USEFUL QUAL CHEM WWW SITES

Remember that it is not sufficient to match spectral data with literature sepctra.  The spectral data of your compound must be interpreted.  In addition, spectra may look different if run under different conditions (i.e. solvent, resolution of the IR, power of the NMR magnet). Also, be aware that some of the assignments on these data bases are incorrect.  

Any data obtained from websites must be cited in both your lab notes and in your report.
