Electromagnetic Radiation
 Electromagnetic
radiation: light and other forms
of radiant energy
 Wavelength (): the distance between
consecutive peaks on a wave
 Frequency (): the number of full cycles of a
wave that pass a given point in a second
 Hertz (Hz): the unit in which radiation frequency
is reported; s-1 (read “per second”)

Molecular Spectroscopy
 Molecular
spectroscopy: the study of which
frequencies of electromagnetic radiation are
absorbed or emitted by a particular substance
and the correlation of these frequencies with
details of molecular structure
• we study three types of molecular spectroscopy

Molecular Vibrations
• atoms joined by covalent bonds undergo continual
vibrations relative to each other
• the energies associated with these vibrations are
quantized; within a molecule, only specific vibrational
energy levels are allowed
• the energies associated with transitions between
vibrational energy levels correspond to frequencies in
the infrared region, 4000 to 400 cm-1
12-8
Molecular Vibrations
 For
a molecule to absorb IR radiation
• the bond undergoing vibration must be polar and
• its vibration must cause a periodic change in the bond
dipole moment
 Covalent
bonds which do not meet these criteria
are said to be IR inactive
• the C-C double and triple bonds of symmetrically
substituted alkenes and alkynes, for example, are IR
inactive because they are not polar bonds

Molecular Vibrations
 For
a nonlinear molecule containing n atoms,
there are 3n - 6 allowed fundamental vibrations
 For even a relatively small molecule, a large
number of vibrational energy levels exist and
patterns of IR absorption can be very complex
 The simplest vibrational motions are bending
and stretching

Molecular vibrations
 Fundamental
stretching and bending vibrations

12-11
Molecular Vibrations
 Consider
two covalently bonded atoms as two
vibrating masses connected by a spring
• the total energy is proportional to the frequency of
vibration
• the frequency of a stretching vibration is given by an
equation derived from Hooke’s law for a vibrating
spring

= 4.12
K

K = a force constant, which is a measure of the bonds’
strength; force constants for single, double, and triple
bonds are approximately 5, 10, and 15 x 105 dynes/cm
 = reduced mass of the two atoms, (m1m2)/(m1 + m2),
12-12
where m is the mass of the atoms in grams
Molecular Vibrations

= 4.12
K

 From
this equation, we see that the position of a
stretching vibration

• is proportional to the strength of the vibrating bond
• is inversely proportional the masses of the atoms
connected by the bond
The intensity of absorption depends primarily on the
polarity of the vibrating bond
