IR16. Sketch an approximate IR spectrum for each of the following compounds:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

IR17. The oop bends are sometimes useful in distinguishing substitution pattrens around a benzene ring. Using the spectra of o-, m-, and p-xylene, formulate some guidelines about what the oop bends look like when substituents are one, two or three carbons away on a benzene ring.

IR18.  Sketch what the following IR spectra might look like:

a)  a spectrum of 2-butanone, CH3COCH2CH3, contaminated with a roughly equal amount of 2-butanol, CH3CHOHCH2CH3.

b)  a spectrum of 2-butanone, CH3COCH2CH3, dissolved in tert-butyl methyl ether, (CH3)3COCH3,  to make a 1% solution.
