H-1 proton NMR spectroscopy -
spectra index
TMS is the acronym for tetramethylsilane, formula Si(CH3)4,
whose protons are arbitrarily given a chemical shift of 0.0 ppm.
This is the 'standard' in 1H NMR spectroscopy and all
other proton shifts, called chemical shifts, depend on the
individual (electronic) chemical environment of the hydrogen atoms
in an organic molecule - 1,2-dimethylbenzene here.
The chemical shifts quoted in ppm on the diagram of
the H-1 NMR spectrum of 1,2-dimethylbenzene represent the peaks of the intensity of
the chemical shifts of (which are often groups of split lines at
high resolution) AND the relative integrated areas under the peaks
gives you the ratio of protons in the different chemical
environments of the 1,2-dimethylbenzene molecule.

Interpreting the
H-1 NMR spectrum of
1,2-dimethylbenzene
For relatively simple molecules, the low
resolution H-1 NMR spectrum of 1,2-dimethylbenzene is NOT a good starting point
because two of the proton resonances are very close together, so
there are actually three different chemical environments.
High resolution spectra show the hydrogen atoms (protons) of
1,2-dimethylbenzene occupy 3 different chemical environments.
Although there are 10 hydrogen atoms in the molecule,
there are only 3 possible different chemical
environments for the hydrogen atoms in 1,2-dimethylbenzene molecule.
The integrated signal proton ratio of 2:3
(actually 4:6
for
aryl:alkyl) is observed
in the high or low resolution H-1 NMR spectrum, corresponds with
the structural formula of 1,2-dimethylbenzene.
The high resolution H-1 NMR
spectrum of 1,2-dimethylbenzene
The ppm quoted on the diagram represent the peak
of resonance intensity for a particular proton group in the
molecule of 1,2-dimethylbenzene - since the peak' is at the apex of a band of
H-1 NMR resonances due to spin - spin coupling field splitting effects - see high resolution
notes on 1,2-dimethylbenzene below.
(a) 1H
Chemical shift ~7.04 ppm for the two benzene ring protons 4 and 5
furthest from the side-chain methyl protons.
(a) protons will be split by (b) protons
into a doublet (n+1 = 2).
Take care here, the (a) adjacent protons
are equivalent and will not split each other's
resonances.
(b) 1H
Chemical shift ~7.04 ppm for the two benzene ring protons 3 and 6
nearest to the side-chain methyl protons.
(b) protons will be split by (a) protons
into a doublet (n+1 = 2).
You need very high resolution to sort
(a) and (b) 1H resonances and they are indicative of the
benzene ring protons in 1,2-dimethylbenzene.
(c) 1H
Chemical shift 2.22 ppm for the six side-chain methyl protons - no
significant splitting observed as there is no proton on the adjacent
carbon atom of the benzene ring.
What you can get from the spectrum is a
ratio of
2:3 for
aryl:alkyl protons in 1,2-dimethylbenzene.
