IR Spectroscopy Kahoot

Mass Spectrometry Kahoot

Mass Spectrometry Jeopardy Review (Must use UCF email to access file)

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (Chapter 15)
This video provides a great example of how to approach structure elucidation using H-NMR graph.
Organic Structure Elucidation (Chapters 14 and 15)

CU Boulder Spectroscopy Problems (structure elucidation using IR, H-NMR, and molecular formula)

University of Calgary Interactive Spectroscopy (structure elucidation using all of the spectroscopy techniques learned in lecture)

Spectroscopy Tutorial J. Philip Bays Saint Mary’s College (IR tutorial, IR problems, IR and NMR problems, and spectra problems)


Exam 2 (Chapters 16, 17, and 18)
