Compound 3. The absorptions in the region in Figure 13.31 indicate
that hydrogens are attached to carbons but not to carbons. The
shape of the strong absorption band at is characteristic of an group.
The absorption at indicates that the compound has a triple bond. The
sharp absorption band at indicates that the compound is a terminal alkyne.
The compound is 2-propyn-1-ol.

Compound 4. The absorption in the region in Figure 13.32 indicates
that hydrogens are attached to carbons The relatively strong absorp-
tion band at suggests that the compound has one bond. The pres-
ence of the bond is confirmed by the absorption at The
absorption at indicates that the compound is an amide. The compound is
N-methylacetamide.

Compound 5. The absorptions in the region in Figure 13.33 indi-
cate that the compound has hydrogens attached to carbons and
to carbons The absorptions at and indi-
cate that the compound contains a benzene ring. The absorption at for
the carbonyl group indicates that the compound is a ketone and that the carbonyl
group is not directly attached to the benzene ring. The absorption at
indicates that the compound contains a methyl group. The compound is 1-phenyl-
2-butanone.
