The 1H spectrum shows three peaks in the range d0-3 which are due to the alkane side-chain. These peaks have an intensity ratio of 2:2:3 which is only consistent with a straight alkyl side-chain. The 13C spectrum shows three peaks in the range d10-40 due to the alkyl side-chain. This is consistent with the straight chain isomer as there are three chemically different carbon atoms, giving three different peaks. However, this is not consistent with the branched isomer as the two terminal methyl groups would be chemically equivalent, giving only two peaks. |

Changing times: Although some modern items such as musical instruments have been embraced, islanders cling to many traditions, including keeping pigs as pets

Is that a googly? Cricket is hugely popular and was introduced by colonial authorities. Banned from going to war, the islanders settle their differences with a game

Magic: Although many, among them seven-year-old Salome, go to school, the Trobriand Islanders continue to believe in magic and believe it is responsible for conception

Delicate: Teenage girls wear tortoiseshell earrings which they eventually pass on to their daughters, while traditional kula boats come covered in cowrie shells
+27
Jewellery: Most of the Trobriand Islanders sport elaborate bracelets and necklaces, all of which are made from natural materials such as shells, stones and feathers

Rare: Because the islands are coral atolls, anything made from stone is considered rare and valuable. This stone was polished and given as a wedding gift

Excitement: The weekly flight from Port Moresby, capital of Papua New Guinea, is the most exciting moment of the week for many and draws huge crowds

War: During World War II, thousands of American soldiers were stationed on the Trobriand Islands. Vintage dog tags can be picked up for as little as 20p

Remote: The idyllic islands are home to the Trobriand Islanders, who still live in much the same way as they always have - including fishing from wooden canoes
