The structure for an alcohol with molecular formula C 5 H 12 O having 1 H NMR spectrum is to be proposed and chemical shifts and splitting pattern are to be assigned. Concept introduction: Few elements such as 13 C and 1 H have nuclei behaving as magnets about an axis, are placed in magnetic field irradiated with electromagnetic energy of specific frequency, the nuclei tend to absorb energy via magnetic resonance. There is a graph that shows energy absorption frequencies and intensities of a sample kept in the magnetic field called nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). Chemical shift is the measurement on δ scale (in ppm) where the peaks occur when the nuclei absorb energy through magnetic resonance. NMR resonance generally splits into N + 1 peaks, where N is the number of hydrogen atoms on the adjacent atoms. If there is no hydrogen present on the adjacent atom, then resonance will be singlet. If there is one hydrogen present, then resonance will split into two peaks or have doublets. Two hydrogen on adjacent atoms splits into three peaks, a triplet and so on.

Name the following compounds A and B. How could you distinguish these two molecules by using 1H NMR and IR techniques? Propose an analytical technique to determine the iron content of these compounds. Calculate the mass percentages of C and H of compound B (C: 12.01 g/mol; H: 1.008 g/mol; Fe: 55.845 g/mol).

The IR and 1H-NMR spectra of a compound with molecular formula C4H7ClO2 are shown below. Your objective as a group is to propose a structure for this compound, explaining how you reach your decision. Using all the information you have been given, in a post with others in your group share your initial ideas about the possible structure of the compound. Then use comments to interact with the other students in the group and propose a final answer to the problem. In the comment phase, you should comment on the postings of at least two other students.

1) They were given a mysterious chemical by ASP Rinuprasad, coded as Compound X, which was believed to be a forbidden drug smuggled through KLIA airport. Little they know about the chemical from the convict. As competent officers, together they decided to run several spectroscopic and analytical tests to determine the molecular structure of Compound X. They managed to obtain the spectra and data of IR, 'H NMR (400 MHz in CDCI 3), 13C and DEPT (100.6 MHz in CDC13), COSY, HMQC, HMBC, mass spectrometry and elemental analyses. Determine the molecular structure and name of Compound X.
