Chapter 16, Problem 16.17YT

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

In table 16-4, identify two pairs of carbon atoms whose chemical shifts are in the same order as those analogous protons in table 16-1.

Concept introduction:

Factors that detect the order of chemical shifts in ¹H nuclei and ¹³C nuclei are the same. These factors include inductive effects and magnetic anisotropy. Hence, proton chemical shift and ¹³C chemical shift values are the same for some compounds, which show these two effects.
