Question

See Figure 11-1. In the molecule shown:

Ha would be                            [ Select ]                       ["singlet", "doublet", "triplet", "quartet"]         .

Hb would be                            [ Select ]                       ["singlet", "doublet", "triplet", "quartet"]         .

Hc would be                            [ Select ]                       ["singlet", "doublet", "triplet", "quartet"]         .

Hd would be                            [ Select ]                       ["triplet", "quartet", "quintet", "septet"]         .

He would be                            [ Select ]                       ["singlet", "doublet", "triplet", "quartet"]      

See Figure 11-2. Which of the following is/are true about Hb? (multiple answers is possible)

it is split into a doublet by Ha

it is split into a doublet by Hb

it is split into a doublet by Hc

it is split into a triplet by Hc

it is split into a doublet by Hd

See Figure 11-3. [ Select ] ["Ha", "Hb", "Hc", "Hd", "He"] would have there farthest downfield shift, and

[ Select ] ["Ha", "Hb", "Hc", "Hd", "He"] would have the farthest upfield shift.

Figa11-1 He He CIHs Hd Fi l-a Ha Ad HeHe

Explanation / Answer

In figure 11-1,

The Ha would be a singlet, since the CH3 is attached to oxygen and there are no nuclei to split the signal. Hb would be a triplet and Hc would be a triplet, Hd would be a septet and He would be a doublet (Using the n+1 rule, where n is the number of Hydrogen atoms attached to the near by covalently bonded carbon)

Figure 11-2,

Here, Hb can be split into a doublet by Ha. It is also split into a triplet by Hc

Figure 11.3,

The farthest upfield shift(lowest chemical shift value) will be produced by the He (The value will be around 0.9-1)
