- 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_forwardThymol (molecular formula C10H14O) is the major component of the oil ofthyme. Thymol shows IR absorptions at 3500–3200, 3150–2850, 1621, and1585 cm−1. The 1H NMR spectrum of thymol is given below. Propose apossible structure for thymol.arrow_forwardA compound of formula C6H10O2 shows only two absorptions in the proton NMR: a singlet at 2.67 ppm and a singlet at2.15 ppm. These absorptions have areas in the ratio 2:3. The IR spectrum shows a strong absorption at 1708 cm-1. Proposea structure for this compound.arrow_forward
- Compound B of molecular formula C9H19N shows a noteworthy infrared absorption at 3300 cm-1. Its 1H-NMR spectrum shows three singlets – δ 1.0 (6H), 1.1 (12H), 1.4 (1H) ppm. Its 13C-NMR spectrum has four signals – δ 25, 28, 41, 64 ppm.
