Morphine, heroin, and oxycodone are three addicting analgesic narcotics. How could IR spectroscopy be used to distinguish these three compounds from each other?
The infrared spectrum of a compound is unique to the types and number of bonds in the molecule. Draw the structures of salicylic acid and aspirin. What are the key differences of the IR spectrum of aspirin with that of the starting material, salicylic acid? What are the similarities? Interpret the IR spectra of each by assigning the major peaks.
Counterfeit drugs are a common problem in developing regions of the world. Oftentimes, counterfeit pills are made with compounds such as lactose. A lab technician has obtained the IR spectrum shown above for a sample reported to be citalopram, an antidepressant drug. Does the IR spectrum belong to citalopram or lactose? Explain your answer by describing what feature of the IR spectrum confirms your choice and describe what feature is missing from the IR spectrum for the other compound.
A. citalopram
B. lactose
