(A true story.) A drug user responded to an ad placed by a DEA informant in a drug-culture magazine. He later flew fromColorado to Maryland, where he bought some 1-phenyl-2-propanone (P2P) from the informant. The police waited nearlya month for the suspect to synthesize something, then obtained a search warrant, and searched the residence. They foundthe unopened bottle of P2P; apparently, the suspect was not a good chemist and was unable to follow the instructions theinformant gave him. They also found pipes and bongs with residues of marijuana and cocaine, plus a bottle of methylamine hydrochloride, some muriatic acid (dilute HCl), zinc strips, flasks, and other equipment.(a) Assume you are consulting for the police. Show what synthesis the suspect was prepared to carry out, to provideprobable cause for the charge of attempting to manufacture a controlled substance.(b) Assume you are a member of the jury. Would you convict the defendant of attempting to manufacture a controlledsubstance?
Analyzing Infrared Spectra
The electromagnetic radiation or frequency is classified into radio-waves, micro-waves, infrared, visible, ultraviolet, X-rays and gamma rays. The infrared spectra emission refers to the portion between the visible and the microwave areas of electromagnetic spectrum. This spectral area is usually divided into three parts, near infrared (14,290 – 4000 cm-1), mid infrared (4000 – 400 cm-1), and far infrared (700 – 200 cm-1), respectively. The number set is the number of the wave (cm-1).
IR Spectrum Of Cyclohexanone
It is the analysis of the structure of cyclohexaone using IR data interpretation.
IR Spectrum Of Anisole
Interpretation of anisole using IR spectrum obtained from IR analysis.
IR Spectroscopy
Infrared (IR) or vibrational spectroscopy is a method used for analyzing the particle's vibratory transformations. This is one of the very popular spectroscopic approaches employed by inorganic as well as organic laboratories because it is helpful in evaluating and distinguishing the frameworks of the molecules. The infra-red spectroscopy process or procedure is carried out using a tool called an infrared spectrometer to obtain an infrared spectral (or spectrophotometer).
