Organic Flashcards
1
Q
TMS
A
Si(CH3)4 - 12 equivalent H’s in same chem environment
non-toxic and inert - wont react w/ sample + 1 signal
‘calibrates’
2
Q
n+1
A
no. neighbouring non eq H's + 1 = 1 singlet = 2 doublet = 3 triplet = 4 quartet
3
Q
running a spectrum
A
dissolve solvent + put in tube
placed in a machine which uses radio waves in strong mag field
4
Q
chemical shift
A
field for tms - field measured / fieled for TMS X 10^6
high electronegativity = greater shift
