A compound with molecular formula C6H15N exhibits a singlet at d 0.9 ppm (1H), a triplet at 1.10 ppm (3H), a singlet at 1.15 ppm (9H), and a quartet at 2.6 ppm (2H) in its 1HNMR spectrum. Its IR spectrum shows one medium absorption band near 3400 cm-1. What is the structure of this compound?

CH3 - CH2 - NH - C(CH3)3

Explanation:

The 1HNMR is the acronym for Proton nuclear magnetic resonance and it is used in chemistry or Chemical laboratory for the analysis and identification of compounds.

In order to be able to answer the question accurately you have to have the tables containing all the values for chemical shift. The Chemical shift is measured in ppm and it occur due to Resonance frequency variation.

From the table, a singlet at 1.15 ppm (9H) is - C(CH3)3.

A singlet at d 0.9 ppm (1H) shows the presence of a secondary amine group, that is -R2NH group.

A triplet at 1.10 ppm (3H) shows that we have;

CH3- CH2-

A quartet at 2.6 ppm (2H) shows that we have;

-CH2 - CH3.

Therefore, joining all together we have;

CH3 - CH2 - NH - C(CH3)3.
