The IR spectrum shows a peak at #"1720 cm"^(-1)#, and the #""^(1) "H"# #"NMR"# shows a doublet near #"1.10 ppm"#, a singlet at #"2.10 ppm"#, and a septet at #"2.50 ppm"#. What is the compound?
1 Answer
The compound is 3-methyl-2-butanone.
Explanation:
To begin with the IR-abosorption,
The molecule of
Then, let's proceed to the NMR spectrum.
[1] A peak near
[2] A peak at
[3] The fact that the peak at
Therefore, the structure will be
