Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You have a 13C NMR spectrum with signals at 0, 20, 130, and 200 ppm. Propose a possible structure for a molecule with these chemical shifts.

💡 Hint: Refer to the characteristic ranges for functional groups to guide you.

Question 2

Calculate and interpret the degree of unsaturation for a molecule with a molecular formula of C8H8 based on the presence of signals in the 13C NMR.

💡 Hint: Count the number of hydrogens and relate it to unsaturation.
