Essay

Propose a structure that fits the following spectroscopic data:
C₅H₁₀O
IR: 1717 cm⁻¹
Broadband decoupled ¹³C NMR: 13.70,17.41,29.78,45.71,208.93 $\delta$
DEPT experiments show: signals at 13.70,29.78 $\delta$ as CH₃ and signals at 17.41,45.71 $\delta$ as CH₂

Definitions:

Axon Terminal

The very end of the axon of a neuron, where neurotransmitters are released to communicate with other neurons.

Dendrite

Branch-like extensions of a neuron that receive signals from other neurons.

Neural Message

The process by which nerve cells (neurons) communicate information through electrical and chemical signals.

Resting Potential

The state of a neuron when it is not being stimulated or activated, characterized by a negative charge inside the cell relative to the outside.
