Wavelength
distance between any two peaks of a wave
Wavenumber
the number of wavelengths that fit into one centimeter (cm-1)
IR-active vibration
a vibration that changes the dipole moment of the molecule allowing it to absorb infrared light
IR-inactive vibration
a vibration that does not change the dipole moment of the molecule and thus cannot absorb infrared light
fingerprint region
portion of the infrared spectrum between 600 and 1400 cm-1 where many complex vibrations occure
conjugated double bonds
double bonds that alternate with single bonds, so their pi bonding orbitals can overlap with each other
overtone
weak absorption at a multiple of the fundamental vibration frequency
radical cation
a positively charged ion with an unpaired e-
fragmentation
the breaking apart of a molecular ion upon ionization in a mass spectrometer
base peak
the strongest peak in a mass spectrum
