Question
spectral problem its all one problem
1) identify the compounds for each group of spectra (mass, proton, carbon and IR)
2) assign the proton and carbon and IR spectra. identify at least two possible fragmentation on the mass spectrum

Answer #1

MS data:

M+ (parent peak) = 86

Percent of carbon = 69.8%

Percent of hydrogen = 11.6%

Percent of oxygen = 18.6%

To calculate empirical formula

Converting mass of each element to moles using molar mass

molar mass of carbon = 69.8/12 = 5.8

molar mass of hydrogen = 11.6 / 1 = 11.6

molar mass of oxygen = 18.6 / 16 = 1.16

Dividing each mole value by the smallest number of moles calculated. Round to the nearest whole number.

Number of carbon = 5.8/1.16 = 5

Number of hydrogen = 11.6/1.16 = 10

Number of oxygen = 1.16/1.16 = 1

Empirical formula = C5H10O

Molecular weight of empirical formula is 86 and hence molecular formula is same that is C5H10O

Degree of Unsaturation (DOU) is also known as Double Bond Equivalent. If the molecular formula is given, DoU can be calculated as follows

DoU   =   2C+2+N−X−H

               2

C is the number of carbons

N is the number of nitrogens

X is the number of halogens (F, Cl, Br, I)

H is the number of hydrogens

Molecular formula = C5H10O

Sites of unsaturation = 1
