The Organic Chemistry OnLine Spectroscopy Supplement consists of Proton and Carbon NMR, Infrared and Mass Spectra for 100 simple organic molecules. A brief description of the compound is give, which may contain chemical reactivity data, along with an elemental analysis for carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen. Using the Mass Spectrum to determine the molecular weight and halogen content, the student can calculate the Molecular Formula, "degrees of unsaturation", etc.

The spectra in this Supplement are reproductions based on the actual spectra, but in some cases has been "idealized" to remove solvent peaks, higher-order coupling, overlapping peaks, etc., to aid in the analysis by typical undergraduate students. These spectra should therefore NOT be taken as an analytical database, but as an undergraduate teaching tool.

All of the spectra in this Supplement, along with expanded tutorial sections are available in a workbook,
