nmr 3 Flashcards
why do we use H1 nmr aka proton nmrrr
bc its ubiquitous - its present in nearly all organic and inorganic metal complexes
spin 1/2 nuc gives well defined signals which helps with structural interpretation
abundant isotope - H1 is way more abundant than H2 or D
highly receptive // how sensitive it isif all other parameters are the same
what do we use as a referance in nmr
tetramethylsilane , SiMe4 TMS
what chemical shift does TMS have
its said to have a precession frequency, but the chemical shift is said to be 0.
what is the typical ranges of A CHEMICAL SHIFT in nmr spectrum
0-10 ppm
majority of compounds are found in this region.
H2 is also known as
deuterium
what type of solvent do we use in H1 nmr // general
we use deuterated solvents - solvents where most of the H’s are H2 (99.6%),, which are invisible in H1 nmr spec.
some contain inpurities (some H1) which shows up as an impurity signal.
give a deuterated solvent example and their impure versions.
CDCl3 = CHCl3
C6D6 = C6D5H
the H1’s will give a visible impure signal
why do we need to use a deuterated solvent
bc normally in a sample,, there are more H1’s in the solvent than the analyte.
meaning the sample will be analysed.
we use deuterated solvents so that only the H1’s are analysed by H1 nmr.
in CHDCl3,, what will the H couple to
it will couple to the deuterium.
which has a spin of (I=1)
and then 2nI+1 -> 3
so the impurity will be a triplet
the closer the electronegative group,,
the more e- it attracts,, the less shielded the H is,, the larger precession frequency it has,, the larger the chemical shift it has
order Ch, CH2 and CH3 in terms of which one has the greater chemical shift
CH
CH2
CH3
what are the effects of a functional group
theyre additive
so u have to add the effects of both fg and their effects to the chemical shift values
aldehyde chem shift
10ppm
benzene chem shift
8ppm
alkene chem shift
6ppm
heteroatom on same C to the H were measuring chemical shift
4ppm
heteroatom on adjacent c to the H that were measuring the chemical shift of
2ppm
normal alkane
1ppm
