(A true story.) A major university was designated as a national nuclear magnetic resonance center by the National Science Foundation. Several large superconducting instruments were being installed when a government safety inspector appeared and demanded to know what provisions were being made to handle the nuclear waste produced by these instruments. Assume you are the manager of the NMR center and offer an explanation that could be understood by a nonscientist.
Question: How many signals would you expect to see in the 13CNMR of the following compounds? In each case, show which carbon atoms are equivalent in the 13CNMR.
Sets of spectra are given for two compounds. For each set,
(1) Look at each spectrum individually and list the structural characteristics you can determine from that spectrum.
(2) Look ar the set of spectraas a group and purpose a tentative structure.
(3) Verify that your proposed structure accounts for the major features of each spectrum. The solution for compound 1 is given after the problem but go as far as you can before looking at the solution.
A laboratory student was converting cyclohexanol to cyclohexyl bromide by using one equivalent of sodium bromide in a large excess of concentrated sulfuric acid. The major product she recovered was not cyclohexyl bromide, but a compound of formula C6H10that gave the following 13CNMR spectrum:
