. Compound B has molecular formula C9H12. It shows five signals in the 1H-NMR spectrum - a doublet of integral 6 at 1.22 ppm, a septet of integral 1 at 2.86 ppm, a singlet of integral 1 at 5.34 ppm, a doublet of integral 2 at 6.70 ppm, and a doublet of integral 2 at 7.03 ppm. The 13C-NMR spectrum of B shows six unique signals (23.9, 34.0, 115.7, 128.7, 148.9, and 157.4). Identify B and explain your reasoning.
