1

TMS is the reference at 0 ppm for 1H-NMR spectra.

2

The N+1 rule gives the number of lines in a signal based on adjacent equivalent protons.

3

Aldehydic protons are highly deshielded and appear around 9–10 ppm.

4

Electronegative atoms withdraw electron density, deshielding nearby protons.

5

One neighboring non-equivalent proton splits the signal into a 1:1 doublet.

6

Equivalents share the same magnetic environment and thus the same δ.

7

Alkyne protons are relatively shielded, around 1.5–3.5 ppm.

8

π electrons deshield vinyl protons, giving mid-range vinylic shifts.

9

Integration areas are proportional to proton counts giving each signal.

10

Two magnetically different environments give two signals.
