Wavenumbers (cm-1)
Element of unsaturation (show your calculation):
Possible functional groups:
Note that the peak at 1742.71 cm', which suggests a functional group that is higher priority than ketonelaldehyde.
There is something else we know about the structure of this molecule:
It contains a 3 carbon chain (CH3CH2CH2-)...please note that your final structure below must have this chain. O
From the information above, including what you have deduced from the IR spectrum, provide your determination of
