The higher-energy near-IR, approximately 14,000–4,000 cm −1 (0.7–2.5 μm wavelength) can excite overtone or combination modes of molecular vibrations. The mid-infrared, approximately 4,000–400 cm −1 (2.5–25 μm) is generally used to study the fundamental vibrations and associated rotational–vibrational structure.

[1] [2] In physical and analytical chemistry, infrared spectroscopy (IR spectroscopy) is a technique used to identify chemical compounds based on the way infrared radiation is absorbed by the compound. The absorptions in this range do not apply only to bonds in organic molecules.
1-Octanol, also known as octan-1-ol, is the organic compound with the molecular formula CH 3 (CH 2) 7 OH. It is a fatty alcohol. Many other isomers are also known generically as octanols. 1-Octanol is manufactured for the synthesis of esters for use in perfumes and flavorings. It has a pungent odor.
The n-octanol-water partition coefficient, K ow is a partition coefficient for the two-phase system consisting of n-octanol and water. [1] K ow is also frequently referred to by the symbol P, especially in the English literature. It is also called n-octanol-water partition ratio. [2] [3] [4]
A vibration will be active in the IR if there is a change in the dipole moment of the molecule and if it has the same symmetry as one of the x, y, z coordinates. To determine which modes are IR active, the irreducible representation corresponding to x, y, and z are checked with the reducible representation of Γ vib. [4]
The values for the octanol-water system in the following table are from the Dortmund Data Bank. [ 15 ] [ better source needed ] They are sorted by the partition coefficient, smallest to largest (acetamide being hydrophilic, and 2,2',4,4',5-pentachlorobiphenyl lipophilic), and are presented with the temperature at which they were measured (which ...
A simple and important member is 1-octanol, with an unbranched chain of carbons. Other commercially important octanols are 2-octanol and 2-ethylhexanol. Some octanols occur naturally in the form of esters in some essential oils. [1]
