Interpretations and Questions Concerning this Synthesis
Interpretation of IR (Infrared Spectrometry)
By running an infrared spectrometry (IR) important information about the particular functional groups of a compound is obtained. This allows for the naming of an unknown compound by analyzing the different functional groups that makes up the specific compound. The regions in which the functional groups appear fall between 4000-1300 cm-1 on the spectra. Since the compound I attempted to synthesize was an ester, the first thing I looked for on my spectra was a strong peak between 1800-1700 cm-1. My spectra did indeed have a strong peak at 1718.6 cm-1 so I concluded that the functional group ester was present in my compound. The, part of the compou

nd is represented by a peak at cm-1 on the spectra that I ran. The that is located on the end of my compound shows up in the spectra by the peaks that occur between cm-1. After analyzing the spectra that I ran on my compound, I compared the IR results to the one in Sadtler. Since they were the same, I was able to confirm that the compound I synthesized was indeed isopentyl acetate.
Interpretation of NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectrometry)
The ability that gas chromatography has to separate complex mixtures is a main reason why GC is a major resource used when attempting to identify unknown compounds. After putting the mixture into the GC, the different components begin to separate and the chromatogram records the changes each component causes
