NMR active nuclei ? The main important parameter which defines whether a nucleus is NMR active or NMR inactive is the spin quantum no. I. Spin quantum number I is related to the spin of the nuclei. Those nuclei which have even mass number and even atomic number are NMR inactive. Why? Such type of nuclei possess zero spin quantum no. Examples: 1H – Atomic no. 1, Mass no. 1. I = ½. (NMR active) 6C12 – Atomic no. 6, Mass no. 12. I = 0. (NMR inactive) 6C13 – Atomic no. 6, Mass no. 13. I = ½. (NMR active) CHEM-BHAV UNI
Elements in Organic Chemistry There are 4 important elements in Org. Chemistry: (frequency at 2.35T) • H : Best NMR element • 1H , I = ½(sharp lines),a = 99.98% • 2H , I =1 (broad lines), a = 0.02%, Q=0.038 • C : • 12C , I = 0 (no signal in NMR) • 13C ,I = ½(sharp lines),a = 1.1% , • N : • 14N , I =1 (broad lines), a = 99.6%, Q=1.0 • 15N, I = ½(sharp lines),a = 0.4% , • O : • 16O , I = 0 (no signal in NMR) • 17O , I =5/2 (broad lines), a = 0.04%, Q=-0.037 CHEM-BHAV UNI

How NMR is applied? • NMR spectroscopy involves detection of energy levels of the nucleus created in presence of magnetic field by phenomenon of resonance. • The characteristics of these energy levels are governed by the chemical environment. • Different peaks (& characteristics) for different functional groups, e.g. OH, CHO, COOH, aromatic, amine, steroid, alkaloid.

NMR Spectra of Ethanol: Signatures (function of environment)
Interpreting NMR Spectra • Counting Hydrogen environments – One molecule can contain many hydrogen environments. Each environment will release a different frequency of energy when it drops down from its excited state to line up with the magnetic field. 2 x H environments so 2 peaks in NMR spectrum. 4 x H environments so 4 peaks in NMR spectrum. 3 x H environments so 3 peaks in NMR spectrum.
Needs high frequency energy to flip here, so high frequency energy released when it flips back. Flips quite easily – needs low frequency energy. 1) The environment of the Hydrogen atom • The frequency of energy needed to flip the magnet (Spin) is different for hydrogen atoms that are in different positions. • So the type of energy given off tells us the position of the hydrogen in the molecule.
2) How many hydrogen atoms are in each position If one hydrogen releases a set amount of energy when it falls back in line (eg 2 units). Then 3 hydrogen atoms will release 3 times that amount when they fall in line (6 units). This affects the size of the peak in the NMR spectrum. The more hydrogen atoms, the bigger the peak!

A note for analyst: Coupling with Deuterium (& 13C) Most solvents used in NMR are deuterated (usually to 99%) Therefore, in proton NMR, we observe residual protons with Deuterium coupling (when appropriate). HCD2OD HCD2SOCD3 H D D2 2nI + 1 lines
