Chapter 14.12, Problem 27CC
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The fragmentation pattern in given mass spectra should be matched with their respective compounds.

Concept Introduction:

Mass spectroscopy: It is a form of spectroscopic technique which is used for the elucidation of the molecular formula and molecular weight of the compound, depending upon the mass of the molecule.

Molecular formula: It represents the types of atoms with their total number present in a given molecule.

Molecular ion peak (M)+· : It is defined as the heaviest peak in the IR spectrum of the molecule which represents the largest molecular ion in the given molecule with greater m/z value.

Base peak: It is the tallest peak in the spectrum.

The (M+1)+· peak: It denotes the peak that arises next to molecular ion peak in the mass spectrum. The peak arises due to the presence of the isotope of carbon since carbon has one isotope (13C).

The (M+1)+· peak in mass spectroscopy is used to explain the number of carbon atoms present in a molecule depending on the abundance of (M+1)+· peak.

The (M+2)+· peak: It denotes the peak that arises next to molecular ion peak in the mass spectrum with respect to the presence of major isotopes in the molecule especially it is used to find the presence of chlorine and bromine since they has two isotopes.

Isotopes: The elements with same atomic number but with different mass number are said to be isotopes of each other.

To match: The given spectrum with the given compounds.

Complete the following esterification reactions by drawing the line formulas of the carboxylic acid and alcohol required to form the ester shown. catalyst catalyst catalyst apricot fragrance
Show the saponification products of the following ester: You don't need to draw in the Na+ cation. catalyst, A catalyst, A catalyst, A
What would happen if the carboxylic acid and alcohol groups were on the same molecule? In essence, the molecule reacts with itself. Draw the structure of the products formed in this manner using the reactants below. If two functional groups interact with one another on the same molecule, this is called an “intramolecular" (within one) rather than "intermolecular" (between two or more) attack.
