16
Q

On a C-13 NMR, what does the ppm shift indicate

A

What atom each carbon in each enviroment is bonded to

17
Q

On a C-13 NMR, what are all ppm shifts relative to

A

The TMS peak

18
Q

On a Proton-NMR, what do the number of peaks on the spectrum tell you

A

The number of proton enviroments

19
Q

On a Proton-NMR, what does the ppm shift indicate

A

To what atom, each proton in the environment is bonded to

20
Q

On a Proton-NMR, what does the length of the peak indicate

A

How many protons are part of that environment (done as a ratio)

21
Q

On a Proton-NMR, what does the splitting pattern indicate

A

How many hydrogens are on the neighbouring carbon atom

22
Q

On a Proton-NMR, what rule is used to determine splitting patterns

A

n+1 rule

23

Splitting Pattern: 2 peak

A

Doublet

25

27
Q

On a Proton-NMR, what does a large splitting pattern indicate

A

Methyl groups

28
Q

Why are deuterated solvents used in NMR spectras

A

They don’t have hydrogen in, so don’t show up on the spectrum

29
Q

What region of the electromagnetic spectrum is used on in Proton-NMR

A

Radiowaves

30
Q

What is D2O added to Proton-NMR spectras sometimes, and why

A
  • O-H and N-H peaks can appear anywhere
  • D2O removes these peaks
31
Q

What solvent is most commonly used in NMR

A

CDCl3

32
Q

Proton NMR: What does symmetry in environments at c7-8ppm suggest

A

Benzene ring

33
Q

Proton NMR: What does a singlet with 3H in the enviroment suggest

A

Methyl group (-CH3)

34
Q

Proton NMR: What does a environment with 2H in by itself suggest

A

-CH2

35
Q

Before fully developing an NMR response, what must always be stated first

A

The number of environments that there are

36
Q

After the whole number of environments have been given, what information must be given about each environment for a thorough explaination

A
  • Splitting patter - so how many H on adjacent C atoms
  • Peak area - so how many H in that enviroment
  • PPM of peak - due to which bond present
