What characteristics of the methyl benzoate spectrum rule out an aldehyde or carboxylicacid functional group giving the absorption at 1723 cm-1?
The tabulated 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectral data acquired for an unknown compound with an atomic composition of C11H20O2is detailed below. Using this data, propose a molecular structure for the unknown compound and, based on this structure, hypothesise a molecular structure of at least one major fragment appearing in the corresponding EI mass spectrum of the unknown compound, which is shown below; 1H NMR (500 MHz, Chloroform-d) δ 5.55 (s, 1H), 5.11 (d, J = 5.8 Hz, 1H), 4.16 (q, J = 6.3 Hz, 2H), 2.22 (d, J = 6.1 Hz, 2H), 2.18 (d, J = 6.1 Hz, 2H), 2.13 (s, 3H), 1.65 (s, 3H), 1.61 (s, 3H), 1.27 (t, J = 6.3 Hz, 3H). 13C NMR (125 MHz, Common NMR Solvents) δ 166.72 (C), 158.99 (C), 131.99 (C), 123.58 (CH), 116.45 (CH), 59.71 (CH2), 38.94 (CH2), 26.53 (CH2), 24.98 (CH3), 19.87 (CH3), 18.90 (CH3), 14.53 (CH3).
Using the attached infrared spectroscopy spectrum for the compound Ethyl Pentanoate, identify the functional group and any observed characteristic absorbtions in cm-1. Compare with the attached roadmap for interpreting IR spectra.
N-propylbenzene, C6H5CH2CH3, contains C (sp3) -H and C (sp2) -H bonds. Its IR spectrum shows strong or medium absorptions at 3085, 3064, 3028, 2960, 2931 and 2873 cm ^ -1, as well as bands below 1600cm -1. Which statement is wrong? A.) Stretching of the C (sp3) -H bonds results in absorptions at lower wave numbers than the stretching of the C (sp2) -H bonds. B.) The absorptions at 2960, 2931 and 2873 cm ^ -1 are assigned to stretching of the C (sp3) -H bonds. C.) The absorptions at 3085, 3064 and 3028 cm ^ -1they are assigned to stretching of the C (sp2) -H bonds. D.) Each absorption can be assigned to the stretch mode of a particular bond in the propylbenzene molecule.

Explain the appearance of the 1H-NMR spectrum of 1,1,2-trichloroethane. How many signals would you expect, and into how many peaks will each of the signals be split?
The 13C NMR spectrum of ethanoic acid (acetic acid) shows a quartet centred at δ = 21 with a splitting of 130 Hz. When the same spectrum is recorded using proton decoupling, the multiplet collapses to a single line. Another quartet, but with a much smaller spacing, is also seen centred at δ =178; this quartet collapses when decoupling is used. Explain these observations.
