AnIntroduction

Over the past fifty years nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, commonly referred to as NMR, has become the preeminent technique for determining the structure of organic compounds.
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy: A spectroscopic technique that gives us information
about the number and types of nuclei in a molecule.For example, about the number and types of – Hydrogen nuclei using 1H-NMR spectroscopy.– Carbon nuclei using 13C-NMR spectroscopy.– Phosphorus nuclei using 31P-NMR spectroscopy.

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectroscopy involves the transition of a nucleus from one spin state to another with the resultant absorption of electromagnetic radiation by spin active nuclei when they are placed in a magnetic field.
The following features lead to the NMR phenomenon:
1. A spinning charge generates a magnetic field, as shown by the animation on the right.
The resulting spin-magnet has a magnetic moment (μ) proportional to the spin.

The nuclei of many elemental isotopes have a characteristic spin (I). Some nuclei have integral spins (e.g. I = 1, 2, 3 ....), some have fractional spins (e.g. I = 1/2, 3/2, 5/2 ....), and a few have no spin, I = 0 (e.g. 12C, 16O, 32S, ....).
Isotopes of particular interest and use to organic chemists are 1H, 13C, 19F and 31P, all of which have I = 1/2. Since the analysis of this spin state is fairly straightforward, our discussion of NMR will be limited to these and other I = 1/2 nuclei.

In the presence of an external magnetic field (B0), two spin states exist, +1/2 and -1/2.
The magnetic moment of the lower energy +1/2 state is alligned with the external field, but that of the higher energy -1/2 spin state is opposed to the external field. Note that the arrow representing the external field points North.

• More nucleons will be in the lower energy state aligned with the magnetic field.
• A nucleon can absorb a quantum of energy in the radio frequency range and align against the magnetic field.
• It emits a radio frequency when it drops back to its original position.

WHEN A SPIN-ACTIVE HYDROGEN ATOM ISPLACED IN A STRONG MAGNETIC FIELD
….. IT BEGINS TO PRECESS
A SECOND EFFECT OF A STRONG MAGNETIC FIELD
OPERATION OF AN NMR SPECTROMETER DEPENDS ON THIS RESULT
![Page 15: Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062222/56815e49550346895dccbdd1/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

If rf energy having a frequency matching the Larmor frequency is introduced at a right angle to the external field (e.g. along the x-axis), the precessing nucleus will absorb energy and the magnetic moment will flip to its I = -1/2 state. This excitation is shown in the following diagram.
![Page 17: Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062222/56815e49550346895dccbdd1/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance
• Resonance: In NMR spectroscopy, resonance is due to the absorption of energy by a precessing nucleus and the results in “flip” of its nuclear spin from a lower energy state to a higher energy state.
• The precessing spins induce an oscillating magnetic field that is recorded as a signal by the instrument.– Signal: A recording in an NMR spectrum of a nuclear
magnetic resonance.
![Page 18: Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062222/56815e49550346895dccbdd1/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Strong magnetic fields are necessary for NMR spectroscopy.
The earth's magnetic field is not constant, but is approximately 10-4 T at ground level. Modern NMR spectrometers use powerful magnets having fields of 1 to 20 T.
Even with these high fields, the energy difference between the two spin states is less than 0.1 cal/mole.

For NMR purposes, this small energy difference (ΔE) is usually given as a frequency in units of MHz (106 Hz), ranging from 20 to 900 Mz, depending on the magnetic field strength and the specific nucleus being studied.
Irradiation of a sample with radio frequency (rf) energy corresponding exactly to the spin state separation of a specific set of nuclei will cause excitation of those nuclei in the +1/2 state to the higher -1/2 spin state.
The nucleus of a hydrogen atom (the proton) has a magnetic moment μ = 2.7927, and has been studied more than any other nucleus

All different types of protons in a moleculehave a different amounts of shielding.
This is why an NMR spectrum contains useful information(different types of protons appear in predictable places).
They all respond differently to the applied magnetic field and appear at different places in the spectrum.

• To standardise measurements on different NMR instruments, a standard reference sample is used in each experiment. This is tetramethylsilane (TMS).
This is a symmetrical and inert molecule. All H atoms have the same chemical environment and a single peak is produced from this molecule.
![Page 27: Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062222/56815e49550346895dccbdd1/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
• The difference in energy needed to change the spin state in the sample is compared to TMS and is called the CHEMICAL SHIFT.
• The chemical shift of TMS is defined as zero• The symbol d represents chemical shift and is measured in
ppm. The chemical shift scale is measured from right to left on the spectrum.
chemical shift
= d = shift in Hz
spectrometer frequency in MHz= ppm
parts permillion
This division gives a number independent of the instrument used.
A particular proton in a given molecule will always come at the same chemical shift (constant value).

RThe chemical shift dependson how much hydrogen bondingis taking place.
Alcohols vary in chemical shiftfrom 0.5 ppm (free OH) to about5.0 ppm (lots of H bonding).
Hydrogen bonding lengthens theO-H bond and reduces the valence electron density around the proton- it is deshielded and shifted downfield in the NMR spectrum.

Often a group of hydrogens will appear as a multipletrather than as a single peak.
Multiplets are named as follows:

This happens because of interaction with neighboring hydrogens and is calledSPIN-SPIN SPLITTING.

APPLICATIONS
• GEOPHYSICAL: Used to determine the water content in the geophysical samples.
• Engineering Applications: It is used to study the Process engineering aspects like the kinetic and equilibrium studies of Formaldehyde – water – methanol systems.
• Non- destructive testing of DNA, proteins etc.• This is very much useful in Data acquisition in
Petroleum Industry. Here NMR probes are developed and Used.

MRI• Magnetic resonance imaging, noninvasive• “Nuclear” is omitted because of public’s fear
that it would be radioactive.• Only protons in one plane can be in resonance
at one time.• Computer puts together “slices” to get 3D.• Tumors readily detected.
