How many different 1H chemical environments are in 2-propanol?
Question
How many different 1H chemical environments are in 2-propanol?
Solution
2-Propanol (also known as isopropanol or isopropyl alcohol) has the molecular formula C3H8O. Its structure is CH3-CHOH-CH3.
In this molecule, there are three different types of hydrogen environments:
-
The hydrogen atoms attached to the carbon atom in the -CH3 group that is directly attached to the -OH group.
-
The hydrogen atom attached to the carbon atom in the -OH group (the hydroxyl hydrogen).
-
The hydrogen atoms in the other -CH3 group that is attached to the carbon atom of the -OH group.
So, there are 3 different 1H (proton) chemical environments in 2-propanol.
