ALKYL-SUBSTITUTED RINGS
In mono-substituted rings with an alkyl substituent
all ring hydrogens come at the same place in the NMR
spectrum.

SUBSTITUENTS WITH UNSHARED PAIRS
Electronegative elements with unshared pairs shield
the o- and p- ring positions, separating the hydrogens
into two groups.

THE EFFECT OF CARBONYL SUBSTITUENTS
When a carbonyl group is attached to the ring the
o- and p- protons are deshielded by the anisotropic

para-Disubstitution
1,4-Disubstituted benzene rings will show
a pair of doublets, when the two groups
on the ring are very different

THE p-DISUBSTITUTED PATTERN CHANGES AS THE
TWO GROUPS BECOME MORE AND MORE SIMILAR
All peaks move closer.
Outer peaks get smaller …………………..… and finally disappear.
Inner peaks get taller…………………………. and finally merge.

SPLITTING DIAGRAMS
aka “TREE” DIAGRAMS
WHERE DOES THE N+1 RULE WORK ?
The n+1 rule works only for protons in aliphatic chains
and rings, and then under special conditions.
Hydrogens can
interchange their
H H H positions by
C C C rotations about
the C-C bonds.
H H H This makes all the
3J = 3J b hydrogens on each
a
of the carbon atoms
All the couplings equivalent.
along the chain
have the same J value.
