1 TOPIC 9. STRUCTURE DETERMINATION (chapter 9 and part of chapter 2)

2 OBJECTIVES 1. Use combustion analysis to determine empirical formula.
2. Determine molecular weight (and molecular formula) from mass spectrometry. 2. Calculate number of rings and double bonds from molecular formula. 3. Determine functional groups present from infrared spectroscopy. 4. Use 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy to identify other structural features. 5. Combine conclusions from individual techniques to determine the structure of organic compounds. Problems in this section will be restricted to the following classes of aliphatic and aromatic compounds: Alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, alkyl halides, alcohols, ethers, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, esters, acyl chlorides, anhydrides, amides, amines, nitriles

3 COMBUSTION ANALYSIS CxHyOz + O2 xCO2 + (y/2)H2O ???
Measure mass of CO2 and H2O formed from a known mass of compound; data cited as mass% of each element present. Generally do not measure mass%O. e.g., C H O Mass% Mole Ratio = Empirical formula Be careful when rounding, elemental analyses provided ±0.4 mass% - do not round by more than 0.05 to 0.1. Multiply ratios before rounding.

4 EMPIRICAL AND MOLECULAR FORMULAS; DETERMINATION OF “SODAR”
Molecular formula is an integral number of times the empirical formula. C2H4O Sum of double bonds and rings (“SODAR”) For C,H,O: (2#C + 2 – #H) / 2 For C,H,O,N,Hal: (2#C + 2– #H – #Hal + #N) / 2 Each Hal replaces a H Each N adds an extra H S,O: no effect on calculation If SODAR calculated from empirical formula is not a positive integral (or 0), this cannot be the molecular formula. C2H4O MOLECULAR FORMULA COULD BE: ???

5 If SODAR ≥4: consider the possible presence of a benzene ring

6 MASS SPECTROMETRY Theory and Experiment M + e– (70 eV) M+ + 2e–
M lower mass ions

7 Data Available e.g., mass spectrum of ethane, CH3CH3 abundance
Ions also fragment, which can give further clues about the structure (beyond scope of this course). Knowledge of molecular weight (from mass spec) and empirical formula (from combustion analysis) allows determination of molecular formula. abundance m/e

8 Empirical formula: C2H4O Mass spectrum: M+ m/e = 88

13 Validating resonance theory
C═O (ester) cm-1 C═O (amide) cm-1 Which is the stronger bond? Can we understand this using resonance theory?

14 Infrared spectroscopy indicates the presence of particular bonds in a sample. The combination of bonds indicates which functional groups are present. You do not need to memorize the data in Table 2.7 (or the previous slide) for this class. However, you must develop experience at interpreting IR spectra to be able to determine the presence of particular functional groups.

32 Preview: Types of Information available from a 1H NMR spectrum
A 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum contains information about the: (a) number of different types of proton (b) relative number of each type of proton (c) proximity to functional groups (d) the number of adjacent protons

33 (a) The number of signals in the spectrum is the number of types of proton.
1H NMR spectrum of methane CH4 one peak  one type of proton 1H NMR spectrum of ethane CH3–CH3 absorption absorption

34 Protons that are related to each other by a rotation or plane of symmetry are identical (chemical shift equivalent)

35 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum of methanol…

36 (b) The relative area of each peak (the integration) corresponds to the relative number of each type of proton 1H NMR spectrum of methanol integral ratio :  ratio of types of proton 1H NMR spectrum of p-xylene absorption absorption

37 (c) The chemical shift indicates the environment of the proton

39 The d-scale d = x 106 [ppm] nproton - nTMS nTMS
The frequency at which a proton resonates is measured relative to the frequency for the protons of tetramethylsilane, TMS (which resonates at a relatively low frequency), and cited on the d (delta) scale in parts per million of the frequency at which TMS resonates. d = x [ppm] nproton - nTMS nTMS

,000, ,000,100 ,000, ,000,200 ,000, ,000,300 - The resonance frequency (in Hz) depends on magnet strength. - The chemical shift () is independent of magnet strength.

42 You will be provided with a copy of Table 9. 1 on exams
You will be provided with a copy of Table 9.1 on exams. This provides approximate ranges for values of chemical shifts for particular types of protons. Remember that protons adjacent to two (or more) electron withdrawing groups will appear further downfield than a proton adjacent to only one.

44 Other peaks in spectrum:
10 d / ppm 5 CDCl3 H2O TMS

45 (d) The multiplicity of a signal indicates the number of adjacent protons
1H NMR spectrum of ethanol S:9.8

46 Spin-Spin Coupling E Ha B
The magnetic field experienced by a proton is effected by the magnetic field generated by each adjacent proton. Bo If Hb spin , need to apply larger E (=hn) to achieve resonance of Ha If Hb spin , need to apply smaller E (=hn) to achieve resonance of Ha E Bo+↓ Ha Bo+ B

47 Bo To achieve resonance of Ha If Hb spins  + , need to apply higher n If Hb spins  + , or,  +  signal appears at a If Hb spins  + , need to apply lower n

48 Coupling is only observed between non-equivalent protons.
The signal for a proton with N adjacent equivalent protons will be split into a multiplet consisting of N+1 lines. The relative area of each peak within a multiplet can be determined from Pascal’s triangle

55 Problems: Predict the appearance (chemical shift, integral and multiplicity) of the 1H NMR signals of the following compounds. (a) 2-butanone, CH3COCH2CH3 (b) methyl 3-chloropropanoate, ClCH2CH2CO2CH3

56 Problems: Provide structures consistent with the following data.

58 13C NMR SPECTROMETRY Introduction 13C (not 12C) has nuclear spin
However, 13C is only present at 1.1% abundance - Signals are weak - Spectra usually acquired without multiplicity information - Larger range of chemical shifts (0 to >200 ppm)

59 200 150 100 50 d / ppm

60 Types of Information available from a 13C NMR spectrum
A 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum contains information about the: (a) number of different types of carbon - Each peak corresponds to a different type of carbon (b) type of carbons and proximity to functional groups - Chemical shift provides information about the type of carbon present Unlike 1H NMR spectra, simple 13C NMR spectra do not provide information about the: relative number of each type of proton or number of adjacent protons or carbons

61 USING DATA TO DETERMINE STRUCTURE
1. Write down conclusions from each individual technique - Use combustion analysis to determine empirical formula, and mass spectrometry to give molecular weight (and molecular formula) - Calculate number of rings and double bonds from molecular formula (SODAR) - Determine presence of functional groups present from infrared spectroscopy. - Use 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy to identify other structural features. 2. Use these conclusions to determine the structure 3. Check your answer (predict the spectra; do your predicted spectra match the data provided?)

62 WORK PROBLEMS!! In the remaining lectures we will cover problem solving approaches for determining organic structures from spectral (and other) information. Additional problem appear in the following sources: Solomons (just do the “easy” problems from this site. The answers to these problems are NOT available from this site; do not bother Prof. Smith. The answers to the easy problems, along with answers to the problems in these notes are posted on the “Notes and HWebs” page of the course web site)
