Question

The compounds shown below can be distinguished by which ¹H-NMR characteristics? I) number of signals II) splitting III) integration IV) chemical shift

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The NMR characteristics that can distinguish the compounds shown are number of signals, integration, and chemical shift. Splitting is not relevant since there are no neighboring nuclei to generate splitting patterns. Thus, choices A and C are not correct. Choice D is also not correct as chemical shift is only one of the factors to be considered. Therefore, the correct answer is B, which includes the relevant characteristics.
