Sample search for a sophomore level organic chemistry class showing how to search using spectral peaks and heteroatoms to identify an unknown.

This handout summarizes ways students in a sophomore level organic chemistry class can search data from the lab (e.g, heteratom information, physical properties, spectral data) in Integrated Spectral Database of Organic Compounds (SDBS), Properties of Organic Chemistry (POC), Dictionary of Organic Chemistry (DOC), Reaxys, and SciFinder.

This worksheet serves as a hands on introduction to University of Rochester River Campus Libraries course page for fall 2009 Organic Chemistry course (chm 173) for freshman. They use the free SDBS and Organic Compounds databases linked from the chm 173 course page http://www.library.rochester.edu/Subject/Chemistry/Courses (only active in the fall) to answer some simple questions. They learn about Hill order.
