How would you use IR and 1H-NMR spectroscopy to distinguish between these two isomeric compounds?

For IR, consider the absorption of the carbonyl group.
For 1H-NMR, consider the number of signals observed.
Select the IR frequency and number of NMR signals that is diagnostic for either isomer a or isomer b.

Isomer A: N-methylbutanamide
Isomer B: N,N-dimethylpropanamide

IR: _______ cm-1

a-1680

a-1690

a-1735

a-1810

a-2250

b-1650

b-1690

b-1710

b-2250
1H-NMR: _____  signals

a-4

a-5

b-3

b-4

b-5

b-6

Answer #1

The given Isomers A and B can be easily identifiable by 1H NMR.

A. N-methylbutanamide will show 5 signals in 1HNMR in which amidic N-H proton will be there.

.N,N-dimethylpropanamide will show 3 signals in 1H NMR.
