Interpretation:
Given that spectroscopic analysis of compound A with formula C5H10O yields the following data:
IR: 3400cm-1; 1640 cm-1
1HNMR: 1.63 δ (3H, singlet); 1.70 δ (3H, singlet); 3.83 δ (1H, broad singlet); 4.15 δ (2H, doublet, J =7Hz); 5.70 δ (1H,triplet, J=7Hz).
i) How many double bonds and/or rings are there in A has is to be stated. ii) The identity of the oxygen containing functional group is to be derived from IR spectral data. iii) The protons responsible for the NMR data listed are to be identified. iv) A structure for the compound A is to be proposed.
Concept introduction:
In IR the O-H stretching of alcohols and phenols are observed in the range 3200-3550 cm-1. The C=C stretching is observed in the range 1620-1680 cm-1. In 1HNMR spectrum, the alcoholic proton absorption occurs in the range 3.4 δ - 4.5 δ while that of phenolic proton occur in the range 3.0 to 8.0. The
The absorption due to 10 alkyl group (CH3) is seen around 0.7 δ - 1.3 δ, that due to a 20 alkyl group (CH2) is seen around 1.2 δ - 1.6 δ while that due to 30 alkyl group (CH) is seen around 1.4 δ - 1.8 δ The multiplicity of a signal gives an idea about the protons present in the adjacent carbons.
To state:
The number of the double bonds and/or rings in the compound A.
To identity:
The oxygen containing functional group from IR spectral data and the protons responsible for the NMR data listed.
To propose:
A structure for the compound A.
