- Compound 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_forwardCompound A, C8H10O, has the IR and 1H NMR spectra shown. Propose a structure consistent with the observed spectra, and label each peak in the NMR spectrum. Note that the absorption at 5.5 î disappears when D2O is added.arrow_forward
- Based on the following H NMR and IR spectrums, what is the structure of C9H8O4?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_forward3-Chlorocyclopropene, on treatment with AgBF4, gives a precipitate of AgCl and a stable solution of a product that shows a single 1H NMR absorption at 11.04 δ. What is a likely structure for the products, and what is its relation to HĂ¼ckel’s rule?arrow_forward
- Nitriles, R–=C≡N, undergo a hydrolysis reaction when heated with aqueous acid. What is the structure of the compound produced by hydrolysis of propanenitrile, CH3CH2C≡N, if it has IR absorptions from 2500–3100 cm-1 and at 1710 cm-1, and has M+=74?arrow_forwardThe 1H and 13C NMR spectra below belong to a compound with formula C6H10O2. Propose a structure for this compound.arrow_forwardCompound 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_forward
