Deduce the structure of an unknown compound using the data below: Molecular Formula: C6H12O IR: 1705 cm-1 1H NMR: no absorptions greater than δ 3 ppm 13C NMR: δ 24.4, δ 26.4, δ 44.2, and δ 212.6 ppm. Resonances at δ 44.2 and 212.6 have very low intensity.

The compound elucidated from the spectral data is 4-methyl penta-2-none

Explanation:

1700 cm-1 from IR data suspects aldehyde/ketone or carboxylic acid. However,since the peak is not a stretched vibration, it implies an aldehyde or ketone present.3 ppm H NMR confirms O-CH3 bond24.4 13C NMR confirms CH3-R bond 26.4 13C NMR  confirms H3C-(R)C(H)-R44.2 13C NMR Confirms C=2126 13C NMR confirms aldehyde C=O bond

The deduced structure is 4-methyl penta-2-one (see attached) given multiple CH3 atoms.
