(a)
Interpretation: The given set of compounds should be distinguished using high resolution mass spectroscopic technique.
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
Base peak: It is the tallest peak in the spectrum.
The
The
The
The Hydrogen Deficiency Index (HDI): It is used to measure the number of degrees of unsaturation (double and triple bonds) present in a given molecule. It is determined by using the formula
To distinguish: The given compounds using mass spectrometry.
