C11H15NO

C11H15NO is a molecular formula that represents a variety of organic compounds. Because the formula only specifies the number and type of atoms present, it does not uniquely identify a single substance. Numerous isomers, differing in their structural arrangement, can share this same molecular formula.

The presence of carbon (C), hydrogen (H), nitrogen (N), and oxygen (O) suggests the potential for functional groups commonly found in organic chemistry. These could include amines, alcohols, ethers, ketones, aldehydes, amides, or combinations thereof. The specific properties and reactivity of any given C11H15NO compound would depend entirely on its structural formula and the nature of the functional groups present.

Without further spectroscopic or chemical information (e.g., NMR, IR, mass spectrometry data, or a known chemical name), it is impossible to identify the specific compound represented by C11H15NO. The formula simply serves as a constraint on the possible molecular structures. It is used to narrow the search for a specific compound or to characterize a mixture of compounds.
