SPECTRA PROBLEMSHINTS for PROBLEM #2
- Find the molecular weight from molecular ion in the mass spectrum
- What functional groups are present from the IR ?
- Count the number of types of C in the 13 C-nmr
- Look at the integration in the H-nmr
- Use the above to get the molecular formula (make sure it matches the MW)
- Use the coupling patterns in the H-nmr to identify the hydrocarbon "pieces"
- What is the 1H, singlet in the H-nmr ? (what did the IR show ?)
