The oxidation of 3-pentanol to 3-pentanone was performed in the lab and an IR was taken of the finished product.
(a) what are the key functional groups in the starting material, 3-pentaol?
(b) what are the key functional groups in the product, 3-pentanone?
(c) based on the IR spectrum below, was the experiment successful, and, if so, how pure was the product? Explain your reasoning.
The IR spectrum of a sample contains absorptions at 1750 cm-1. To what class of
organic compound does this sample most likely belong?
Alkene
Ketone
Alkane
Alcohol
Reduction of cyclohex-2-enone can yield cyclohexanone, cyclohex-2-enol, or cyclohexanol, depending on the reagent and reaction conditions. How could you use IR spectroscopy to distinguish the three possible products?
