As an AI, I cannot analyze a specific compound without any provided data or structure. However, I can help you interpret infrared  IR  spectroscopy data if you provide the relevant peaks and their wavenumbers.In general, some common functional groups and their corresponding IR absorption peaks are:1. O-H  alcohol or phenol : Broad peak around 3200-3600 cm2. N-H  amine or amide : Sharp peak around 3100-3500 cm3. C=O  carbonyl group in aldehyde, ketone, carboxylic acid, ester, or amide : Sharp peak around 1650-1750 cm4. C=C  alkene : Peak around 1620-1680 cm5. CC  alkyne : Peak around 2100-2260 cm6. C-O  ether, ester, or carboxylic acid : Peak around 1000-1300 cm7. C-N  amine, amide, or nitrile : Peak around 1080-1360 cm8. CN  nitrile : Peak around 2210-2260 cmPlease provide the IR peaks and their wavenumbers for the compound you are analyzing, and I can help you identify the functional groups present in it.
