General principle of IR
|
Compounds with pi or non bonding electrons produce a UV/Visible spectra due to chemical bond vibrations
|
|
Why do compounds (ie peptides) have set wavelengths?
|
Every bond has vibrational wavelengths which must be equal to the light energy, if not the photon will transmit instead of being absorbed.
|
|
What does a bond have to be to be absorb IR?
|
Asymmetric with a dipole
Have pi or not bonded electrons |
