- The 13C NMR spectrum of ethanoic acid (acetic acid) shows a quartet centred at δ = 21 with a splitting of 130 Hz. When the same spectrum is recorded using proton decoupling, the multiplet collapses to a single line. Another quartet, but with a much smaller spacing, is also seen centred at δ =178; this quartet collapses when decoupling is used. Explain these observations.arrow_forwardCovalent bonds in a molecule absorb radiation in the IR region and vibrate at characteristic frequencies. (a) The C---O bond absorbs radiation of wavelength 9.6 mm. What frequency (in s-1) corresponds to that wavelength? (b) The H---Cl bond has a frequency of vibration of 8.652x1013 Hz. What wavelength (in mm) corresponds to that frequency?arrow_forwardThe organic compound 1,4-dimethylbenzene (also known as p-xylene) has the formula (CH3)2C6H4. Its structure has two CH3 (methyl) groups substituted at opposite positions on the benzene (C6H6) ring. Predict the number of peaks in the low-resolution proton NMR spectrum of this compound and the relative areas of the peaks.arrow_forward
- Suppose that hydrogen is replaced by deuterium in 1H35CI. Would you expect the J = 1←O transition to move to higher or lower wavenumber?arrow_forwardThe 13C NMR spectrum of fluoroethanoic acid shows a multiplet centred at δ = 79. When the same spectrum is recorded using proton decoupling, the multiplet collapses to a doublet with a splitting of 160 Hz. Another multiplet, but with much smaller splittings, is also seen centred at δ =179; this multiplet collapses to a doublet when decoupling is used. Explain these observations.arrow_forwardA proton jumps between two sites with δ = 2.7 and δ = 4.8. At what rate of interconversion will the two signals collapse to a single line in a spectrometer operating at 550 MHz?arrow_forward
- What frequency (in MHz) is required to cause a proton to flip its spin when it is exposed to a magnetic field of 1 T?arrow_forward2. (a) Calculate the spin only magnetic moment of: 0= V O SO₂arrow_forwardA C¬D (carbon–deuterium) bond is electronically much like a C¬H bond, and it has a similar stiffness, measured bythe spring constant, k. The deuterium atom has twice the mass (m) of a hydrogen atom, however.(a) The infrared absorption frequency is approximately proportional to 1k>m, when one of the bonded atoms is muchheavier than the other, and m is the lighter of the two atoms (H or D in this case). Use this relationship to calculate theIR absorption frequency of a typical C¬D bond. Use 3000 cm-1as a typical C¬H absorption frequency.(b) A chemist dissolves a sample in deuterochloroform (CDCl3) and then decides to take the IR spectrum and simplyevaporates most of the CDCl3. What functional group will appear to be present in this IR spectrum as a result of theCDCl3 impurity?arrow_forward
