- Compound I (C11H14O2) is insoluble in water, aqueous acid, and aqueous NaHCO3, but dissolves readily in 10% Na2CO3 and 10% NaOH. When these alkaline solutions are acidified with 10% HCl, compound I is recovered unchanged. Given this information and its 1H-NMR spectrum, deduce the structure of compound I.arrow_forwardKetones undergo a reduction when treated with sodium borohydride, NaBH4. What is the structure of the compound produced by reaction of 2-butanone with NaBH4 if it has an IR absorption at 3400 cm-1 and M+=74 in the mass spectrum?arrow_forwardThymol (molecular formula C10H14O) is the major component of the oil ofthyme. Thymol shows IR absorptions at 3500–3200, 3150–2850, 1621, and1585 cm−1. The 1H NMR spectrum of thymol is given below. Propose apossible structure for thymol.arrow_forward

Deduce the structure of P from its 1H and 13C NMR spectra.arrow_forwardA compound with molecular formula C3H8O produces a broad signal between 3200 and 3600 cm³¹ in its IR spectrum and produces two signals in its 13C NMR spectrum. Draw the structure of the compound. Draw Your Solutionarrow_forwardCompound A has molecular formula C7H7X. Its 1H-NMR spectrum shows a singlet at 2.26 ppm and two doublets, one at 6.95 ppm and one at 7.28 ppm. The singlet has an integral of three and the doublets each have an integral of two. Its 13C-NMR shows five signals. The mass spectrum of A shows a peak at m/z = 170 and another peak at m/z = 172; the relative height of the two peaks is 1:1 respectively. - Identify what atom X is, explaining your reasoning - Identify Compound A, explaining your reasoning Compound A is treated with a mixture of nitric and sulfuric acids to generate Compound B. The 1H-NMR spectrum of B shows two singlets, one at 2.52 pm and one at 8.13 ppm. The 13C-NMR spectrum of B shows five signals. The mass spectrum of B shows a peak at m/z = 260 and another peak at m/z = 262; the relative height of the two peaks is 1:1 respectively. - Identify compound B, explaining your reasoning Compound B is treated with sodium ethoxide to generate compound C.
