1H NMR Spectroscopy: Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Nuclear Shielding and 1H Chemical Shifts What do we mean by "shielding?" What do we mean by "chemical shift?" The electrons surrounding a nucleus affect the effective magnetic field sensed by the nucleus Shielding An external magnetic field affects the motion of the electrons in a molecule, inducing a magnetic field within the molecule. C H H0 Shielding An external magnetic field affects the motion of the electrons in a molecule, inducing a magnetic field within the molecule. C H The direction of the induced magnetic field is opposite to that of the applied field. H0 Shielding The induced field shields the nuclei (in this case, C and H) from the applied field. A stronger external field is needed in order for energy difference between spin states to match energy of rf radiation. C H H0 Chemical Shift Chemical shift is a measure of the degree to which a nucleus in a molecule is shielded. Protons in different environments are shielded to greater or lesser degrees; they have different chemical shifts.

The height of each integration step is proportional to the area under a specific signal. The integration tells us the relative number of protons that give rise to each signal, not absolute number. 1H NMR spectrum / Integration 1-bromo-2,2-dimethylpropane 4.5 (9) 1 (2)
