Chemical shift
|
Used the delta scale and has the units ppm
Is the difference between the chemical shift of the sample in comparison of a standard TMS absorption |
|
Factor affecting chemical shift
|
Proximity to an electronegative atom
Proximity to Pi electrons Anisotropic effects - localised magnetic field from the circulating electrons of at atom - either paramagnetic or dimagnetic |
|
Electronegative atoms _____ the nucleus because ____________
|
deshield
draw electron density away from an atom |
|
Anisotropic effects are
|
localised magnetic field from the circulating electrons of at atom - either paramagnetic or dimagnetic
|
|
Circulating electrons _____________ the nucleus because ______________
|
shield
spin around the nucleus divert some of the energy |
|
Pi electrons can ___________ or ____________ depending on _______________
|
shield
deshield whether lines of force (magnetic moment) is parallel or antiparallel |
|
Parallel magnetic moment
|
deshield
|
|
Antiparallel magnetic moment
|
shield
|
|
Deshielding moves chemical shift
|
downfield
|
|
NMR splitting - spin/spin coupling
|
Nuclei possess a small magnetic field which if less than 3 bonds away can be experienced by another proton
This is known as spin-spin coupling and results in NMR splitting pattern Splitting results in two spin states - +1/2 alpha -1/2 beta These are slightly different in energy when a field is applied - shielding also affects the nuclei chemical environment Results in a nuclei having a different split depending on environment of neighbouring H1 resulting in complex signals |
