Question

in the regions (c) The IR spectrum of THIS AREA 5850_15 m wem of an organic compound. Y has major absorption peaks in the re and 1680-180cm respectively. Y has a relative molecular mass of and forms an aqueous solution which is neutral entify the crous rensible for the above absorptions [2 marks] (1) State the name of Compound Y and draw its displayed formula. Name: [1 mark] Displayed Formula [2 marks]

Answer 1

Part c.

i) The absorption at 3350-3500 cm^-1 corresponds to the N-H absorption of the amide group.

The absorption at 1680-1800 cm^-1 corresponds to the C=O stretch of the amide group.

ii) The formula of the compound can be written as C₂H₅NO₂.

The structure of the compound can be drawn as follows.

CH₃O-C(=O)-NH₂
