Concept Introduction:

The chemical shift values of a methyl, a methylene and a methine group are given below.

 Chemical shift (inppm)
Methyl group0.9
Methylene group1.2
Methine group1.7

Presence of electron withdrawing atom or group next to these groups will move the chemical shift value towards downfield while presence of electron donating atom or group next to these groups will move the chemical shift value towards upfield.  The inductive effect is distance dependent.  The effect decreases with increasing distance.

Both downfield and upfield are relative in manner.  The left side of an NMR spectrum is described as downfield and the right side of it is known as upfield.

These chemical shift values are modified by the presence of neighboring functional groups in the following way.

Functional groupsEffect on α protonsEffect on β protons
Oxygen of an alcohol or ether+2.5+0.5
Oxygen of an ester+3+0.6
Carbonyl groups+1+0.2

Rules for identification of number of different protons:

The number of signals in a proton NMR spectrum indicates the number of different types of protons.  Chemically equivalent protons which are in identical chemical environment will produce only one signal.

  • The two protons of a CH2 group will be chemically equivalent if the compound lacks stereo centers.  But if the compound has a stereo center, then the protons of a CH2 group will not be chemically equivalent.
  • Two CH2 groups will be equivalent to each other if the CH2 groups can be interchanged by either rotation or reflection.
  • The above rule also applies for CH3 groups or CH groups.
  • The three protons of a CH3 group are always chemically equivalent, even if there are stereo centers in the compound.

Some important chemical shift values are given below.
