Describe the ¹H NMR spectrum you would expect for each of the following compounds, indicating the relative positions of the signals:

NMR shows a different number of peaks. These are called the splitting patterns in NMR spectroscopy. We know that the simplest signal consists of one line is called a singlet, followed by a doublet, triplet, quartet, and multiplet.

Spitting is caused by the hydrogens on the same or neighboring carbons. Only non-equivalent protons cause splitting.

(a)

As the compound contains a plane of symmetry so the splitting pattern in the compound is as follows;

Compound (a)

Each spectrum is described going from left to right. It shows triplet, triplet.

(b)

-CH₃the group next to oxygen shows singlet. While as we move from left to right the -CH₂ group shows triplet, multiplet, and triplet.

Compound (b)

(c)

The given molecule contains a plane of symmetry so all the hydrogens are equivalent and show singlet.

Compound (c)

(d)

The left side -CH₃group shows singlet while the right side one shows triplet.-CH₂ group show quartet.

Compound (d)

(e)

In the given structure all the -CH₃ and the -CH₂group show singlet as no neighboring hydrogen is present for the coupling.

Compound (e)

(f)

In the given structure two hydrogens showa doublet while one shows a doublet of the doublet.

Compound (f)

(g)

The molecule contain plane of symmetry. The -CH₃group shows triplet while the -CH₂group shows quartet.

Compound (g)

(h)
