## Identification of Monosubstituted Alkyl Benzene using IR Spectroscopy

The following IR spectra (A, B, C, and D) represent different arenes. The task is to determine which one likely belongs to a monosubstituted alkyl benzene. 

### Analysis of Spectra

#### Spectrum A
- Peaks: 
  - 3028 cm^-1 (aromatic C-H stretch)
  - 2920 cm^-1 (alkyl C-H stretch)
  - 1605, 1496, 1451 cm^-1 (aromatic C=C stretches)
  - 1379 cm^-1 (CH3 deformation)
  - 729, 696 cm^-1 (out-of-plane aromatic C-H bending)

#### Spectrum B
- Peaks: 
  - 3061, 2961 cm^-1 (aromatic and alkyl C-H stretches)
  - 1601, 1590 cm^-1 (aromatic C=C stretches)
  - 1473 cm^-1 (C-H bend)
  - 1071 cm^-1 (C-O stretch)
  - 770, 681 cm^-1 (out-of-plane aromatic C-H bending)
  - 400 cm^-1 (unknown)

#### Spectrum C
- Peaks: 
  - 3061, 2962 cm^-1 (aromatic and alkyl C-H stretches)
  - 1597 cm^-1 (aromatic C=C stretches)
  - 1481 cm^-1 (C-H bend)
  - 1031 cm^-1 (C-O stretch)
  - 745 cm^-1 (out-of-plane aromatic C-H bending)
  - 430 cm^-1 (unknown)

#### Spectrum D
- Peaks: 
  - 3081, 2961 cm^-1 (aromatic and alkyl C-H stretches)
  - 1614 cm^-1 (aromatic C=C stretches)
  - 1487 cm^-1, others (C-H bend)
  - 801 cm^-1 (out-of-plane aromatic C-H bending)
  - 478 cm^-1 (unknown)

### Identifying Monosubstituted Alkyl Benzene

**Monosubstituted alkyl benzenes** typically show:
- Aromatic C-H stretching around 3030 cm^-1
- Alkyl C-H stretching around 2920 cm^-1
