Grinard Reaction with Aldehyde:

1.What peak in the IR spectrum most clearly demonstrates the presence of alcohol products? If the product had unreacted aldehyde remaining, what IR peak would indicate the presence of this contaminant?

 

2. (a) What peaks in the NMR spectrum most clearly demonstrate the presence of the predicted product ,1-(4-methoxypenyl)-methylpropan-1-ol?

 

 (b) If the product had unreacted aldehyde remaining, what NMR peak would indicate the presence of this contaminant?

 

3. Draw a Newman projection along C(1)-C(2), with the HO group attached to C(1). Are the two methyl groups equivalent? What evidence do you find from the NMR spectrum to support your conclusion?
