Question
A sample mixture contains a mixture of ethanol, cyclopentane, and 1-nitropropane. Using fractional distillation, the highest volume of distillate came out at 130-135 °C. After pooling these fractions, the corrected refractive index of the compound was found to be 1.4018 at 20 °C. Then the IR spectrum of the sample was taken, as shown in the picture below. Based on the experimental data, what is the identity of the unknown compound? Using the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, Spectral Databases, and or Table 21.2 in Mohrig and explain your reasoning!
