The goal of this project is to upgrade and expand the undergraduate             chemistry program at Carthage College in the area of infrared                   spectrophotometry.  A Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometer will         be used by students in organic chemistry, physical chemistry,                   instrumental analysis, inorganic chemistry, and undergraduate research.         Investigations include:  delineating the effects of various molecular           substituents on characteristic group frequencies, quantitative analysis         of mixtures, structure elucidation and compound identification,                 determination of vibrational and rotational constants, and determining          effects of intercalators on secondary structure of DNA using the FT-IR          Circle Cell accessory.  Throughout, students will gain experience in            computer-controlled instrument operation and computer use of a spectral         identification library.
