Interpretation:
Given that at room temperature the 1HNMR spectrum of N,N-dimethylformamide shows three peaks at 2.9 δ (singlet, 3H), 3.0 δ (singlet, 3H) and 8.0 δ (singlet, 1H). With increase in temperature the two singlets at 2.9 δ and 3.0 δ slowly merge together. At 180oC, the 1HNMR spectrum shows only two peaks at 2.95 δ (singlet, 6H) and 8.0 δ (singlet, 1H). This temperature dependence behavior is to be explained.
Concept introduction:
If two methyl groups attached to an atom in a single bond are non-equivalent because of a barrier to rotation of a single bond then the two methyl groups will give separate signals in 1HNMR. However if the barrier is not there, free rotation becomes possible, the methyl groups become inter-convertible and the two signals will merge to a single signal.
To explain:
The temperature dependence behavior observed in the 1HNMR spectrum of N,N-dimethylformamide is to be explained.

- (15 pts) Consider the molecule B2H6. Generate a molecular orbital diagram but this time using a different approach that draws on your knowledge and ability to put concepts together. First use VSEPR or some other method to make sure you know the ground state structure of the molecule. Next, generate an MO diagram for BH2. Sketch the highest occupied and lowest unoccupied MOs of the BH2 fragment. These are called frontier orbitals. Now use these frontier orbitals as your basis set for producing LGO's for B2H6. Since the BH2 frontier orbitals become the LGOS, you will have to think about what is in the middle of the molecule and treat its basis as well. Do you arrive at the same qualitative MO diagram as is discussed in the book? Sketch the new highest occupied and lowest unoccupied MOs for the molecule (B2H6).arrow_forwardQ8: Propose an efficient synthesis of cyclopentene from cyclopentane.arrow_forwardQ7: Use compound A-D, design two different ways to synthesize E.
