1H-NMR SpectroscopyBackground and Theory

Fundamental principleThe energy required to cause nuclear spin flip is a function of the magnetic environment

of the nucleus.

•Protons, electrons, neutrons have “spin” (I)•Motion of charged particle creates magnetic field•In absence of external influence, magnetic poles (spin axis) randomly oriented

No external magnetic fieldSpin alignment random

With external magnetic fieldSpins aligned

Bo

•Add external magnetic field (Bo) spins align

add magnetic field

Background and TheoryNuclear Spin Flip

•I = +1/2 parallel to Bo (lower energy); I = -1/2 antiparallel to Bo (higher energy)

•Addition of energy results in nuclear spin flip

Excited stateNuclear spin antiparallel to Bo

Higher energy

I = +1/2

I = -1/2

Background and TheorySpectrum Structure

Information from NMR spectrum:

•Number of signals number of nonequivalent proton groups in molecule

•Position of signals (chemical shift) magnetic environment of protons

•Relative intensity of signals (integration) ratio of equivalent proton types

•Splitting of signals (spin-spin coupling) proton neighbors

How do we deduce structure from NMR spectrum?

Number of SignalsProton Equivalency

•Photon energy controlled by magnetic environment of nucleus•Nuclei in same magnetic environment = equivalent•Multiple magnetic environments multiple signals•Number of signals = number of equivalent proton sets

•Equivalent = proton magnetic environments identical in every way

•Nonequivalent = proton magnetic environments not identical in one or more ways

•Easier to test for nonequivalency than for equivalency

1H-NMR Spectroscopy Part 1 Summary

•Nuclear spin axis can be parallel or antiparallel to external magnetic field (Bo)•Spin parallel to Bo (I = +1/2) lower energy than spin antiparallel to Bo (I = -1/2)•Energy difference between spin states (E) controlled by magnetic field at nucleus•Absorption of radio wave photon with energy = E causes nuclear spin flip•NMR spectrum = plot of photon energy (spin flip energy) versus photon quantity

Information from NMR spectrum•Number of signals reveals number of sets of equivalent protons

Equivalency: Protons must be identical in all ways to be equivalentNonequivalency: Protons can be different in just one wayExample: 1H-NMR spectrum of CH3CH2OH has three signals

•Position of signal (chemical shift)•Relative intensity of signals (integration)•Splitting of signals (spin-spin coupling)

•Atomic nucleus has spin, and therefore generates a magnetic field

Vollhardt, 10-2

Position of SignalsThe Chemical Shift

How does spin flip energy relate to molecular structure?

•Magnetic field strength varies between NMR spectrometers•High magnetic field = higher spectral resolution (more spectral detail)•Need a spin flip energy scale that is independent of magnetic field strength•Chemical shift: Spin flip energy scale normalized to be independent of field strength

•Relative intensities of NMR signals proportional to relative number of equivalent protons

•Integrals do not always correspond to exact number of protons

Signal Splitting

What is the origin of signal splitting?

A nucleus with only one magnetic environment causes a singlet

A nucleus with two magnetic environments causes a doublet

Each line in signal... ...has slightly different chemical shift ...represents slightly different spin flip energy ...represents nucleus with slightly different magnetic environment

Signal Splitting

How can one nucleus have different magnetic environments?

Ha feels Bo + Hb

•Ha feels two different magnetic environments

•Ha has two different spin flip E

Ha feels Bo - Hb

Ha C C Hb

•Caused by spin direction of adjacent nuclei

Larger E

Smaller E

•Ha has two different (but very similar) chemical shifts

•Ha signal is split into a doublet

Signal SplittingSome Useful Terms

J

Spin-spin coupling: One nuclear spin influences spin of another nucleus

Splitting: Effect on NMR signal caused by spin-spin coupling

Coupling constant (J): Spacing between lines in a splitting pattern

Signal SplittingMore Than One Neighbor

What is splitting when there is more than one neighbor?

Ha feels Bo + Hb + Hc

•Ha has three different (but very similar) chemical shifts

•Ha signal is split into a triplet

Ha C C Hc

Hb

Bo

Ha feels Bo - Hb + Hc = Bo

Ha feels Bo + Hb - Hc = Bo

Ha feels Bo - Hb - Hc

Rules and Restrictions for Proton-Proton Spin-Spin Coupling1. Only nonequivalent protons couple.

Non-First Order SplittingWhy Is Cyclohexene Splitting Not Simple?

•n+1 rule obeyed; “normal” doublets, triplets, etc. result

For Chem 14C we predict J values equal and “normal” coupling results. Exceptions are plentiful.
