Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The reasonable structure of the compound having a molecular formula
Concept introduction:
For identifying the correct structures from the given IR spectrum, the first step is to calculate the IHD from the given molecular formula of a compound. The IHD accounts for the number of rings or multiple bonds the structure could possess. A benzene ring has an IHD of 4, which accounts for the three double bonds plus a ring. The next step would be analyzing the given IR spectrum for:
1) The number of stretching modes (above
2) Look especially for the presence or absence of peaks for
