Answer:

The product is cyclohexanol

Explanation:

Firstly,

A ketone undergo a borohydride reduction reaction to form an alcohol as below,

R-CO-R'  ⇒ R-CO(OH)-R'

  1. IR Spectrum confirms that alcohol group is existed with the peak at 3400 cm⁻¹
  2. From 1H-NMR, the product has 10 hydrogen atoms, the MS suggest that the formula is C₅H₁₀O (M = 86). With this formula, the alcohol is monosaturated. Since, the substance already underwent reduction reaction, the only way to suggest a monosaturated compound is a cyclic alcohol. So the compound is cyclopentanol.
  3. Check with other spectroscopic properties,
  • 3 signals of 13C NMR confirms the structure is symmetrical, δ 24.2, (-<u>C</u>H₂-CH₂-CH(CH₂-)-OH), δ 35.5 (-CH₂-<u>C</u>H₂-CH(CH₂-)-OH), δ 73.3 (-CH₂-CH₂-<u>C</u>H(CH₂-)-OH).
  • 1H NMR confirms,

        1.56 δ (4H, triplet) - (-C<u>H</u>₂-CH₂-CH-OH) ; triplet as coupling with 2 H,

        1.78 δ (4H, multiplet)  - (-CH₂-C<u>H</u>₂-CH-OH); multiplet as coupling with 2H of CH₂, 1 H of CH

         3.24 δ (1H, quintet); - (-CH₂-CH₂-C<u>H</u>(CH₂-)-OH), coupling with4 H of 2 group of CH₂

         3.58 δ (1H, singlet); - (-CH₂-CH₂-CH(CH₂-)-O<u>H</u>), hydrogen of alcohol group, not tend to coupling with other hydrogen

In which volcanic eruption is pyroclastic materials released
juin [17]


There are many kinds of pyroclastic material ejected during a volcanic eruption. Ash is the most common pyroclastic rock material ejected during an eruption. Volcanic ash is so fine that it can be blown into the atmosphere and picked up by the jet stream where it can circle the Earth for several years.
