Question 1
1.
Use chemical shift data from the Data Booklet to sketch the high resolution proton nmr spectrum for ethanol. The peaks do not overlap. Explain the number of peaks, their splitting pattern and the ratio of the areas under each set of peaks


(use this to identify the peaks)

M1 _______ (proton / hydrogen) environments NOTE: This must be stated. (1)

M2 _______ singlet and _______ triplet and _______ quartet (1)

M3 Splitting is due to (_______ ) rule (1)

M4 (Area ratios of peaks) _______ : _______ : _______ relative order and consistent with CH3CH2OH Can be shown on annotated (displayed) formula of ethanol (1)

M5 (Chemical shift values, δ, in ppm) Give the environment number

_______ = 2.0 - 4.0,

_______ = 0.1 - 1.9,

_______ = 3.0 - 4.2

Allow any single value, or range of values, within these ranges
