Analyzing Infrared Spectra
The electromagnetic radiation or frequency is classified into radio-waves, micro-waves, infrared, visible, ultraviolet, X-rays and gamma rays. The infrared spectra emission refers to the portion between the visible and the microwave areas of electromagnetic spectrum. This spectral area is usually divided into three parts, near infrared (14,290 – 4000 cm-1), mid infrared (4000 – 400 cm-1), and far infrared (700 – 200 cm-1), respectively. The number set is the number of the wave (cm-1).
IR Spectrum Of Cyclohexanone
It is the analysis of the structure of cyclohexaone using IR data interpretation.
IR Spectrum Of Anisole
Interpretation of anisole using IR spectrum obtained from IR analysis.
IR Spectroscopy
Infrared (IR) or vibrational spectroscopy is a method used for analyzing the particle's vibratory transformations. This is one of the very popular spectroscopic approaches employed by inorganic as well as organic laboratories because it is helpful in evaluating and distinguishing the frameworks of the molecules. The infra-red spectroscopy process or procedure is carried out using a tool called an infrared spectrometer to obtain an infrared spectral (or spectrophotometer).
![**Problem Statement:**
If a 1 g/mL solution of a mixture of compounds F and G in a 1 decimeter polarimetry cell rotates plane-polarized light 8° counterclockwise (i.e., levorotatory), which of the following is closest to the ratio of [F] : [G]?
**Chemical Compounds:**
F:
- Structure:
\[
\begin{array}{c}
\quad \quad CH_3 \\
R - C - D_3
\end{array}
\]
- Specific rotation: [α] = -10° dm⁻¹ (g/mL)⁻¹
G:
- Structure:
\[
\begin{array}{c}
H_3C - CD_3 \\
R - C
\end{array}
\]
- Note: The specific rotation is not given in the problem statement.
**Possible Ratios:**
(A) 90:10
(B) 80:20
(C) 20:80
(D) 10:90
### Explanation:
To solve this problem, understand that a 1 g/mL solution containing a mix of chiral compounds F and G rotates plane-polarized light. The specific rotation of F is provided (-10° dm⁻¹ (g/mL)⁻¹), but the specific rotation for G should be inferred given the 8° observed counterclockwise rotation.
The calculation and logical deductions from polarimetry can then be followed to deduce the closest ratio from the given options.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F3890751a-c083-48b5-a28b-4eb600d685a2%2F2d93eabf-506d-454b-9510-a46d81d52218%2Fzf5hklk_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
