1. Please interpret the spectrum below. The molecular ion peak is visible. You should be able to identify the molecular mass of the compound. Next, identify the fragment represented by the reference peak including the mass of the fragment. Note that the mass of the molecular ion less this mass gives you the mass of the remainder of the molecule. Next look for indications of functional groups based upon their masses or display characteristics (these include OH, CHO, COOH, NH, NO2, F, Cl, Br, I etc.) The molecule does have one functional group(other than just Carbons and hydrogens). Identify and draw the compound. (marks) 100 80 60 Relative Intensity 40 20 0 25 50 100 125 75 m/z
