Chapter 12, Problem 12.13P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether the spectra shows IR stretching frequency of $\text{2-methyl-1-octene}$, butyl methyl ether or $\text{1-pentanol}$ is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Infrared spectroscopy deals with the infrared region ranging from $4000{\text{cm}}^{-1}\text{to}670{\text{cm}}^{-1}$ of electromagnetic spectrum. It is measured in wavenumber. It shows two types of sharp absorption bands in electromagnetic spectrum for functional groups. Each functional group absorbs at different frequency.
