Well I personally have no clue on the problem unless you can show us any work you have done on those problems...
 
C'mon!

6B, #1 is too easy. What functional group do you know of that will give you a sharp singlet (proton spectrum) way down at 11.5 ppm? Treat the group of peaks at 0.9 and 2.3 ppm as triplets and the absorbance at 1.6 ppm as a multiplet. The C13 spectrum has a carbon way down at 180 ppm. Four types of carbon are present.

#2 is also easy. You have a singlet way down at 11 ppm. Treat the absorbance at 1ppm as a doublet and the multiplet at 2.4 as a quartet. The C13 spectrum has a carbon way down at 205 ppm. Only three types of carbon are present in roughly a 2:1:1 ratio.

6A, #4 can be divined by the proton spectrum alone. Three carbons with three types of protons. One is a triplet at the typical place you find methyl groups next to methylene protons. Nuff said...
