- Anethole, 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_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_forwardKetones undergo a reduction when treated with sodium borohydride, NaBH4. What is the structure of the compound produced by reaction of 2-butanone with NaBH4 if it has an IR absorption at 3400 cm-1 and M+=74 in the mass spectrum?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_forwardA hydrocarbon, compound B, has molecular formula C6H6, and gave an NMR spectrum with two signals: delta 6.55 pm and delta 3.84 pm with peak ratio of 2:1. When warmed in pyridine for three hr, compound B quantitatively converts to benzene. Mild hydrogenation of B yielded another compound C with mass spectrum of m/z 82. Infrared spectrum showed no double bonds; NMR spectrum showed one broad peak at delta 2.34 ppm. With this information, address the following questions. a) How many rings are in compound C? b) How many rings are probably in B? How many double bonds are in B? c) Can you suggest a structure for compounds B and C? d) In the NMR spectrum of B, the up-field signal was a quintet, and the down field signal was a triplet. How must you account for these splitting patterns?arrow_forwardShow a structure for the compound C6H8 that has the following 13C NMR spectrum and explain how you got the answer.arrow_forward
- Reaction of butanenitrile (CH3CH2CH2CN) with methylmagnesium bromide (CH3MgBr), followed by treatment with aqueous acid, forms compound G. G has a molecular ion in its mass spectrum at m/z = 86 and a base peak at m/z = 43. G exhibits a strong absorption in its IR spectrum at 1721 cm−1 and has the 1H NMR spectrum given below. What is the structure of G? We will learn about the details of this reaction in Chapter 22.arrow_forwardA student performed a reaction using 2-methoxyethanol as solvent under acid catalyst. When the solvent was redistilled, a higher boiling fraction (bp=162 °C) was also recovered. The mass spectrum showed a molecular ion at 134 m/z. The H nmr spectrum showed a triplet integrating for 2 at 3.55 ppm, a second triplet integrating for 2 at 3.65 ppm, and a singlet integrating for 3 at 3.4 ppm. Give the structure of the newly formed material that is consistent with this data.arrow_forwardA compound has a molecular formula of C8H8O The following spectra (1H NMR, Carbon 13 NMR, IR was collected.
