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

- Camphor, a saturated monoketone from the Asian camphor tree, is used among other things as a moth repellent and as a constituent of embalming fluid. If camphor has M+=152.1201 by high-resolution mass spectrometry, what is its molecular formula? How many rings does camphor have?arrow_forwardThe compound below is treated with chlorine in the presence of light. H₂C CH3 H3C CH₂CH3 Draw the structure for the organic radical species produced by reaction of the compound with a chlorine atom. Assume reaction occurs at the weakest C-H bond. • You do not have to consider stereochemistry. • You do not have to explicitly draw H atoms.arrow_forwardThe first resonance structure of acetamide, CH3 CONH2, is shown.

SN2 reactions to fight cancer Cyclophosphamide is a chemotherapy medication used to treat various types of cancers (i.e. lymphoma, leukemia, and breast cancer). It belongs to a group of cytotoxic alkylating agents known as Nitrogen mustards. The activity of these drugs is attributed to the chloroethylamine groups. CI R. 'N I R NH Cl + Cl R'-NH₂ Cyclophosphamide In this exercise, you will explore the mechanism responsible for the cytotoxic activity of Nitrogen mustards and how it is possible to tune their activity (therefore their toxicity) by modifying their chemical structure.

- Compounds 1 and 2 were prepared, and the difference in their heats of combustion was found to be 17.2 kJ/mol (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1961, 83, 606-614): H H 1 Shown below are the lowest-energy conformations of compounds 1 and 2. Identify which drawing matches which compound, and identify which compound has the larger heat of combustion. H H H H |||I 2 H 4 H H The first drawing is compound 1, and compound 1 has a larger heat of combustion because it is the less stable compound.
