Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy
Introduction to NMR
• When a charged particle such as a proton spins on its axis, it
creates a magnetic field. Thus, the nucleus can be considered
to be a tiny bar magnet.
• Normally, these tiny bar magnets are randomly oriented in
space. However, in the presence of a magnetic field B0, they
are oriented with or against this applied field.
• The energy difference between these two states is very small
(<0.1 cal).

• 1H is approximately 0.0286 cal/mol, which
corresponds to electromagnetic radiation of 300
MHz (300,000,000 Hz)(300MHz)
• 13C is approximately 0.00715 cal/mol, which
corresponds to electromagnetic radiation of

strength of the magnetic field which is
different from machine to machine

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance
we were dealing with 1H nuclei isolated
from all other atoms and electrons, any
combination of applied field and radiation
that produces a signal for one 1H would
produce a signal for all 1H. The same is true
of 13C nuclei
 But hydrogens in organic molecules are not
isolated from all other atoms; they are
surrounded by electrons, which are caused
to circulate by the presence of the applied
field

NMR—The Spectrum
• An NMR spectrum is a plot of the intensity of a peak against its
chemical shift, measured in parts per million (ppm).
15-21
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance
For a 1H-NMR spectrum, signals are
reported by their shift from the 12 H signal
in TMS
 For a 13C-NMR spectrum, signals are
reported by their shift from the 4 C signal in
TMS

NMR signal from the signal of TMS

Signal Splitting (n + 1)

the units into which an NMR signal is
split; doublet, triplet, quartet, etc.
 Signal
splitting: splitting of an NMR signal
into a set of peaks by the influence of
neighboring nonequivalent hydrogens
+ 1) rule: the 1H-NMR signal of a
hydrogen or set of equivalent hydrogens is
split into (n + 1) peaks by a nonequivalent
set of n equivalent neighboring hydrogens15-28

Origins of Signal
Splitting
 When
the chemical shift of one nucleus is
influenced by the spin of another, the two
are said to be coupled
 Consider nonequivalent hydrogens Ha and
Hb on adjacent carbons
• the chemical shift of Ha is influenced by whether
the spin of Hb is aligned with or against the
applied field

13C-NMR
Spectroscopy
Each nonequivalent 13C gives a different
signal
 A 13C is split by the 1H bonded to it
according to the (n + 1) rule
 Coupling constants of 100-250 Hz are
common, which means that there is often
significant overlap between signals, and
splitting patterns can be very difficult to
determine
 The most common mode of operation of a
13C-NMR spectrometer is a hydrogendecoupled mode
15-37

13C-NMR

Spectroscopy
In a hydrogen-decoupled mode, a sample is
irradiated with two different radio
frequencies
• one to excite all 13C nuclei
• a second is a broad spectrum of frequencies that
causes all hydrogens in the molecule to undergo
rapid transitions between their nuclear spin
states

On the time scale of a 13C-NMR spectrum,
each hydrogen is in an average or
effectively constant nuclear spin state, with
the result that 1H-13C spin-spin interactions
are not observed; they are decoupled
