Question: An unknown X shows a broad absorption band in the infrared at 3200-3550 cm-1 but none in the 1620-1780 cm-1 region. It contains only C,
An unknown X shows a broad absorption band in the infrared at 3200-3550 cm-1 but none in the 1620-1780 cm-1 region. It contains only C, H, and O. A 116-mg sample was treated with an excess of methylmagnesium bromide, producing 48.7 mL of methane gas collected over mercury at 20(C and 750 mm Hg. The mass spectrum of X has its molecular ion (barely detectable) at 116 m/z and a fragment peak at 98. What does this information tell you about the structure of X?
