Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Of the four aldehyde structures that fits best with the IR spectrum given is to be chosen.

Concept introduction:

Aldehydes and ketones show a strong absorption band in IR from 1660-1770 cm^-1. Aldehydes show two characteristic C-H absorptions between 2700-2760 cm^-1 and 2800-2860 cm^-1. Saturated aldehydes absorb near 1730 cm^-1 while aromatic aldehydes and α, β- unsaturated aldehydes absorb near 1705 cm^-1.

To choose:

The structure, out of the four given, which fits best with the IR spectrum given.

Explanation of Solution

Structures (a) and (c) represent those of α, β- unsaturated ketones which will show an IR absorption at 1705 cm^-1. The compound has the carbonyl absorption at 1727 cm^-1. So these two structures do not represent the compound...
