Explanation / Answer

After observing the above spectrum, it is found that the given compound is alcohol and aromatic in nature as the broad band at 3308 cm-1 corresponds to -OH group and the peaks in the range 1450-1600 cm-1 correspomds to aromatic skeletal vibrations. The compound may also have -C=N group as the peak at 1638 cm-1 corresponds to it.

But without NMR or any other spectral technique it is not possible to predict the structure of given compound only on the basis of IR spectral techniques.
