Hi Dr. Starkey,I can't open the "IR problem-solving approach.doc" document in the exercise files (the error says that it's corrupted). I also have a question: will you post lectures on any of the following subjects: organometalic chemistry, UV spectroscopy, column chromatography or HPLC? If you will, could you please specify the date?
Thank you

Hi Dr. Starkey, I have been using educator. com for almost four months and its great!
Thank you very much for the great lectures. I have learned a lot. I have a question about your availability. Would be possible to talk to you about my experiments and research whenever I have questions? will you answer my questions?
Thanks a lot for your help.

The only question I have is how can you tell which compound it is?

If we have internal and symmetrical alkyne, can we differentiate from normal alkane? Because what we can get from IR spectrum is only SP3 CH no SP CH and CC triple bond.

Honestly, you are a LIFE SAVER. My O-chem prof is good but goes off on tangents. You get right to the point. Succinct. Good explanations. I really hope I pass Ochem and if I do, it'll be because of you, Professor Starkey!

Hi Dr. Starkey, awesome lectures! They are life savers!. I have a question, does it depend on the finger print region if you wanted to deduce how long the compounds is. How for example can one tell if it's a butane or a decane, or like pentanol, hexanol, or octanol. They are all sp3 CH's with an alcohol at the end. Or a benzene with a longer substituent compared to a shorter one. Thank you.
