Cyclohexane spectra

Pentacarbonyl(methoxymethylcarbene)chroniiuin(0) is a dull-yellow, crystalline solid mp 34°. It slowly decomposes in the solid state at room temperature in air, but may be stored at 5° for a few days before appreciable decomposition is observed. It is soluble in aliphatic hydrocarbons such as n-pentane, n-hexane, n-heptane, and other common laboratory solvents such as benzene, 1,4-dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, chloroform, dichloromethane, and methanol, and is slightly soluble in ethanol. The infrared spectrum (cyclohexane solution) has v(CO) bands at 2065, 1985, 1965, and 1950 cm-1. The H nmr spectrum in chloroform-d shows the methoxy proton resonance at t6.15 and the methyl proton resonance at t7.70. Other physical properties are reported in the literature.6,7...

The auto-association of A-4-thiazoline-2-thione is clearly indicated b the hypsOchromic shift (5 nm) of the 315-nm band when the spectrum is first recorded at 50°C and then at —25°C (10 M in cyclohexane). In the same temperature range the spectrum of 3-methyl-A-4-thiazoline-2-thione remains unchanged (61). 

We know from Chapter 3 that the protons m cyclohexane exist m two different envi ronments axial and equatorial The NMR spectrum of cyclohexane however shows only a single sharp peak at 8 1 4 All the protons of cyclohexane appear to be equivalent m the NMR spectrum Why" ... 

Most other studies have indicated considerably more complex behavior. The rate data for reaction of 3-methyl-l-phenylbutanone with 5-butyllithium or n-butyllithium in cyclohexane can be fit to a mechanism involving product formation both through a complex of the ketone with alkyllithium aggregate and by reaction with dissociated alkyllithium. Evidence for the initial formation of a complex can be observed in the form of a shift in the carbonyl absorption band in the IR spectrum. Complex formation presumably involves a Lewis acid-Lewis base interaction between the carbonyl oxygen and lithium ions in the alkyllithium cluster. 

This is most readily studied with cyclohexane- /n in which 11 of the 12 protons are replaced with deuterium. The spectrum of cyclohexane- /n resembles the behavior shown in Fig. 4-8 at about — 100°C (the slow exchange regime) two sharp lines are seen these broaden as the temperature is increased, reaching coalescence at — 61.4°C, and becoming a single sharp line at higher temperatures. (The deuterium nuclei must be decoupled by rf irradiation.) Rate constants t for the conversion were measured over the temperature range — 116.7°C to — 24.0°C by Anet and Bourne. It is probable that the chair-chair inversion takes place via a boat intermediate. 

The spectra of an organic compound in various solvents differ only in small detail so long as no serious interaction takes place between solute and solvent. Thus the spectrum of a substance in an aprotic solvent (e.g. cyclohexane) should be almost the same as that in water. When addition of water occurs across a C=N bond, the spectrum of the hydrate in water can be vastly different from the spectrum of the anhydrous substance in cyclohexane, and this test has been used on several occasions determine whether or not a neutral species... 

Two Infrared spectra are shown. One is the spectrum of cyclohexane, and the other is the spectrum of cyclohexene. Identify them, and explain your answer.

Take some crude cresol mixture (1 g) and dissolve it in cyclohexane (20 mL). Obtain the infrared spectrum for the mixture if necessary, dilute the solution further with cyclohexane to obtain absorbances which will lie on the calibration graphs. From the selected absorption peaks calculate the absorbances for the three individual isomers and use the calibration graphs to calculate the percentage composition of the cresol mixture. 

In order to prepare ZSM-5 zeolite nanocrystals, an A1 source of aluminium isopropoxide was added into solution A, and hydrothermal synthesis of the solution A containing Si and A1 sources was carried out in an 0-15/cyclohexane solution at 120 degree C for 50 h. Figures 4 show ac-NHj-TPD spectra and a SEM photograph of the ZSM-5 zeolite nanocrystals. Nanocrystals with a diameter of approximately 150 nm were observed, and the NH3-TPD spectrum showed desorption of NHj above 600 K, indicating that the nanocrystals possessed strong acid sites.
