A compound with formula C₅H₁₀O gives two signals only,one a triplet and the other a quartet,in the ¹H NMR spectrum.Which of these structures is a possible one for this compound?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In the ¹H NMR spectrum, the triplet signal is likely from the methyl group (₁₀) and the quartet is likely from the ethyl group (C₅). This matches with structure A, where there is a methyl and ethyl group present. The other structures have different combinations of functional groups that would give different NMR signals.
