator, namely ... 

The ease of sample handling makes Raman spectroscopy increasingly preferred. Like infrared spectroscopy, Raman scattering can be used to identify functional groups commonly found in polymers, including aromaticity, double bonds, and C bond H stretches. More commonly, the Raman spectmm is used to characterize the degree of crystallinity or the orientation of the polymer chains in such stmctures as tubes, fibers (qv), sheets, powders, and films... 

Infrared (IR) spectroscopy (Section 13.20) Analytical technique based on energy absorbed by a molecule as it vibrates by stretching and bending bonds. Infrared spectroscopy is useful for analyzing the functional groups in a molecule. 

The structure of the protonated enamines has been investigated by infrared spectroscopy. On protonation there is a characteristic shift of the band in the double-bond stretching region to higher frequencies by 20 to 50 cm with an increased intensity of absorption (6,13,14a). Protonated enamines also show absorption in the ultraviolet at 220-225 m/x due to the iminium structure (14b). This confirms structure 5 for these protonated enamines, because a compound having structure 4 would be expected to have only end absorption as the electrons on nitrogen would not be available for interaction with the n electrons of the double bond.

Much earlier information on the structure of diazonium ions than that derived from X-ray analyses (but still useful today) was obtained by infrared spectroscopy. The pioneers in the application of this technique to diazonium and diazo compounds were Le Fevre and his school, who provided the first IR evidence for the triple bonds by identifying the characteristic stretching vibration band at 2260 cm-1 (Aroney et al., 1955 see also Whetsel et al., 1956). Its frequency lies between the Raman frequency of dinitrogen (2330 cm-1, Schrotter, 1970) and the stretching vibration frequency of the C = N group in benzonitrile (2255 cm-1, Aroney et al., 1955). In substituted benzenediazonium salts the frequency of the NN stretching vibration follows Hammett op relationships. Electron donor substituents reduce the frequency, whereas acceptor substituents increase it. The 4-dimethylamino group, for example, shifts it by 103 cm-1 to 2177 cm-1 (Nuttall et al., 1961). This result supports the hypothesis that... 

We focus our review on the dynamical properties of hydrogen bonds X-H Y which have been widely studied by means of infrared spectroscopy. Indeed, the infrared (IR) spectra of hydrogen bonds (H bonds) appeared to be a very useful tool because the broad stretching band vs (X-H - Y) is very informative, containing complete information on the electronic and consequently nuclear... 

Infrared spectroscopy is an excellent tool in iminoborane chemistry, which readily permits, to distinguish between iminoboranes and nitrile-borane adducts and to identify monomeric and dimeric forms of iminoboranes. This event is due to the fact that the i>CN of CN multiple bonds absorbs outside the fingerprint region and can be considered to be a valuable group frequency even when mixed with other vibrational modes. In some cases other vibrations like NH, BH, B-halogen or B-S stretching modes are helpful for determining the structure of iminoboranes. 

Carbon monoxide on metals forms the best-studied adsorption system in vibrational spectroscopy. The strong dipole associated with the C-O bond makes this molecule a particularly easy one to study. Moreover, the C-0 stretch frequency is very informative about the direct environment of the molecule. The metal-carbon bond, however, falling at frequencies between 300 and 500 cm1, is more difficult to measure with infrared spectroscopy. First, its detection requires special optical parts made of Csl, but even with suitable equipment the peak may be invisible because of absorption by the catalyst support. In reflection experiments on single crystal surfaces the metal-carbon peak is difficult to obtain because of the low sensitivity of RAIRS at low frequencies [12,13], EELS, on the other hand, has no difficulty in detecting the metal-carbon bond, as we shall see later on. 

Adsorption of 0.05 monolayers (ML) of CO on this surface gives rise to a peak at 2015 cm-1 corresponding to the internal C-0 stretch frequency of the molecule in the on-top adsorption site and one at 470 cm-1 due to the metal-molecule bond. The latter is not easily observable in infrared spectroscopy. Increasing the CO coverage to 0.33 ML enhances the intensity of the HREELS peaks. In addition, the C-O stretch frequency shifts upward because of dipole-dipole coupling [16, 17]. The LEED pattern corresponds to an ordered (V3xV3)R30° overlayer in Wood s notation (see the Appendix) in accordance with the coverage of 0.33 ML. 

Similar to the TGA experiments, in situ Infrared Spectroscopy has been used to follow the amide bond stretching frequencies while heating under various atmospheres. ° These experiments (see Fig. 7.2) suggest that dendrimer removal requires relatively forcing conditions to maximize CO adsorption on supported Pt catalysts prepared from A variety of activation conditions have been... 

There are three methods that are widely used to follow the rates of isotopic hydrogen exchange in heterocyclic compounds. First, infrared spectroscopy enables the replacement of a hydrogen atom by a deuterium atom within a molecule to be detected. When an —H bond becomes an X—D bond there is a reduction in the stretching frequency... 

The complexity of the physical properties of liquid water is largely determined by the presence of a three-dimensional hydrogen bond (HB) network [1]. The HB s undergo continuous transformations that occur on ultrafast timescales. The molecular vibrations are especially sensitive to the presence of the HB network. For example, the spectrum of the OH-stretch vibrational mode is substantially broadened and shifted towards lower frequencies if the OH-group is involved in the HB. Therefore, the microscopic structure and the dynamics of water are expected to manifest themselves in the IR vibrational spectrum, and, therefore, can be studied by methods of ultrafast infrared spectroscopy. It has been shown in a number of ultrafast spectroscopic experiments and computer simulations that dephasing dynamics of the OH-stretch vibrations of water molecules in the liquid phase occurs on sub-picosecond timescales [2-14],...
