DEFINITION 3 Determine the mass of the molecule Use Nitrogen Rule to identify whether the peak with the highest m/z ratio is the M+ peak. Deduce molecular formula using the Rule of 13 MM/13 = n + (r/13) CnHn+r Fragments - most stable carbocations (and radicals) are generated Can give idea about how the molecule was connected Can often identify constitutional isomers Identify isotopes based on natural abundance ratios TERM 4
DEFINITION 4 Chemical shift measures the degree of shielding for a nucleus in a molecule.Protons and 13C in different environments are shielded to greater or lesser degrees; they have different chemical shifts. is measured relative to a standard, trimethylsilane (TMS), for which the is set to 0. The value is usually reported in ppm unit to avoid the confusion caused by using different spectrometer. In a NMR spectrum, the nuclei that are less shielded will appear at the downfield or low field (the left side) of the spectrum; whereas the peaks for more shielded nuclei appear at the upfield or high field (right side) of the spectrum. TERM 5
DEFINITION 5 Nuclei in different environments experience different degrees of shielding and have different chemical shifts. Electronegative (EN) substituents decrease the shielding, leading to large. The EN effect is cumulative but diminishes with distance. Hybridization of carbon influence sp2 and sp hybridized carbons are more deshielded than sp3 hybridized carbons due to high EN and the magnetic anisotropy deshielding by the electrons. However, hydrogens attached to sp hybridized carbon are more shielded than those attached to sp2 hybridized carbon due to the magnetic anisotropy shielding by the triple bond electrons.
TERM 7
DEFINITION 7 Protons on adjacent carbons that are chemically nonequivalent will split each other to n+1 number of peaks (n equals to the number of equivalent Hs on adjacent carbons) Chemically equivalent Hs do not couple with each other. Protons farther away usually do not couple. Two interacting Hs split each other with the same coupling constant (J). Relative ratio of peaks in a multiplet depends on number of spin states of the neighboring hydrogens, which is predicted by the Pascals Triangle. Every splitting can be broken down into a series of doublets. TERM 8

Species that contain a divalent carbon (carbon with two bonds and six electrons). Carbenes are very reactive: Normally cannot be isolated and stored; they are intermediates in certain reactions. Carbenes react with alkenes to give cyclopropanes Reaction is stereospecific syn addition CHX3 + KOH --> CX2 +KX + H2O R'- CH=CH-R" + CHX3 --KOH--> Three membered ring TERM 17
DEFINITION 17 Retrosynthetic analysis is the process by which we plan a synthesis by reasoning backward from the desired product (the "target molecule"). Step 1: Locate the carbon that bears the hydroxyl group. Step 2: Disconnect one of the groups attached to this carbon. What remains are on the carbonyl compound that can be used to prepare the alcohol. The detached part will be on the Grignard reagent.
