Draw the two intermediates, including resonance structures, for the attack of nitronium ion on pyrrole. Which position is favored? Why?
Show the effect of conjugation on the carbonyl absorption in an IR spectrum ?
Explain why a carbonyl absorption shifts to lower frequency in an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compound—a compound having a carbonyl group bonded directly to a carbon–carbon double bond. For example, the carbonyl absorption occurs at 1720 cm−1 for cyclohexanone, and at 1685 cm−1 for cyclohex-2-enone.

- In addition to α cleavage, some aldehydes and ketones undergo the McLafferty rearrangement. In the McLafferty rearrangement, a hydrogen on a carbon three atoms from the C=O is transferred to the carbonyl oxygen and a carbon–carbon bond is broken. This process forms an alkene and the radical cation derived from an enol, which appears as a fragment in the mass spectrum.a.Draw the products formed from the McLafferty rearrangement of 1phenylpentan-1-one, and identify the fragment that results in the given mass spectrum.arrow_forwardUse the observed 1H NMR data to decide whether C and its dianion are aromatic, antiaromatic, or not aromatic.
