Explain how the NMR spectra of (a) 3-methyl-2-buten-2-ol and (b) 1,2,2-trimethyl-1- propanol would change following a D2O shake. CHARACTERISTIC FUNCTIONAL-GROUP 13.7 NMR ABSORPTIONS This section surveys the important NMR absorptions of the major functional groups that we’ve already studied. The NMR spectra of other functional groups will be considered in the chapters devoted to those groups. A summary table of chemical shift information is given in Appendix III. A. NMR Spectra of Alkenes Two characteristic proton NMR absorptions for alkenes are the absorptions for the protons on the double bond, called vinylic protons (red in the following structures), and the protons on carbons adjacent to the double bond, called allylic protons (blue in the following structures). Don’t confuse these two types of protons. Typical alkene chemical shifts are illustrated in the following structures and are summarized in Fig. 13.4. vinylic proton allylic protons d 4.92 d 1.99 d 0.88 H d 5.58 terminal H CH2 CH2 CH3 vinylic Ld 1.32 L M protons $CCA ) (13.12) y d 4.88 HH) $ d 5.68 "H d 1.97 internal vinylic proton allylic proton In these structures, allylic protons have greater chemical shifts than ordinary alkyl protons, but considerably smaller chemical shifts than vinylic protons. Additionally, the chemical shifts of internal vinylic protons are greater than those of terminal vinylic protons. Recall from Sec. 13.3C that the same trend of chemical shift with branching is evident in the relative shifts of methyl, methylene, and methine protons on saturated carbon atoms. The chemical shifts of vinylic protons are much greater than would be predicted from the electronegativity of the alkene functional group and can be understood in the following way. Imagine that an alkene molecule in an NMR spectrometer is oriented with respect to the exter- nal applied field B0 as shown in Figure 13.14. The applied field induces a circulation of the p electrons in closed loops above and below the plane of the alkene. This electron circulation gives rise to an induced magnetic field Bi that opposes the applied field B0 at the center of the 13_BRCLoudon_pgs5-0.qxd 12/9/08 1:13 PM Page 613 13.7 CHARACTERISTIC FUNCTIONAL-GROUP NMR ABSORPTIONS 613 induced field Bi opposes B0 at the p bond Bi (induced field) induced p-electron circulation H H induced field Bi reinforces C C B0 at the vinylic proton H H B0 (external applied field) Figure 13.14 In an alkene,the induced field Bi (red) of the circulating p electrons augments the external applied field at the vinylic protons.As a result,vinylic protons have NMR absorptions at relatively large chemical shift (high frequency). loop. This induced field can be described as contours of closed circles. Although the induced field opposes the applied field B0 in the region of the p bond, the curvature of the induced field causes it to lie in the same direction as B0 at the vinylic protons. The induced field, therefore, augments the local field at the vinylic protons. As a result, the vinylic protons are subjected to a greater local field. This means that a greater frequency is required to bring them into reso- nance (Eq. 13.4). Consequently, their NMR absorptions occur at relatively high chemical shift. Because molecules in solution are constantly in motion and tumbling wildly, at any given time only a small fraction of the alkene molecules are oriented with respect to the external applied field as shown in Fig. 13.14. The chemical shift of a vinylic proton is an average over all orientations of the molecule. However, this particular orientation makes such a large contribution that it dominates the chemical shift. Splitting between vinylic protons in alkenes depends strongly on the geometrical relation- ship of the coupled protons. Typical coupling constants are given in Table 13.3 on p. 614. The spectra shown in Fig. 13.15 on p. 615, illustrate the very important observation that vinylic protons of cis-alkenes have smaller coupling constants than those of their trans isomers. (The same point is evident in the coupling constants of cis and trans protons shown in Figs. 13.9 and 13.10.) These coupling constants, along with the characteristic AC H bending bands from IR spectroscopy (Sec. 12.4C), provide important ways to determineL alkene stereochemistry. The very weak geminal splitting between vinylic protons on the same carbon stands in con- trast to the much larger cis and trans splittings. Geminal splitting is also illustrated in Figs. 13.9 and 13.10. The last two entries in Table 13.3 show that small splitting in alkenes is sometimes ob- served between protons separated by more than three bonds. Recall that splitting over these distances is usually not observed in saturated compounds. These long-distance interactions between protons are transmitted by the p electrons. 13_BRCLoudon_pgs5-0.qxd 12/9/08 1:13 PM Page 614 614 CHAPTER 13 • NUCLEAR MAGNETIC RESONANCE SPECTROSCOPY TABLE 13.3 Coupling Constants for Proton Splitting in Alkenes Relationship of protons Name of relationship Coupling constant J, Hz HH $CCA ) cis 6–14 ) $ H $CCA ) trans 11–18 ) $H H $CCA ) geminal 0–3.5 ) $H H $CCA ) vicinal 4–10 ) H ) "$C % $ $ $C A C $ four-bond (allylic) 0–3.0 H C H % % (double bond$ can be cis or trans) $ % H C L $C A C $ five-bond 0–1.5 H $ $C % % (double bond can$ be cis or trans) In many spectra, geminal, four-bond, and five-bond splittings are not readily discernible as clearly separated lines, but instead are manifested as perceptibly broadened peaks. Such is the case, for example, in the NMR spectrum in Fig. 13.16 (Problem 13.24). PROBLEM 13.24 Propose a structure for a compound with the formula C7H14 with the NMR spectrum shown in Fig. 13.16. Explain in detail how you arrived at your structure. B. NMR Spectra of Alkanes and Cycloalkanes Because all of the protons in a typical alkane are in very similar chemical environments, the NMR spectra of alkanes and cycloalkanes cover a very narrow range of chemical shifts, typi- cally d 0.7–1.7. Because of this narrow range, the splitting in many of these spectra shows extensive non-first-order behavior. One interesting exception to these generalizations is the chemical shifts of protons on a cy- clopropane ring, which are unusual for alkanes; they absorb at unusually low chemical shifts, 13_BRCLoudon_pgs5-0.qxd 12/9/08 1:13 PM Page 615 13.7 CHARACTERISTIC FUNCTIONAL-GROUP NMR ABSORPTIONS 615 Ha Hb Ha Hb J 8.3 Hz J 13.5 Hz = = Ha Hb Cl Hb $CCA ) $CCA ) a Cl) $CO2H H) $CO2H cis trans d 6.86 d 6.25 d 7.51 d 6.26 (a) (b) Figure 13.15 The NMR spectra of the vinylic protons (color) of cis-trans isomers.

As a result, these protons are subjected to a smaller local field, and their chemical shifts are decreased. C. NMR Spectra of Alkyl Halides and Ethers Several NMR spectra of alkyl halides and ethers were presented in developing the principles of NMR earlier in this chapter. The chemical shifts caused by the halogens are usually in pro- portion to their electronegativities. For the most part, chloro groups and ether oxygens have about the same chemical-shift effect on neighboring protons (Fig. 13.4). However, epoxides, like cyclopropanes, have considerably smaller chemical shifts than their open-chain analogs. d 3.65 d 2.95 d 2.4, 2.7 $ $ H3C CH O CH CH3 H3C CH CH2 L L LL LLO "CH3 "CH3 An interesting type of splitting is observed in the NMR spectra of compounds containing fluorine. The common isotope of fluorine (19F) has a nuclear spin. Proton resonances are split by neighboring fluorine in the same general way that they are split by neighboring protons; the same n 1 splitting rule applies. For example, the proton in HCCl2F appears as a doublet cen- tered at+ d 7.43 with a large coupling constant JHF of 54 Hz.

  • 4 Nuclear Magnetic Resonance
    Chapter 4, page 1 4 Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Pieter Zeeman observed in 1896 the splitting of optical spectral lines in the field of an electromagnet. Since then, the splitting of energy levels proportional to an external magnetic field has been called the "Zeeman effect". The "Zeeman resonance effect" causes magnetic resonances which are classified under radio frequency spectroscopy (rf spectroscopy). In these resonances, the transitions between two branches of a single energy level split in an external magnetic field are measured in the megahertz and gigahertz range. In 1944, Jevgeni Konstantinovitch Savoiski discovered electron paramagnetic resonance. Shortly thereafter in 1945, nuclear magnetic resonance was demonstrated almost simultaneously in Boston by Edward Mills Purcell and in Stanford by Felix Bloch. Nuclear magnetic resonance was sometimes called nuclear induction or paramagnetic nuclear resonance. It is generally abbreviated to NMR. So as not to scare prospective patients in medicine, reference to the "nuclear" character of NMR is dropped and the magnetic resonance based imaging systems (scanner) found in hospitals are simply referred to as "magnetic resonance imaging" (MRI). 4.1 The Nuclear Resonance Effect Many atomic nuclei have spin, characterized by the nuclear spin quantum number I. The absolute value of the spin angular momentum is L =+h II(1). (4.01) The component in the direction of an applied field is Lz = Iz h ≡ m h. (4.02) The external field is usually defined along the z-direction. The magnetic quantum number is symbolized by Iz or m and can have 2I +1 values: Iz ≡ m = −I, −I+1, ..., I−1, I.

Abstract: Organic halides and other organic compounds that contain electronegative elements, have a strong chemical shift and a brilliant NMR spectrum will prevail. Relationship between 1H, 13C NMR chemical shift and Electronegativity in some simple R-X organic compounds (X=F, Cl, Br, I, O, H, ...R=CH3 or CH3-CH2-) give nonlinear equation, as well as a power series equation appears between nuclear magnetogyric ratio, magnetic shielding constant and chemical shift, which are not included in the theoretical expressions. More investigations required to remove the discrepancy between the theoretical and the experimental results. Keywords: Electronegativity, chemical shift, shielding constant, magnetogyric ratio. I. Introduction Nuclear magnetic resonance, or NMR is a physical phenomenon was observed in 1945[1,2], which occurs when the nuclei of certain atoms, firstly, subject to nuclear Zeeman effect[3,4,5]will Precession with the Larmor frequency [6, 7]. Secondly, exposed to an oscillating electromagnetic field (radio waves), then if the radio wave frequency exactly matches the precession frequency, the resonance phenomenon will happen and this is the so-called nuclear magnetic resonance. However, experimentally, it has been noticed [8, 9, 10] that a nucleus may have a different resonant frequency for a given applied magnetic field in different chemical compounds, this difference in resonant frequency is called the chemical shift or sometimes fine structure.

  • Chemical Shifts
    Chemical shifts Discovered in 1950 by Proctor and Yu based on solution 14N NMR studies of NH4NO3 1 H chemical shifts Empirical correlations between chemical shifts and structure Typical 1H chemical shift values. Proton / ppm Proton / ppm Aldehyde 9.5 - 10.5 CH3 attached to double Aromatic 6.5 - 8.2 bonds/aromatics 1.8 - 2.5 Alkene 4.5 - 6.1 Methyl (CH3–CO) 1.8 - 2.7 Alkyne 2.0 - 3.2 Methylene (CH2–O) ~3.6 - 4.7 Acetal 4.5 - 6.0 Methylene (CH2– R1R2) ~1.3 Alkoxy 3.4 - 4.8 Methine (CH–R1R2R3) ~1.5 Methyl (CH3–R) ~0.9 Cyclopropane 0.22 N-methyl 3.0 - 3.5 Me4Si (TMS) 0.0 Methoxy 3.3 - 3.8 Metal hydride –5 to –20 The influence of the electron density at the proton (Diamagnetic) Shielding of Nucleus by Electrons B o Nucleus Electron (lines of force arising from electron motion) NMR Spectroscopy 1 The applied magnetic field, B0, induces circulations in the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus such that a magnetic moment , opposed to B0, is produced (Lenz's law). Nuclei in a region of high electron density are more shielded from the applied field than those in regions of lower electron density. If inductive effects present in a molecule reduce the electron density in the hydrogen 1s orbital, dishielding (shift to higher frequencies) is expected. CH3F CH3Cl CH3Br CH3I CH3H (CH3) 4.13 2.84 2.45 1.98 0.13 Electonegativity (Pauling) 4.0 3.0 2.8 2.5 2.1 TMS Less screened than TMS More screened than TMS Low field High Field High frequency Low frequency {Most organic protons} {Metal Hydrides} +10 0 -10 Substituents, such as OR or NR2, can act both as an electron withdrawing group (due to electronegativity, thus causing a shift to higher frequencies) and as a donor of lone pairs (if double bonds are present, thus causing a shift to lower frequency).
