Question

Analyze the spectra and summarize the data from each by producing a table, and determine the structure of the product.

The table for the IR spectrum should have heading including frequency/wavenumbers, bond responsible, and mode of vibration.

The table for NMR should include chemical shift  ( value), the splitting, the number of neighbors, the integration, and the assignment of the specific protons responsible for the absorptions.

Explanation / Answer

IR spectra:

Hence the structure of the compound based on IR spectra is p-cymene.

NMR spectra:

Hence the structure of the compound based on NMR spectra is p-cymene.
