1. SDBS Integrated Spectral Database for Organic Compounds Sample Search for Chemistry 130 Grace Baysinger and Dr. Dave Keller

2. 2 SDBS – URL and Description http://riodb01.ibase.aist.go.jp/sdbs/cgi-bin/cre_index.cgi?lang=eng SDBS includes 6 different types of spectra under a directory of the compounds. The six spectra are:  Electron impact Mass spectrum (EI-MS),  Fourier transform infrared spectrum (FT-IR)  1 H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrum  13 C NMR spectrum  Laser Raman spectrum  Electron spin resonance (ESR) spectrum It is possible to search by number of atoms, spectral peaks, plus compound name, molecular formula, molecular weight, and CAS Registry Number.

4. 4 SDBS - Search Form Note: for each peak, a range of values is actually being searched

5. 5 Spectra Data Search Tips 13 C NMR  Search 13 C spectral peaks first as they most closely match your lab data 1 H NMR  Use midpoints of multiplets as spectral peak values  OH peaks for alcohols and acids, and NH peaks for amines may “wander” so your values may not agree with the database IR  Only include major peaks in IR search; usually < 2800 cm -1

6. 6 Spectra Data Search Tips Be sure to omit any peaks due to solvent For Chem 130, the complete range for a spectral diagram is about :  13 C NMR: 0 to ~220 ppm  IR:~700 to ~4000 cm -1  1 H NMR: 0 to ~12 ppm Add no shift regions (i.e. no peak present) to refine a 13 C or 1 H NMR search Review of General Search Strategy  Search spectral peaks using conventions required by search interface  Search 13 C NMR first, IR second, and 1 H NMR last  Refine using no shift regions for 13 C and 1 H NMR data  Further refine using heteroatom and/or hydrogen data

9. 9 SDBS 13 C NMR Search – Peaks, No Shift Regions, and Number of Atoms Use comma with no spaces for multiple peaks. For ranges use space between upper and lower values. Use comma with no spaces for multiple ranges. Peaks=128,129,130,172. No peak region=220 180,110 5 N, F, Cl, Br, I, S, P, Si not present

10. 10 SDBS - Brief Display of Results Summary of available spectra (Yes/No) Review molecular formulas and eliminate some compounds from further consideration based on heteroatoms present. Remaining compounds can be quickly compared to unknown using 1 H, 13 C,and IR spectra as well as functional groups listed in name
