Question: Describe the changes expected in the IR spectra if 3-nitroacetophenone was reduced to: a) 1-(3-nitrophenyl)ethanol, b) 3-aminoacetophenone, c) 3-(1-hydroxy-ethyl)aniline. Show (with a chemical equation)

Describe the changes expected in the IR spectra if 3-nitroacetophenone was reduced 

Describe the changes expected in the IR spectra if 3-nitroacetophenone was reduced to: a) 1-(3-nitrophenyl)ethanol, b) 3-aminoacetophenone, c) 3-(1-hydroxy-ethyl)aniline. Show (with a chemical equation) and describe (in words) the mechanism of the sodium borohydride reduction of acetone to 2-propanol. How many moles of acetone can be reduced by one mole of sodium borohydride? Provide the expected product of the reduction of ethyl acetoacetate (right) with a large excess of: a) sodium borohydride or b) lithium alu- minum hydride. 1. 2. 3. OEt
