1H NMR and 13C NMR spectra of the nine alkane structural isomers of C7H16
TMS is the acronym for tetramethylsilane, formula Si(CH3)4,
whose 13C atoms are arbitrarily given a chemical shift of 0.0
ppm. This is the 'standard' in 13C NMR spectroscopy and all other
13C resonances, called chemical shifts, are measured with
respect to the TMS, and depend on the
individual (electronic) chemical environment of the 13C atoms in
an organic molecule - 2,2,3-trimethylbutane here.

Interpreting the C-13 NMR spectrum of 2,2,3-trimethylbutane
As you can see from the diagram above there are
4 different chemical shift lines in the C-13 NMR spectrum of
2,2,3-trimethylbutane
indicating 4 different chemical environments of the carbon atoms.

(Note the 4 different colours indicating the
4 different chemical environments of the carbon atoms in
2,2,3-trimethylbutane).
Chemical shifts (a) to (d) on the C-13 NMR
spectrum diagram for 2,2,3-trimethylbutane.
The carbon-13 NMR spectra a provides direct evidence of
4 different carbon atom environments for the 7 carbon atoms in the
2,2,3-trimethylbutane molecule,
deduced from the presence of 4 different 13C chemical
shifts (ppm).
Comparing the
1H NMR and 13C NMR spectra of the nine alkane structural isomers of C7H16
You can distinguish all 9 isomers from a data combination of their number of
1H NMR
chemical shifts,
and their resulting integrated 1H proton ratios, plus, their number of
13C
chemical shifts. |
