Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The prominent IR absorptions and mass spectral peaks expected for the compound given are to be stated.
Concept introduction:
In the mass spectrum of organic compounds, normally peaks due to Mc Lafferty rearrangement and α cleavage are generally visible. In Mc Lafferty rearrangement, aldehydes and ketones that have hydrogens on the γ carbons transfer the hydrogen on the carbon to the carbonyl oxygen and the bond between the α and β carbons is broken to yield an
To state:
The prominent IR absorptions and mass spectral peaks expected for the compound given.
