Spectroscopy Data Tables Infrared Tables (short summary of commot sorption frequencies) The values given in the tables that follow are typical values. Specific bands may fall over a range of wavenumbers, cm". Specific substituents may cause variations in absorption frequencies. Absorption intensities may be stronger or weaker than expected, often depending on dipole moments. Additional bands may confuse the interpretation. In very symmetrical compounds there may be fewer than the expected number of absorption bands (it is even possible that all bands of a functional group may disappear, i.e. a symmetrically substituted alkyne!). Infrared spectra are generally informative about what functional groups are present, but not always. The 'H and '*C NMR’s are often just as informative about functional groups, and sometimes even more so in this regard. Information obtained from one spectroscopic technique should be verified or expanded by consulting the other spectroscopic techniques.

Spectroscopy Data Tables 13, Similar chemical shift information presented in a different format. Remember, proton decoupled carbons appear as singlets. When carbons are coupled to their hydrogens, carbons follow the N+ rule. Methyls = q, methylenes = t, methines = d, and carbons without hydrogen appear as singlets = s. DEPT provides the same information. Carbon chemical shifts are spread out over a larger range than proton chemical shifts (they are more dispersed), so itis less likely that two different carbon] shifts will fall on top of one another.
