54
IR Active = ?
| Raman Active = ?
IR Active = dipole moment change
| Raman Active = NO dipole meant change
55
KNOW THE VIBRATIONAL VARIATIONS
| Bond Stretching and Bending
Stretching = symmetric vs. asymmetric
Bending = in-plane rocking vs. in-plane scissoring
= out-of-plane wagging vs. out-of-plane twisting
56
Harmonic Oscillator

E = (v + 1/2) h Vm
57
Degrees of Freedom =
= 3N
58
Degrees of Freedom
How you can deduce the number and kind of vibrations in simple systems
59
How to Calculate Degrees of Freedom:
A molecule containing N atoms is said to have 3N degrees of freedom (3*N)
60
3 Different Types of Degrees of Freedom:
A. Translational - motion of the entire molecule thru space
B. Rotational - motion of entire molecule around its center of gravity
C. Vibrational - motion of each of its atoms to the other atoms
61
How to Calculate Vibrational Degrees of Freedom:
3N - 6
| 3N - 5 for LINEAR molecules
62
4 Things that give less Degrees of Freedom than expected:
1. No change in dipole moment (due to symmetry of molecules)
2. The energies of 2 or more vibrations are identical (or nearly identical)
3. The absorption intensity is so low that it is undetectable
4. The vibrational energy is in a wavelength region beyond the instrument’s range
63
Vibrations are not completely separate......
They interact with each other.
64
Rules of Vibrational Coupling:
A. Strong coupling between stretch vibrations occurs only when there is an atom common to the 2 vibrations.
B. Interaction between bending vibrations requires a common bond between the vibrating groups.
C. Coupling between a stretching and bending vibration can occur if the stretching bond forms one side of the angle that varies in the bending vibration.
D. Interaction is greatest when the coupled groups have individual energies that are nearly equal.
E. Little or no interaction is observed between groups separated by 2 or more bonds.
F. Coupling requires that the vibrations be of the same symm. species.
65
Layout of FTIR:
- the laser is NOT the source; it is only a guide.

72
Bolzmann’s Distribution of States

Nj/No = exp (-deltaE / KT)
(Delta E is the energy levels generated by the magnetic moment; magnet dependent)
73

74

75

76
Lattice

77
Spin-Lattice Relaxation:
All magnetic field interact and will convert almost anything into minuscule temperature adjustments
(1st order exponential decay characterized by a relaxation time, T1)
78
Spin-Spin Relaxation
When 2 neighboring nuclei of the same kind have identical relaxation rates but are in different magnetic quantum states, the magnetic fields of each can interact to cause an interchange of states
79
Resolution in NMR:
- spin-lattice can be impacted to spread peaks further apart; peaks shifter further apart at a better resolution
- spin-spin is NOT affected.
80
Chemical shift is due to.....
Spin-lattice coupling
81
Chemical Shift
The frequency of the resonance expressed with reference to a standard compound which is defined to be at 0 ppm
82
Screening
Detection of fragments from NMR, which can be used to determine the overall structure
83
Shielding
When a nucleus’s chemical shift has been decreased due to addition of electron density or change in magnetic field
84
Splitting
Occurs as the magnetic field of 2 adjacent nuclei interact, which pushes electrons around the structure. The movement of electrons produces changes in the magnetic field.
