(a)
Interpretation:
The least and most shielded proton or set of protons in the given compounds has to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Depending upon the electron density around the proton the chemical shift values of the proton varies relative to the reference signal.
The more the shielded proton less will be its chemical shift value and the corresponding signal will be produced at the right-hand side or lower frequency region.
The more the deshielded or less shielded proton more will be its chemical shift value and the corresponding signal will be produced at the left-hand side or higher frequency region.
Proton or set of proton attached near to the more electronegative or electron withdrawing atoms such as F, O, N is more deshielded or less shielded and vice versa.

- Q5: Label each chiral carbon in the following molecules as R or S. Make sure the stereocenter to which each of your R/S assignments belong is perfectly clear to the grader. (8pts) R OCH 3 CI H S 2pts for each R/S HO R H !!! I OH CI HN CI R Harrow_forwardCalculate the proton and carbon chemical shifts for this structurearrow_forwardA. B. b. Now consider the two bicyclic molecules A. and B. Note that A. is a dianion and B. is a neutral molecule. One of these molecules is a highly reactive compound first characterized in frozen noble gas matrices, that self-reacts rapidly at temperatures above liquid nitrogen temperature. The other compound was isolated at room temperature in the early 1960s, and is a stable ligand used in organometallic chemistry. Which molecule is the more stable molecule, and why?arrow_forward
