2. Nuclear Magnetic Resonance(NMR) Spectroscopy
v The nuclei of some isotopes, such as 1H and 13C, behave as magnets.
v When 1H or 13C atoms are placed in a magnetic field and irradiated with electromagnetic energy, some frequencies are absorbed (“magnetic resonance”)
v A graph that shows the characteristic energy absorption frequencies and intensities for a sample in a magnetic field is called a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrum

Example of an NMR spectrum 1. The number of signals in the spectrum tells us how many different sets of protons there are in the molecule
2. The position of the signals in the spectrum along the x-axis tells us about the magnetic environment of each set of protons arising largely from the electron density in their environment
Copyright © 2016 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.
3. The area under the signal tells us about how many protons there are in the set being measured
4. The multiplicity (or splitting pattern) of each signal tells us about the number of protons on atoms adjacent to the one whose signal is being measured
Copyright © 2016 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.
2A. Chemical Shiftv The position of a signal along the x-axis of
an NMR spectrum is called its chemical shift
v The chemical shift of each signal gives information about the structural environment of the nuclei producing that signal
v Counting the number of signals in a 1H NMR spectrum indicates, at a first approximation, the number of distinct proton environments in a molecule

15 -10d ppm
"upfield" (more shielded)"downfield" (deshielded)
(high field strength)
(low field strength)
Copyright © 2016 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.
Chemical shift depends on a given nucleus’s magnetic environment.
Magnetic environment is affected by such factors as electron density.

2B. Integration of Signal Areas
Integral Step Heightsv The area under each signal in a 1H
NMR spectrum is proportional to the number of hydrogen atoms producing that signal
v It is signal area (integration), not signal height, that gives information about the number of hydrogen atoms

3. How to Interpret Proton NMRSpectra
1. Count the number of signals to determine how many distinct proton environments are in the molecule (neglecting, for the time being, the possibility of overlapping signals)
2. Use chemical shift tables or charts to correlate chemical shifts with possible structural environments
Copyright © 2016 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.
3. Determine the relative area of each signal, as compared with the area of other signals, as an indication of the relative number of protons producing the signal
4. Interpret the splitting pattern for each signal to determine how many hydrogen atoms are present on carbon atoms adjacent to those producing the signal and sketch possible molecular fragments
5. Join the fragments to make a molecule in a fashion that is consistent with the data

v Shielding and deshielding by circulation of p electrons • The p electrons in alkenes, alkynes, and aromatic rings also
circulate as to generate an induced, local magnetic field
• Whether shielding or deshielding occurs depends on the location of the protons in the induced magnetic field.

6. Spin–Spin Coupling: More About Signal Splitting and Nonequivalent or Equivalent Protons

• Signal splitting arises due to spin-spin coupling.
• Spin-spin coupling effects are transferred primarily through bonding electrons and lead to spin-spin splitting.

v Vicinal coupling is coupling between hydrogen atoms on adjacent carbons (vicinal hydrogens), where separation between the hydrogens is by three sbonds

6A. Vicinal Couplingv Vicinal coupling between heterotopic
protons generally follows the n + 1 rule.
v Exceptions to the n + 1 rule can occur when diastereotopic hydrogens or conformationally restricted systems are involved

6B. Coupling Constants – Recognizing Splitting Patterns
Copyright © 2016 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.
• Protons that are coupled share a coupling constant (J).
• Coupling constants are determined by measuring the distance (in hertz) between each peak of a signal.
• A vicinal coupling constant is 6-8 hertz.

7. Proton NMR Spectra and Rate Processes
Copyright © 2016 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.
• Think of NMR like a camera with a slow shutter speed.
• Just as a photo will “blur” for an object moving rapidly, the NMR spectrum of a fast molecular process will be blurred.
Copyright © 2016 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.
Examples of rapid processes that “blur” NMR spectra
• Chemical Exchange of Protons
• Conformational Changes
Copyright © 2016 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.
Chemical Exchange Causes Spin Decoupling
We do not typically observe splitting between protons of the OH and CH2 group in ethanol.
23
Copyright © 2016 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.
Chemical Exchange Causes Spin Decoupling
• Protons attached to electronegative atoms (such as O) with lone pairs of electrons can undergo rapid chemical exchange.
• These exchangable protons can be transferred rapidly from one molecule to another.
• The exchange is so rapid that the hydroxyl proton does not couple with C-H protons.
Copyright © 2016 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.
Chemical Exchange Causes Spin Decoupling
• Rapid exchange causes spin decoupling.• Spin decoupling is seen in the 1H NMR
spectra of alcohols, amines, and carboxylic acids.
• The signals of NH and OH protons are normally unsplit and broad.
Copyright © 2016 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.
Chemical Exchange Causes Spin Decoupling
• Protons that undergo rapid chemical exchange will exchange H with D from D2O.
• If placed in D2O, the 1H NMR signal from these protons will disappear.
• This is an easy method for identifying 1H NMR signals produced by exchangeable protons.
v Why don’t we see coupling with the O–H proton, e.g. –CH2–OH (triplet?)
● Because the acidic protons are exchangeable about 105 protons per second (residence time 10-5 sec), but the NMR experiment requires a time of 10-2 – 10-3 sec. to “take” a spectrum, usually we just see an average. Thus, OH protons are usually a broad singlet.

range

Copyright © 2016 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.
Conformational Changes
• At temperatures near room temperature, C-C single bonds can rotate rapidly.
• When we measure the 1H NMR spectra of compounds with single bonds that allow rotation, the spectra we obtain often reflects the hydrogen atoms in their “average” environment.
Copyright © 2016 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.
Conformational Changes
But, imagine for a moment that C-C bonds didn’t rotate…
We already said these protons are in the same environment…
If the C-C bond is frozen, these three hydrogens are notequivalent!
25
Copyright © 2016 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.
Conformational Changes
However, the C-C bond rotates ~1 million times per second. Thus, they are all in the same “average” environment.
Copyright © 2016 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.
Conformational ChangesAt room temperature, cyclohexane chair conformations interconvert so fast that we only see one 1H NMR signal.
Copyright © 2016 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.
Conformational ChangesAt cold temperatures, cyclohexane chair conformations are slow.
The 1H NMR spectrum becomes very complicated due to complex spin-spin couplings between non-equivalent axial and equatorial protons.
Copyright © 2016 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.
Conformational ChangesAt – 100 oC, undecadeuteriocyclohexane gives only two 1H NMR signals of equal intensity.
Interconversions of the two conformations is slow at this temperature.
(The deuterons are invisible to the 1H NMR)

v Unlike 1H with natural abundance ~99.98%, only 1.1% of carbon, namely 13C, is NMR active

8B. One Peak for Each Magnetically Distinct Carbon Atom
Copyright © 2016 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.
• Each distinct carbon produces one signal in a 13C spectrum.
• Splitting of 13C signals into multiple peaks is not observed in routine 13C spectra.
The odds of two 13C atoms (~1% abundance) being next to each other, to split each other, is very low!
Copyright © 2016 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.
• Although 13C-13C signal splitting does not occur in 13C NMR, 1H atoms attached can split 13C NMR signals
• To simplify the 13C NMR spectrum, such 1H-13C splitting is instrumentally eliminated.
• A spectrum with 1H-13C splitting eliminated is called broadband proton decoupled.

• In a boradband proton-decoupled 13C NMR spectrum, each carbon atom in a distinct environment gives a signal consisting of only one peak.
• Most 13C NMR spectra are obtained in the simplified broadband decoupled mode first and then in modes that provide information from the 1H-13C couplings.
8C. 13C Chemical Shiftsv Decreased electron density around an
atom deshields the atom from the magnetic field and causes its signal to occur further downfield (higher ppm, to the left) in the NMR spectrum
v Relatively higher electron density around an atom shields the atom from the magnetic field and causes the signal to occur upfield (lower ppm, to the right) in the NMR spectrum
Copyright © 2016 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved. Copyright © 2016 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.
Electronegative groups deshield the carbons to which they are attached.
The lower the electron density in the vicinity of a given carbon, the less the carbon will be shielded.

v In the mass spectrometer, a molecule in the gaseous phase under low pressure is bombarded with a beam of high-energy electrons (70 eV or ~ 1600 kcal/mol)
v This beam can dislodge an electron from a molecule to give a radical cation which is called the molecular ion, M+ or more accurately

13A. Fragmentation by Cleavage at a Single Bond
v When a molecular ion fragments, it will yield a neutral radical (not detected) and a carbocation (detected) with an even number of electrons
v The fragmentation will be dictated to some extent by the stability of the carbocation generated:ArCH2
+ > CH2=CHCH2+ > 3o > 2o > 1o > CH3

v Some elements that are common in organic molecules have isotopes that differ by two atomic mass units.
v These include 16O and 18O, 32S and 34S, 35Cl and 37Cl, and 79Br and 81Br.
v It is particularly easy to identify the presence of chlorine or bromine using mass spectrometry because multiple isotopes of chlorine and bromine are relatively abundant
Copyright © 2016 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.
45
• The natural abundance of 35Cl is 75.5% and that of 37Cl is 24.5%
• In the mass spectrum for a sample containing chlorine, we would expect to find peaks separated by two mass units, in an approximately 3 : 1 (75.5% : 24.5%) ratio for the molecular ion or any fragments that contain chlorine
Copyright © 2016 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved. Copyright © 2016 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.
• The natural abundance of 79Br is 51.5%, and that of 81Br is 49.5%
• In the mass spectrum for a sample containing bromine we would expect to find peaks separated by two mass units in an approximately 1 : 1 ratio (49.5% : 51.5%)

14A. High-Resolution Mass Spectrometry
Copyright © 2016 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.
“Low-resolution” mass spectrometers measure m/z to the nearest whole number unit.
“High-resolution” mass spectrometers an measure m/z values to three or four decimal places.
Because the masses of the actual masses of individual atoms are not integers, a high-resolution mass spectrum can be used to determine molecular formulas.
Copyright © 2016 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.
v Example 1
O2, N2H4 and CH3OH all have M.W. of 32 (by MS), but accurate masses are different
t O2 = 2(15.9949) = 31.9898
t N2H4 = 2(14.0031) + 4(1.00783) = 32.0375
t CH4O = 12.00000 + 4(1.00783) + 15.9949 = 32.0262

v Example 2
Both C3H8O and C2H4O2 have M.W. of 60 (by low-res MS), but their accurate masses are different.
