Examine the IR spectrum provided for compound A.
The peak at ~3300 is due to residual amount of water in the sample and therefore it will not be considered.
The peaks below 1500 cannot be used to make any structural assignments because they are in the fingerprint region.
In this IR spectrum you should focus on the peak ~2900-3000.
What is this peak most likely due to?
O C-H (sp)
C-H (sp?)
C=0
C-H (sp³)
OC-O or N-0
O 0-H or N-H

Carbon spectra say a lot about the symmetry of the molecule. If two carbons in a molecule are equivalent (such as in an
isopropyl group) they only produce one signal in the spectrum. Although carbon signals cannot be integrated, the relative
size of peaks in the carbon spectrum can help determine how many equivalent carbons are present in a single signal.
Compare the number of signals in the spectrum and the number of carbons from the molecular formula for compound A.
Which of the given statements is true?
O All the carbons are nonequivalent.
O Two of the carbons are equivalent.
Three of the carbons are equivalent.
Four of the carbons are equivalent.
Evaluate the spectrum for compound A based on what you already know from the UN/DBE and IR spectrum.
Is the 13C spectrum consistent with the presence of an ether functional group?
О yes
O no
Examine the 'H spectrum of compound A.
There is a table summarizing the spectral data. Using that data, assign each peak to the type of alkyl group.
