Question: How might you use IR spectroscopy to distinguish between the following pairs of isomers?
Question: The nitrogen ruleof mass spectrometry says that a compound containing an odd number of nitrogen’s has an odd-numbered molecular ion.
Conversely, a compound containing an even number of nitrogen’s has
an even-numbered M+peak. Explain.
Answer questions 6-39 taking all stereoisomers into account.
(a)

(b)

(c)

The infrared spectrum of the compound with the mass spectrum shown below lacks any significant absorption above 3000cm-1 . There is a prominent peak near 1740cm-1 and another strong peak near 1200cm-1 .
Propose a structure consistent with the data.

Question: By knowing the natural abundances of minor isotopes, it’s possible to
calculate the relative heights of and M+1 peaks. If 13C has a natural
abundance of 1.10%, what are the relative heights of the and
M+1 peaks in the mass spectrum of benzene, C6H6?
