SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on determining the sum of double bonds and rings in the compound C6H9BrO. Participants suggest using chemical analysis methods such as NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) and MS (Mass Spectrometry) to elucidate the structure, as these techniques provide insights into the bonding characteristics. The importance of consulting chemical databases and catalogues for structural information is emphasized, particularly when empirical formulas do not easily translate to structural formulas.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of empirical formulas and structural formulas in organic chemistry
  • Familiarity with NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) spectroscopy
  • Knowledge of MS (Mass Spectrometry) techniques
  • Basic principles of chemical bonding and functional groups
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the application of NMR spectroscopy in determining molecular structure
  • Explore Mass Spectrometry techniques for structural elucidation
  • Learn about chemical databases and catalogues for compound analysis
  • Study the rules of bonding and functional groups in organic compounds
USEFUL FOR

Chemists, organic chemistry students, and researchers involved in structural analysis of organic compounds will benefit from this discussion.

Figuring sum of double bonds and rings ??

Does anyone know how if there is a way to figure out the sum of double bonds and rings of a compound C6H9BrO ?? Lost.. thank you.

This one came up in google :P

Hard to come up with a structural formula from an empirical formula, that's why there are so many chemical analysis methods like NMR/MS.

Double bonds and rings behave differently in spectroscopic analysis, so that would reveal more.

I tried to guess the structure by trial and error heh, knowing some of the bonding rules, but i failed and consulted google, then kicked myself for not remembering the epoxy Oxy type bond.

Maybe there are other structures also, consult a chemical catalogue or database.
