Fourier Transform IR for the Undergraduate Chemistry Curriculum

FTIR将被纳入普通化学、有机和 高等有机化学，物理化学，无机 化学，和独立研究（定向研究）。 的 仪器将用于一般化学分析气体 在洛杉矶的烟雾中。 在有机和先进的有机 化学实验室，该仪器将用于 表征来自各种实验的产品，包括 多步合成序列。 在物理化学中， 仪器将测量HCl的基本吸收带 而无机实验室将研究CO伸缩带 对各种羰基化合物的研究 该仪器还将看到 在我们大量招收的本科生研究中， 独立学习（Independent Study） 受资助者将符合NSF 来自非联邦来源的奖励。

FTIR will be incorporated into general chemistry, organic and advanced organic chemistry, physical chemistry, inorganic chemistry, and independent study (directed research). The instrument will be used in general chemistry to analyze gases in Los Angeles smog. In the organic and advanced organic chemistry laboratories, the instrument will be used to characterize products from various experiments, including multistep synthetic sequences. In physical chemistry the instrument will measure the fundamental absorption bands of HCl while the inorganic laboratory will study CO stretching bands on various carbonyl compounds. The instrument will also see considerable use in our heavily enrolled undergraduate research courses (independent study). The grantee will match tne NSF award from non-Federal sources.
