Answer:
The answer is 3-Phenylpropanoic acid (see attached structure)
Explanation:
From spectral data:
3005 cm-1 ⇒ carboxylic acid (broad band)
1670 cm-1 ⇒ C=C
1603 cm-1 ⇒ Aromatic C-C bond
H NMR frequency at 2.6 ppm, singlet, ⇒ OH with no surrounding protons, possible deshielding (clearer investigation of spectrum would be expedient).
Hence, our C9H10O2 compound has an aromatic ring and carboxylic acid group attached to it.
