- Compound 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_forwardCompound 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_forwardReaction of p-cresol with two equivalents of 2-methylprop-1-ene affords BHT, a preservative with molecular formula C15H24O. BHT gives the following 1H NMR spectral data: 1.4 (singlet, 18 H), 2.27 (singlet, 3 H), 5.0 (singlet, 1 H), and 7.0 (singlet, 2 H) ppm. What is the structure of BHT? Draw a stepwise mechanism illustrating how it is formed.arrow_forward
- When a compound with molecular formula C11H14O2 undergoes acid-catalyzed hydrolysis, one of the products that is isolated gives the following 1H NMR spectrum. Identify the compound.arrow_forwardPlease Annotate the 1H NMR and 13C NMR. The structure is Cyclopentanone C5H8O :)arrow_forwardReaction of aldehyde D with amino alcohol E in the presence of NaH forms F (molecular formula C11H15NO2). F absorbs at 1730 cm−1 in its IR spectrum. F also shows eight lines in its 13C NMR spectrum, and gives the following 1H NMR spectrum: 2.32 (singlet, 6 H), 3.05 (triplet, 2 H), 4.20 (triplet, 2 H), 6.97 (doublet, 2 H), 7.82 (doublet, 2 H), and 9.97 (singlet, 1 H) ppm. Propose a structure for F. We will learn about this reaction in Chapter 18.arrow_forward
