- Ascaridole is a natural product that has been used to treat intestinal worms. Explain why the two methyls on the isopropyl group in ascaridole appear in its 1H-NMR spectrum as four lines of equal intensity, with two sets of two each separated by 7 Hz.arrow_forward3-Methyl-2-butanol has five signals in its 13C NMR spectrum at 17.90, 18.15, 20.00, 35.05, and 72.75 . Why are the two methyl groups attached to C3 nonequivalent? Making a molecular model should be helpful.arrow_forwardDraw a structure for the compound, C3H5Br, that fits the following 'H NMR data: d 2.32 (3H, singlet) ô 5.35 (1H, broad singlet) ô 5.54 (1H, broad singlet) You do not have to consider stereochemistry. You do not have to explicitly draw H atoms. In cases where there is more than one answer, just draw one. C opy aste C ChemDoodlearrow_forward
