Infrared spectroscopy correlation table

<p>An infrared spectroscopy correlation table (or table of infrared absorption frequencies) is a list of absorption peaks and frequencies, typically reported in <a href="/facts/Wavenumber/cLaLAeW5">wavenumber</a>, for common types of <a href="/facts/Molecular_bond/EzMLf3Pz">molecular bonds</a> and <a href="/facts/Functional_groups/GXkSPsjM">functional groups</a>. In <a href="/facts/Physical_chemistry/WqwnJjRM">physical</a> and <a href="/facts/Analytical_chemistry/MHQf3YP6">analytical chemistry</a>, <a href="/facts/Infrared_spectroscopy/u1Hzx617">infrared spectroscopy</a> (IR spectroscopy) is a technique used to identify <a href="/facts/Chemical_compound/37FXqqtv">chemical compounds</a> based on the way <a href="/facts/Infrared/44XdJNcc">infrared radiation</a> is absorbed by the compound.
</p><p>The absorptions in this range do not apply only to bonds in organic molecules. IR spectroscopy is useful when it comes to analysis of inorganic compounds (such as <a href="/facts/Metal_complex/1tCyeQUm">metal complexes</a>  or fluoromanganates) as well.
