Principle of
Molecular Spectroscopy
Identification of an organic compound relied upon:elemental analysisphysical propertieschemical tests
Different spectroscopy techniques are used.study the interaction of emr with matterspectrometer spectrumultraviolet/visible (uv/vis),
infra-red (IR),nuclear magnetic resonance (nmr), mass spectrometry (MS)
Electromagnetic radiation can be described as a wave or as a particle.
As wave: λν = cAs a particle (photon): E=hν
Energy can be classified in different regions:
Probing different aspects of molecular structure:
Spectroscopic methods based on absorption of emr.
E1 ground state
E2 excited state
ΔE = hν energy
