Solution to Q6

 

6) Which one of the four molecules can produce the proton spectrum shown? The relative areas of each set of peaks is shown on the top.

a) CH3CH2CHOHCH3

b) CH3CH2CH2CH2OH

c) CH3CH2OCH2CH3

d) CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2OH

Give the number of sets of peaks for each structural formula given below. Give the number of spikes for the hydrogen represented with the *.

e) CH3CH*2CHOHCH3 The number of sets of spikes is 5. Hydrogen * has 5 spikes in the set

f) CH3CH2CH*2CH2OH The number of sets of spikes is 5. Hydrogen * has 5 spikes in the set

g) CH3CH2OCH*2CH3 The number of sets of spikes is 2 Hydrogen* has 4 spikes in the set

h) CH*2CHCH2CH2OH The number of sets of spikes is 5 Hydrogen * has 2 spikes in the set
