This lecture covers the fundamentals of infrared spectroscopy, including the observation of energy associated with chemical bond vibrations, the interpretation of infrared spectra for organic functional groups, and the analysis of stretching and bending vibrations in different types of compounds. The instructor explains how to interpret an IR spectrum, highlighting characteristic vibrations for various functional groups and providing examples of common compounds. Emphasis is placed on the distinction between stretching and bending vibrations, as well as the energy requirements for different types of molecular deformations.
