Preface
The following fifteen problems are a continuation of Ten Problem in Spectroscopy, which was used
as supplementary exercises for a course in spectroscopy at FARMA. The intention is to offer somepossibilities for students to work with problems in spectroscopy either individually or in groups.
The present edition differs from the first edition by adding five problems (Problem 1-5, Part 1) withcompounds, the structures of which can be solved solely by taking advantage of the IR,
1H NMR and
molecular weight as revealed from the mass spectrum. The13
C NMR spectrum and DEPT135 spectrum arealso given. If the signal in the
13C NMR spectrum is assigned a 0 the signal wil l disappear in the DEPT
spectrum, a + indicates that the signal will have a positive intensity and a - indicates a negative intensity.The
13C NMR spectra can be used as a possibility for interpreting such spectra when the students feel
confident with this spectroscopical technique.
In some of the problems two1H NMR spectra are recorded: one spectrum of the compound
dissolved in a deuterated solvent and one spectrum after addition deuterium oxide (D2O). By comparison ofthe spectra you will observe that one or more signals have disappeared from the latter spectrum. In this case
advantage is taken of the possibility of exchanging protons attached to oxygen, nitrogen or sulfur atoms withdeuterium by shaking the solution with deuterium oxide. Consequently it can be concluded that thedisappeared signal originates in a proton attached to either an oxygen, a nitrogen, or a sulfur atom.
In worked Problem 1 an example is given on a strategy for structure elucidation.
The problems 6-15 (Part 2) present molecules with more complex structures. Such problems aresolved using all the information available from MS,
1H NMR, and
13C NMR spectra. Worked Problem 2
presents a strategy for dealing with this kind of problems.
It is always difficult to predict the challenge of problems, especially for someone who knows theanswers. That is why the problems appear at random. I would, however, assume the problems 11, 12, and13 might appear a minor challenge than other problems in Part 2.
In the problems 6 and 7 you will notice that the1H NMR spectrum is recorded at 300 MHz as well as
at 600 MHz. These spectra illustrate how a complex NMR pattern simplifies at higher field. In problem 6 aCOSY spectrum helps interpreting the contiguity of the molecule.
The following spectra are spectra recorded of real compound, meaning that you will experience thefalse signal that might appear e.g. in an IR spectrum, if the potassium bromide used for preparing the disc ishumid.
Before looking up the solution I suggest that you draw the expected molecule in a drawing programthat enables you to predict the spectra (e.g. ChemBioDraw) and ask the program to predict the
1H and
13C
NMR spectra.
The solutions to the problems are given the last page as the CAS numbers of the compounds.
Finally I wish you fun when solving the problems.
Acknowledgement: Nils T. Nyberg has recorded the 600 MHz spectra, Birgitte Simonsen the IR spectra,and Dorthe M. Skytte has performed careful prove reading and given creative inputs.

Elucidation of the configuration of an organic compound using molecular
weight, IR and1H NMR spectra
The structures of the compounds, in which the spectra given in problems 1 to 5 originate, can be
elucidated solely by interpreting the IR and 1H NMR spectra and taking advantage of the molecular
weight as stated on the EIMS spectrum. The EIMS and13
C NMR spectra are also given. The latterspectra might be interpreted at a later stage.
Molecular weight
The molecular weight is stated to be 86 g/mol.
Functional groups
The IR spectrum reveals a strong absorbance just below 3000 cm-1 indicating the presence of
hydrogen atoms attached to sp3 hybridized carbon atoms. In addition the spectrum reveals a
strong absorbance at 1720 cm-1 indicating the presence of a ketone group. Besides these bands
the spectrum reveals no strong absorbance above 1500 cm-1.
Building blocks1H NMR spectrum
The building blocks of the molecule can be interpreted from the 1H NMR spectrum revealing the
presence of two methyl groups (2 CH3, 2.10 and 0.90 ppm, integral 3H for each) and two
methylene groups (2 CH2, 2.40 and 1.60 ppm, integral 2H for each). A combination of the atoms
present in the groups affords a weight of 215 + 214 = 58. Since the molecular weight was 86 the
weight of the remaining building block must be 28, corresponding to a C=O group. This latter group
already was expected from the IR spectrum revealing that the compound was a ketone.
The contiguity of the molecule
The contiguity of the molecule is revealed from the multiplicities (coupling patterns) of the signals in
the 1H NMR spectrum as listed in the below Table 1.
Intensity Multiplicity J Interpretation
2.40 2 t 6.9 Hz CH2-CH2-CO
2.10 3 s 6.9 Hz CH3-CO
1.60 2 sextet 6.9 Hz CH3-CH2-CH2
0.90 3 t 6.9 Hz CH3-CH2
Table 1: Systematic representation of the signals in the 1H NMR spectrum.
The coupling constants, J, are measured on the spectrum as illustrated below:
1. The distance between 1.0 and 2.0 on the X-axis measured with a ruler is 56 mm.
2. Since the spectrum is recorded at 300 MHz 1 ppm equals 300 Hz. From point 1 it appears
that 56 mm is the distance between 1 and 2 ppm on the X-axis and therefore 56 mm also is
the distance of 300 Hz on the X-axis. Division 300/56 reveals that 1 mm equals 5.3 Hz.

3. The distances between the peaks of the triplet at 2.4 ppm measured with a ruler is 1.3 mm
corresponding to 1.35.3 = 6.9 Hz.
The signal at 2.40 is a triplet (J6.9 Hz) integrating for two protons. The -value indicates that the
signal is next to the C=O group and the multiplicity indicates that the signal is also next to a CH2-
group.
The signal at 2.10 is a singlet integrating for three protons. The -value indicates that the signal is
next to a C=O group: CH3-(C=O)-.
The signal at 1.60 is a sextet (J6.9 Hz) integrating for two protons, indicating that the signal is
only weakly affected by elctronegative groups and 5 neighboring protons are affecting the signal.
The neighboring groups have to be a methyl and a methylene group.
The signal at 0.90 is a triplet (J6.9 Hz) integrating for three protons, indicating a methyl group
affected by a neighboring methylene group.
All this information is given in the table.
Based on this knowledge the molecule has to be: CH3-(C=O)-CH2-CH2-CH3.
Prediction of spectrum
Figure 1 reveals the spectrum predicted by ChemBioDraw (Draw the compound in the drawing
program, mark the compound, go into structure, and choose predict 1H-NMR shifts):
Figure 1:1H NMR spectrum predicted by ChemBioDraw. As often is the case with simple molecules the
prediction is very good.

Part 2: Problems 6 15
Elucidation of the configuration of an organic compound using EIMS, IR, 1H
NMR and13C NMR spectra
On the following pages you will find the EIMS, IR, 1H NMR, and 13CNMR spectra of ten organiccompounds. The challenge is to elucidate the configurations of the compounds. A possible strategyis firstly to interpret the MS to deduce the molecular weight. Inspection of the pattern at M+,(M+1)+, and (M+2)+ or the similar pattern at dominant peaks in the mass spectrum can be used forestimating the elemental composition of the molecule (cf. the following paragraph on massspectrometry). The functional group(s) in the molecule might be deduced from the IR spectrumand, if the functional group contains a carbon atom, from the 13C NMR spectrum. The DEPT-135combined with the 13C NMR spectrum reveals the number of quaternary carbon atoms, the numberof methine, methylene and methyl groups in the molecule. The DEPT-135 spectrum is indicated inthe 13C NMR spectra by annotation of 0 if the signal disappears, + if the signal has a positiveintensity, and - if the signal has a negative intensity in the DEPT-135 spectrum. Use theintegration curves in the 1H NMR spectrum to confirm the number of hydrogen atoms in themolecule. By adding the weight of the revealed groups an estimate of the molecular weight can bemade. If the estimated weight corresponds to the weight as revealed from the MS the buildingblocks involved in the molecule are known. Finally the contiguity of the molecule to give the finalconfiguration can be obtained by interpreting the coupling pattern of the signals in the 1H NMRspectrum.
In Worked Problem 2 you will find an example of structure elucidation using the mentionedstrategy. In the following paragraph you will find see how the signals in the mass spectra with m/zvalues a few units higher than the value of the molecular weight might be used for estimation of themolecular formula.

Mass spectrometry for Analysis of Elemental Composition of Organic
Compounds
Almost all elements are a mixture of more isotopes. In general the major isotope possesses thesmallest atomic mass (an exception is borine). The molecular mass is defined as the mass of the
molecule containing the lightest isotopes. A mass spectrum thus will display a peak for themolecular ion plus a number of peaks with larger values for m/z. The pattern of these peaks willdepend on the elemental composition of the molecule and might thus be helpful for estimating themolecular formula. The most common elements in organic molecules are listed in Table 1:

The elements might be grouped into three types of elements: Type A, Type A+1, and Type A+2. Ifthe intensity of the peak two units higher than the molecular ion is less than three per cent of thatof the molecular ion it may be concluded that none of the elements Si, S, Cl or Br is present. Somecharacteristic patterns for molecules containing chlorine and bromine molecules are given in (Table2).

Some drawing software like ChemDraw shows the pattern above the molecular peak in theanalysis window (in ChemBioDraw mark the molecule, choose the View drop down menu, choose
Analysis Window).
The number of carbon atoms in the molecule can be calculated according to the below equation:
in which 1.1 is the percentage of naturally occurring 13C, n is the number of carbon atoms in themolecule, I(M+1) is the intensity of the peak at (M+1), I(M) is the intensity of the molecular peak.

Elucidation of configuration of worked problem 2:
Molecular weight
EIMS indicates a molecular weight of 68
Building blocks13C NMR and DEPT-135 shows
1 quaternary C
2 CH2
1 CH and 1 CH3, or 2 CH, or 2 CH3.
The chemical shifts of the signals indicate 1 CH and 1 CH3. This is confirmed by inspection of the1H NMR spectrum in which one signal integrates for 1H and one signal for 3H.
Addition of the weights of these building blocks gives 12 + 214 + 13 + 15 = 68. All the buildingblocks of the molecule have been found.
Molecular formula: C5H8 DBE: (10+2-8) = 2
Functional groups
IR spectrum:
A strong band at 3311 cm-1 and 2117 cm-1 shows the presence of a terminal triple bond. Noadditional functional groups appear to be present.
The presence of a triple bond is confirmed by signals at 84 and 68 ppm in the 13C NMR spectrum.
The contiguity of the molecule1H NMR spectrum
The contiguity of the molecule is revealed from the coupling patterns of the signals of the protonsin the molecule (Table 4).
Intensity Multiplicity J Interpretation
2.15 2 dt 3 and 7 Hz H- - CH2-CH2
1.93 1 t 3 Hz H- - CH2
1.55 2 sextet 7 Hz CH2-CH2-CH3
0.90 3 t 7 Hz CH3-CH2
Table 4: Systematic representation of the signals in the 1H NMR spectrum.
The small size of the coupling constant (3 Hz) of the signals at 2.15 ppm and 1.93 ppm indicatethat this is a long range coupling (larger than 3-bonds coupling, indicated by using two hyphensbetween the H and the C in the Table). All the other coupling constants (7 Hz) are as expected forvicinal couplings (3-bonds couplings).
8/6/2019 15 Problems in Spectroscopy 2010 (1)
25/59
25
The coupling constants are measured as described in Worked Problem 1
The splitting pattern of the terminal CH3 (t) reveals that it must be bound to a CH2 group: CH3-CH2-.
The splitting pattern of the CH2 group bound to the CH3 (sextet) reveals that it must be bound to anadditional CH2: CH3-CH2-CH2-.
Remaining building blocks are C and CH. Since the IR and 13C NMR spectrum indicated a terminaltriple bond we can conclude that these two carbons must be a CC-H group yielding the molecule:
CH3-CH2-CH2-CC-H.
The presence of a coupling constant of 3 Hz in only in the two signals at 2.15 and 1.93 proves thatthe protons, in which these signals origin, must couple with each other.
The coupling pattern of the CH2-group next to the triple bond can be explained by the couplingdiagram (Figure 2):

Prediction of the spectra
If the molecule is drawn in ChemBioDraw and the program is prompted to predict the 1H NMRspectrum (mark the molecule, choose the drop down menu at Structure and ask for the predictionof 1H NMR) the below spectrum is predicted (Figure 3):
Figure 3: 1H NMR spectrum predicted by ChemBioDraw for 1-pentyne.
8/6/2019 15 Problems in Spectroscopy 2010 (1)
26/59
26
Notice that the signal originating in the CC-H is predicted to appear at 2.7 ppm but actuallyappears at 1.93 ppm. The other signals are reasonably well predicted. Notice also the goodprediction of the coupling patterns.
The predicted 13C NMR spectrum is shown below (Figure 4):
Figure 4: 13C NMR of 1-pentyne predicted by ChemBioDraw.
Interpretation of the spectra (Figure 5):1H NMR 13C NMR
Figure 5: Interpretation of the NMR spectra
Interpretation of the MS
In the MS spectrum the peak at m/z53 must origin form M+-15, the peak at m/z67 must originform M+-1, and the peak at m/z40 equals the loss of an ethylene molecule, which could be causedby at McLafferty rearrangement (Figure 6):
m/z= 68 m/z= 40
