Complete the following statement - All nuclei with the same chemical environment have the same __________ ___________ | Chemical Shift |
How many peaks (not including splitting) are found in the 1H NMR spectrum of butanoic acid? | 4 |
How many peaks (not including splitting) are found in the 1H NMR spectrum of ethyl ethanoate? | 3 |
How many peaks (not including splitting) are found in the 1H NMR spectrum of methyl propanoate? | 3 |
How many peaks (not including splitting) are found in the 1H NMR spectrum of propyl methanoate? | 4 |
How many peaks are found in the 13C NMR spectrum of butanoic acid? | 4 |
How many peaks are found in the 13C NMR spectrum of ethyl ethanoate? | 4 |
How many peaks are found in the 13C NMR spectrum of methyl propanoate? | 4 |
How many peaks are found in the 13C NMR spectrum of propyl methanoate? | 4 |
In 1H NMR Spectroscopy what does the integration data tell us? | Relative number of equivalent H atoms in the molecule |
In 1H NMR Spectroscopy what does the splittin pattern tell us? | The number of adjacent, non-equivalent protons according to the n + 1 rule |
In NMR Spectroscopy what does the number of peaks relate to? | The number of different environments |
In NMR Spectroscopy what the chemical shift tell us? | The molecular environment |
What is the n + 1 rule? | It gives the number of peaks into which the signal of the neighbouring environment will be split |
What is TMS? | Tetramethylsilane. Its used as the standard for NMR Spectroscopy and its peak is set to zero on the chemical shift scale |
Why are the advantages of TMS? | Volatile, inert, it has signals that are well to the right of the majority of the peaks in organic chemistry and it has one environment |
Why is deuterated trichloromethane used as the solvent in 1H NMR spectroscopy (instead of undeuterated trichloromethane)? | Deuterium is not NMR active and therefore doesn’t show up on the spectrum - it is still used in 13C but the peak can removed by the computer software |
