The following spectra were obtained form the NIST Chemistry WebBook. I let the students work on the problem. Then I asked the students to suggest some structures. When 5 different structures were suggested, I posted them on the board and let the students vote on the ones they thought fit the data best.
What is the structure of the compound? • C9H10 • Spectrum on following slide
