Chapter 12C, Problem 48P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: An explanation corresponding to the fact that the carbonyl carbon of an aldehyde or ketone absorbs farther downfield than the carbonyl carbon of an ester in a 13C NMR spectrum is to be stated.

Concept introduction: Depending upon the electron density or the concentration of electron around carbon, the chemical shift values of carbon varies relative to the reference signal. The terms, upfield and downfield expresses the relative location of signals. The meaning of upfield is to the right and of downfield is to the left.
