a. Compound A has two major absorptions above 1500 cm-1: The absorption at ~3000 cm¹ is due
to C-H bonds and the absorption at -1700 cm¹ is due to a C=O group.
b. Compound B has two major absorptions above 1500 cm: The absorption at -3000 cm¹ is due to
C-H bonds and the absorption at -2250 cm is due to a triple bond, either a C=C or a C=N.
Because there is no absorption due to an sp hybridized C-H bond at 3300 cm, this IR spectrum
cannot be due to a terminal alkyne (HC=CR) but may still be due to an internal alkyne.
