For each of the following pairs of compounds, give one IR absorption band that could be used to distinguish between them: B. 2-Pentyne AND 1-butyne. H.2-Pentene AND 2-Pentyne
Added by George A.
Step 1
2-Pentyne and 1-butyne 2-Pentyne is a terminal alkyne (the triple bond is at the end of the molecule) while 1-butyne is an internal alkyne (the triple bond is in the middle of the molecule). Terminal alkynes have a C-H stretch that appears around 3300 cm-1 in the Show more…
