    Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy: Purpose: Connectivity, Map of C-H framework Four Factors of Proton NMR (PMR OR 1H NMR): 1. Symmetry: Number of chemically different protons (symmetry) as shown by

    number of signals 2. Chemical Shift Value (X-axis): provides information regarding what kind of

    chemical environment the proton is in (electron-rich or electron-poor). 3. Integration: Electronic measurement of peak areas: provides you with the number

    of chemically equivalent protons producing each signal on the spectrum. 4. Splitting Patterns: Complexity of peak patterns - information is gained regarding

    the connectivity of neighboring protons. General Notes:

    1. We usually study one type of nucleus at a time. In Organic Chemistry, we focus on the hydrogen-1 isotope (1H) and the Carbon-13 (13C) isotope as they are the most widely used nuclei in the spectroscopy of organic compounds.

    2. The position on the chart at which a nucleus absorbs is called its “chemical shift”. The X-axis of a proton NMR spectrum ranges from 0-10 (or as high as 14) ppm. The unit “ppm” stands for “parts per million” and is a standardized unit for the signal frequency.

    3. The area under the peaks is calculated by the instrument and the ratio of protons per peak is determined based on the peak area. Integration.

    4. On most of the unknown spectra, a calibration peak will be visible. There are two possibilities for calibration: a. Tetramethylsilane (TMS) – External standard that was added to all samples for Qual Lab. The 12 hydrogens of TMS are assigned a value of 0.0000 ppm.

    b. Deuterated chloroform, CDCl3, contains a trace amount of CHCl3 – and that proton has a chemical shift value of 7.2600 ppm, thus acting like an internal standard. Deuterated solvents must be used to prevent interference of a molecule’s spectrum with that of the solvent. Deuterium is the H2 isotope and has no magnetic field generation.

    How do you know that the one on the far left is an OH?

    Reminder about alcohols (amine and carboxylic acid protons): “exchangeable protons” Under normal, slightly acidic conditions of CDCl3, these protons “hop on and off” on a regular basis. This distorts the peak of the proton, broadening it so it is not as sharp in appearance as the other protons.

    In the lab, an easy way to distinguish an alcohol proton from one that is not exchangeable is to add deuterated water (D2O) to the sample. Deuterium does not have a nucleus that can generate a magnetic field so it will not show up on the NMR spectrum. If deuterium substitutes for a proton, the signal will disappear!

    Example: Consider the proton NMR of isobutyl alcohol:

    Now view deuterated isobutyl alcohol: What’s missing?

    Integration Ratio – Ratio of Protons for the signals on a 1H NMR spectrum

    • Peak areas are electronically measured by instrument • To determine the ratio of protons producing signals, divide each peak area by

    smallest area to determine whole number ratio of peaks Total of Protons should equal number of protons in molecular formula Determine the integration values for each signal in the following:

    Splitting Patterns – Spin-Spin Coupling Splitting Patterns are caused by the interaction of the magnetic fields of neighboring nuclei. In Proton NMR, only the magnetic fields of adjacent protons can interact. • Tells you how many protons are on adjacent carbon atoms • Always remember that splitting can only occur between NON-Equivalent Protons

    • N+1 Rule – The signal of a proton (or set of equivalent protons), with N number of protons on an adjacent carbon atom, will be split into N+1 peaks

    Predict the NMR spectrum for bromoethane:

    CH3-CH2-Br

    Spectrum:

    Normally, you will be viewing proton NMR spectra. You need to analyze the splitting patterns of peaks to determine the molecular fragments of a molecule you are attempting to solve. Splitting Patterns: Singlet (symbolized as “s”): N+1 = 1 therefore N = 0, or no neighboring protons. Doublet (symbolized as “d”): N+1 = 2 therefore N = 1, where a CH or OH may be in the adjacent position

    Note the “W” coupling occurring… Ortho: 1,2-disubstituted

    If disubstituted “ortho” with the same group, a plane of symmetry would produce two types of protons and each will appear as a doublet.

    1,2-dibromobenzene:

    If disubstituted “ortho” with two different groups, no plane of symmetry exists so all four aromatic protons are different and would causing all signals to be split. 1-bromo-2-hydroxybenzene:

    Again, “W” coupling is occurring…

    With symmetry, there are only two types of protons. Ex: 1,3-dibromo-2-chlorobenzene

    The goal for proton NMR is to be able to interpret and reconstruct the molecule’s structure. Now, combine splitting patterns with the integration (shown in brackets below). What molecular fragment does each of the following represent? a. [1H] q b. [2H] dt c. [1H] septet Determine the fragments, and the structure, for the following NMR spectrum of an alcohol, if the molecular formula is C6H14O:

    Assembling your fragments requires up to three pieces of information: Integration (tells you the number of protons in the actual signal), Splitting Pattern (tells you how many protons are next door) and Chemical Shift. Chemical Shift Integration Splitting Pattern Fragments Things to remember: 1. Begin by first identifying the number of signals and where on the X-axis they exist (Chemical Shift). Be flexible! Sometimes multiple functional groups are present and protons aren’t always where you expect them to be. 2. Calculate the integration ratio. Identify how many of each type you have. Recognize the number of CH3 versus CH2, etc. that you have in your molecule (integration ratio). Keep in mind that signals in the aromatic region are NEVER CH3 or CH2’s. 3. Splitting patterns are the toughest to interpret. Singlets, doublets and triplets are usually straightforward although triplets are often doublet-doublets in disguise (1 CH2 neighbor versus 2 CH neighbors). Quartets (CH3 neighbor) are often Doublet-Triplets in disguise (telling you there is a CH and a CH2 set of neighbors). Check back with your integration values to see what options are possible. Assign something as a multiplet if you don’t really know what it is. Seek help if necessary! Don’t flounder lost until the last moment… Once the pieces are built, cross off (mentally or literally?) the extra’s that appear multiple times (CH3-CH2 and CH2-CH3, for instance). Narrow down to the correct number of carbons in your molecular formula. But for heaven’s sake, don’t violate the octet rule!
