It-s time for molecular analysis! On this episode of Crash Course Organic Chemistry, we-re learning about mass spectrometry and infrared spectroscopy through the lens of a forensic investigation. Put on your lab coats, and let-s solve this mystery! Episode

As somebody who's already been through highschool and undergrad O-Chem, I really wish your explanation of the mass spec had gone just a TINY bit more in depth, you describe all the parts and how the ion goes through, but none of how the magnet actually separates the masses as they go around the curve. This concept is actually super intuitive.

30 minutes is a long time to get a spectra! Even after running a blank to clean out the mass spec ours takes 3. 5 minutes per run. So 7 minutes for the first spectra and 3. 5 minutes for each subsequent spectra. It's not like the machine was super expensive either I think $4K.

Just finished my PhD in structural mass spec. This is a pretty good intro! Although, at least in my field, no one really uses the magnetic sector MS instruments shown here anymore - we more often uses ToF, ion trap or orbitrap mass spectrometers.

It really pisses me off that Mass Spectrometry is bundled into spectroscopy at this level. People tend to just walk right past MS and not realize it's ---THE MOST POWERFUL ANALYTICAL TOOL WE HAVE IN CHEMISTRY---.

why isn't the host named in the text? Am I drunk? Thank you host. Where's your name? Who is this host? Why is she not named in the title or show more? Yes, I want this person to get credit. Crushi - - - - - - +

The new app does not load and when the first screen had loaded it showed that there was some error. Then I tried again and it still did not load even after 20 minutes

Organic chemists are the worst because they only care about the base peak and they ALWAYS expect the MM of their compound when this is rarely true.

Please, I want CrashCourse Neurology! It would be really cool to understand the brain, just as it was cool to understand computer science.

Hey CrashCourse! Can you do an episode on racial fetishism? I think it's an important issue to understand, especially for BLM. Thank you!

Ephedrine and pseudoephedrine will have almost identical MS and IR because they are diastereoisomers. Both can be used to make meth.
