    This document provides a chart of characteristic infrared absorption bands of common functional groups. It lists the absorption ranges in wavenumbers (cm-1) and intensities for groups such as alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, alcohols, carboxylic acids, esters, amides, and aromatics. The chart serves as a reference for interpreting infrared spectra by identifying absorption bands that correspond to specific bond vibrations in different classes of organic compounds.
