- Compound H (C8H6O3) gives a precipitate when treated with hydroxylamine in aqueous ethanol and a silver mirror when treated with Tollens solution. Following is its 1H-NMR spectrum. Deduce the structure of compound H.arrow_forwardCompound I (C11H14O2) is insoluble in water, aqueous acid, and aqueous NaHCO3, but dissolves readily in 10% Na2CO3 and 10% NaOH. When these alkaline solutions are acidified with 10% HCl, compound I is recovered unchanged. Given this information and its 1H-NMR spectrum, deduce the structure of compound I.arrow_forwardAnethole, C10H12O, a major constituent of the oil of anise, has the 1H NMR spectrum shown. On oxidation with Na2Cr2O7, anethole yields p-methoxybenzoic acid. What is the structure of anethole? Assign all peaks in the NMR spectrum, and account for the observed splitting patterns.arrow_forward
- Phenacetin, a substance formerly used in over-the-counter headache remedies, has the formula C10H13NO2. Phenacetin is neutral and does not dissolve in either acid or base. When warmed with aqueous NaOH, phenacetin yields an amine, C8H11NO, whose 1H NMR spectrum is shown. When heated with HI, the amine is cleaved to an aminophenol, C6H7NO. What is the structure of phenacetin, and what are the structures of the amine and the aminophenol?arrow_forwardPropose a structural formula for the analgesic phenacetin, molecular formula C10H13NO2, based on its 1H-NMR spectrum.arrow_forwardPhenacetin is an analgesic compound having molecular formula C10H13NO2. Once a common component in over-the-counter pain relievers such as APC (aspirin, phenacetin, caffeine), phenacetin is no longer used because of its liver toxicity. Deduce the structure of phenacetin from its 1H NMR and IR spectra.arrow_forward
- Reaction of p-cresol with two equivalents of 2-methylprop-1-ene affords BHT, a preservative with molecular formula C15H24O. BHT gives the following 1H NMR spectral data: 1.4 (singlet, 18 H), 2.27 (singlet, 3 H), 5.0 (singlet, 1 H), and 7.0 (singlet, 2 H) ppm. What is the structure of BHT? Draw a stepwise mechanism illustrating how it is formed.arrow_forwardReaction of p-cresol with two equivalents of 2-methylprop-1-ene affordsBHT, a preservative with molecular formula C15H24O.

Propose a structure for a compound CH12O2 that dissolves in dilute NAOH and shows the following 'H NMR spectrum: 1.08 8 (9H, singlet), 2.2 8 (2H, singlet), and 11.2 8 (1H, singlet).arrow_forward
- Propose a structure for a compound, C10H14, that fits the following 1H NMR data. δ1.30, 9H, singlet δ7.30, 5H, singletarrow_forwardWhen acetonitrile is treated with concentrated sulfuric acid and tert-butanol, followed by water, a product is formed whose 'H NMR spectrum exhibits the following three signals: singlet, 1.3 ppm, 9 H; singlet, 2.0 ppm, 3 H; and broad singlet, 8.2 ppm, 1 H. Its IR spectrum exhibits one broad absorption of medium intensity between 3300 and 3500 cm-1, and a narrow, intense absorption near 1650 cm¯1. A key intermediate is shown. Draw the structure of the product, and draw the complete, detailed mechanism for the reaction. CH3 CH3 H2SO4 (conc) H2O ? + H3C H3C H3C-C=Ñ-c `CH3 CH3 HOarrow_forwardAs a method for the synthesis of cinnamaldehyde (3-phenyl-2-propenal), a chemist treated 3-phenyl-2-propen-1-ol with K2Cr2O7 in sulfuric acid. The product obtained from the reaction gave a signal at δ5 in its 13C NMR spectrum. Alternatively, when the chemist treated 3-phenyl-2-propen-1-ol with PCC in CH2Cl2, the 13C NMR spectrum of the product displayed a signal at δ193.8. (All other signals in the spectra of both compounds appeared at similar chemical shifts.) (a) Which reaction produced cinnamaldehyde? (b) What was the other product?arrow_forward
