N uclear M agnetic R esonance Spectroscopy. The nuclei of interest are primarily hydrogen and carbon 1 H NMR also called PMR 13 C NMR also called CMR. Spinning proton resembles a tiny magnet. Protons in a magnetic field. Field Strength determines energy difference between spin states.

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy The nuclei of interest are primarily hydrogen and carbon 1H NMR also called PMR 13C NMR also called CMR
Field Strength determines energy difference between spin states
NMR Information 1H NMR spectrum contains 3 pieces of information: 1. 2. 3.
Integration of PeaksThe red curves represent the peak areas ( integration)
Peak SplittingThe (n+1) rule indicates the number of protons attached to neighboring carbon atoms A singlet indicates there are no protons on adjacent carbon atom A triplet indicates there are 2 protons on adjacent carbon atom
Two Isomeric Esters C4H8O2 The signals for both spectra are the same: a singlet, triplet & quartet.
Electron Withdrawing Effect triplet and quartet = ethyl pattern
Interpreting Spectra • Look for diagnostic chemical shifts • Look for relative ratios (integration) • Analyze splitting patterns • Consult Tables of chemical shifts and Tables of coupling constants (J values)
