pick spectrum type desired, click on an element and its spectrum instantly appears above the table!  And isn't that table colorful! I like it so much I repeated this listing

spectra for the light elements shown at left and some heavier ones

very useful introduction with selected spectra illustrating characteristic functional group absorptions

http://www.chemguide.co.uk/analysis/ir/background.html#top

a really fine introduction to IR by Jim Clark, retired head of science at the Truro School in Cornwall. Designed to prepare UK students for their A-level exams, it's of great value to anyone needing an orientation to IR.

http://orgchem.colorado.edu/hndbksupport/irtutor/tutorial.html

Really fine -- the kind I would have liked to have written -- if only I had the time! Covers the major functional groups with annotated spectra showing characteristic peaks. A winner!

Chime-based IR spectral site by Robert J. Lancashire at the University of the West Indies, Mona, Jamaica

http://wwwchem.uwimona.edu.jm:1104/spectra/iranim/index.html

An alternate version of this site by Paul Lahti, Allison Rafuse, Eric Motyka at U. Mass and Robert Lancashire at UWI Mona is at
http://www.chem.umass.edu/~nermmw/Spectra/irspectra/index.htm

I have it on good authority [RJL] that clicking on a peak in the IR will load a Chime animation file of the corresponding vibrational mode. Unfortunately, I have not yet been able to access the site to see for myself. Apparently there are firewall issues at my end.
The U. Mass version works great -- I particularly recommend seeing p-xylene doing its sexy little shimmy!

http://www.mpcfaculty.net/ron_rinehart/12A/IR/default.htm

has the sites listed above and more, as well as a "Primary Clues" page with the main characteristic IR absorptions for common functional groups linked to drawings of the typical peaks and the summary self-test seen at the left.

I've seen comments by others saying that for spectra searching, this site was the most useful they had visited 

http://webexhibits.org/pigments/

I found this great site during a Google search for the structure of Prussian blue. Organized by pigment color, ths site gives overview, history, chemical name, formula, rotating 3-D model [non-Chime, unfortunately], crystal system, prep methods, links to Raman spectra, and other info for 42 paint pigments.

Roma Oakes is a postgraduate student of chemistry at 
The School of Chemistry, Queen's University of Belfast . 
Her research involves using computational chemistry techniques (in particular, Density Functional Theory) to help to explain and interpret the Raman spectra and vibrational modes of various molecular systems. And her attractively laid-out web site has many useful spectroscopy, Chime, and other chemistry links, including one to this very page!

another one of those "This is the way I should have done it" sites -- a winner!

http://www.chem.uni-potsdam.de/tools/index.html

Has "Wizards" for ¹H-NMR, IR, and MS and a ¹³C-NMR database; the  wizards displays possible groups corresponding to the chemical shift, frequency, or m/e entered. Also useful data on NMR solvents and other goodies. Auf englisch oder deutsch, natürlich.

"...online workbook  developed for senior undergraduate and graduate students learning to solve the structures of organic compounds from spectroscopic data. Most problems contain an IR spectrum (film or KBr pellet), a 500 MHz ¹H NMR spectrum, a 125 MHz ¹³C NMR spectrum, and a 70 eV electron ionization Mass Spectrum...."
64 problems classified by degree of difficulty -- a winner!

http://www.chem.ucla.edu/~webspectra/

75 problems, all with ¹H and ¹³C spectra, some with additional spectral information. Also has useful links. Another definite winner.
