Chapter SRP, Problem 24P

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The structure is to be proposed for the compound $\text{Z}$, with molecular formula ${\text{C}}_8{\text{H}}_{\text{16}}$.

Concept introduction:

In $\text{NMR}$ spectroscopy, the proton nuclear magnetic resonance ${(}^{\text{1}}\text{H}\text{NMR)}$ is used to find out the structure of molecules, with the help of ${}^{\text{1}}\text{H}$ atom within the molecules.

The splitting of the molecules is determined by the $\text{(n}+1)$ peaks in a $\text{NMR}$ resonance in which $\text{n}$ is the number of hydrogens on the adjacent atom.
