Chapter 13.13, Problem 13.29P
A bottle of allyl bromide was found to contain a large amount of an impurity. A careful distillation separated the impurity, which has the molecular formula C3H6O. The folowing 13C NMR spectrum of the impurity was obtained:
- a. Propose a structure for this impurity.
- b. Assign the peaks in the 13C NMR spectrum to the carbon atoms in the structure.
- c. Suggest how this impunty arose in the allyl bromide sample.
