Step 1
First, we need to identify the hydrocarbon. In this case, it is octane, which is a straight-chain alkane with the molecular formula C8H18. Show more…

What is the structure of a hydrocarbon that has $\mathrm{M}^{+}=120$ in its mass spectrum and has the following $1 \mathrm{H}$ NMR spectrum? 7.25 $\delta(5 \mathrm{H}, \text { broad singlet); } 2.90 \delta(1 \mathrm{H}, \text { septet, } J=7 \mathrm{Hz}) ; 1.22 \delta(6 \mathrm{H},\text { doublet, }$ $J=7 \mathrm{Hz})$
1. Mass spectrum of pentane contains fragmentation peaks: 15, 29, 43. Please show fragmentation structures of pentane which correspond with signals found in the spectrum. 2. Look at the mass spectrum of 2-methylhexane. What is the m/z value of the M+ peak and of the base peak? Give possible structures of the fragments giving rise to the large peaks at m/z = 85, 57, and 43. Mass Spectra and Fragmentation Patterns of Pentane and 2-Methylhexane
