Welcome to the School of Chemistry's spectroscopy resource pages for schools. These pages aim to provide 'A' level students and teachers with a full set of spectroscopic data for simple organic compounds with different functional groups.

Our spectroscopic resources

• Mass spectrometry and its ionisation techniques - a  brief explanation.
