Chapter 15, Problem 15.24P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

Which of the two spectra in Your Turn 15.17 most likely corresponds to nitrile, is to be explained.

Concept introduction:

IR spectroscopy enables us to identify different functional groups in the molecule.

One of the greatest advantages of IR spectroscopy is that the frequency of a particular type of vibration is typically found within a characteristic range of frequencies, regardless of the functional group with which the vibration is associated. The fact that absorptions by certain vibrations appear with characteristic frequency ranges enables us to use IR spectroscopy to obtain structural information about a molecule. The absorption band for CC bond appears as a sharp band in the range of 21002260 cm1 and for CN bond appears sharp band in the range of 22102260 cm1. So, they both appear nearly in the same region. The presence of any of these two functional can be determined based on their relative absorption intensities. The nitrile RCN stretches have moderate absorption intensities due to large bond dipole whereas alkyne RCCR stretches have weak absorption intensities due to small bond dipole.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The alkyne most likely internal or terminal in the two spectra given in your turn 15.17, it is to be explained.
