(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Isoprene units in the given set of compounds need to be circled.

Concept introduction:

Terpenes are naturally occurring compounds which share a common feature.  All terpenes are thought to be assembled from isoprene units having five carbon atoms.  So the structure of terpenes has the carbon atoms in multiples of five only.

The isoprene units are identified by following few steps namely,

  • Identify the number of isoprene units
  • Look for methyl group
  • Trial and error to find isoprene unit

To identify: the isoprene units in menthol

What spectral features allow you to differentiate the product from the starting material? Use four separate paragraphs for each set of comparisons. You should have one paragraph each devoted to MS, HNMR, CNMR and IR. 2) For MS, the differing masses of molecular ions are a popular starting point. Including a unique fragmentation is important, too. 3) For HNMR, CNMR and IR state the peaks that are different and what makes them different (usually the presence or absence of certain groups). See if you can find two differences (in each set of IR, HNMR and CNMR spectra) due to the presence or absence of a functional group. Include peak locations. Alternatively, you can state a shift of a peak due to a change near a given functional group. Including peak locations for shifted peaks, as well as what these peaks are due to. Ideally, your focus should be on not just identifying the differences but explaining them in terms of functional group changes.
