13C NMR EXAMPLES........1,2-dimethoxyethane


structure
IUPAC Name: 1,2-dimethoxyethane 


C4H10O2
.



The peak is a triplet, indicating that it corresponds to a CH2. The chemical shift (d 80) suggests that the CH2 is adjacent to an electron-withdrawing group, such as an oxygen, and may be further shifted due to steric effects.
- O - CH2-

 
 
 
The peak is a quartet, indicating that it corresponds to a CH3 group. The chemical shift (d 54) suggests that the CH3 is adjacent to an electronegative atom (i.e., oxygen). Note that there are only two peaks in the spectrum, but there are four carbons in the molecular formula.
- O - CH3
  

 
 
Analysis : Molecular formula and index of hydrogen deficiency
C4H10O2
The index of hydrogen deficiency is zero (no double bonds or rings).



 
    

Interpret :
d (ppm)
Multiplicity (n + 1)
Indicating
80
triplet
- O - CH2 -
54
quartet
- O - CH3
The 13C NMR has two peaks, a quartet at d 54 (a CH3) and a triplet at d 80 (a CH2). Since the molecule has four carbons and only two 13C NMR peaks, there must be symmetry. Both peaks are in the regions where carbons next to electronegative atoms occur (oxygen).

  • Although its appearance may be humble, Restaurant André, which seats 30 diners, is the epitome of a fine-dining experience. As exclusive as it gets, there’s only one menu, created by Chef André and his team based on the seasons and availability. The eight-course degustation menu is prepared from market-fresh and imported ingredients that the chef hand-picks each morning. Each creation has a Mediterranean essence, but the presentation is French-inspired. If you’re in luck, the foie gras jelly will be on the menu du jour, an unusual and original house speciality. Restaurant André is also well-known for their excellent wine list which is sourced from small, independent vineyards around the world. Read More...

    Duxton Hill



    The rebirth of Duxton Hill has created a new foodie street in Chinatown. New restaurants have opened in quaint shop houses and cool bars keep springing up in a neighbourhood whose reputation used to be far from squeaky clean. It’s now a real pleasure to walk around Duxton Hill, down tree lined lanes where you will also find independent boutiques and quirky cafes. Despite being so popular, it really has a village feel to it, and makes a great place for a night out. Head up the hill to the end of the road, this area is cobbled and car-free. The restaurants here include an Italian trattoria, seafood specialist and French steakhouse, and have outdoor seating. Read More...
    Closed to traffic at dusk, Smith Street takes on a gregarious personality to the delight of visitors. Traditional Chinese lanterns the streets, and the busy area has a genuine buzz to it thanks to the crowds who come for supper, sitting on the small plastic stools that line the road. Navigate your way through more than a dozen stalls under iridescent neon lights and take your pick of popular street favourites. There’s plenty to pick from: fresh seafood, wok-fried noodles, crispy duck and steamed dim sum. Not only is the food extremely tasty but the prices are extremely affordable (starting at 3 SGD a dish), so you can try a bit of everything. Read More...

    This attractive restaurant and cocktail bar draws you into to their wondrous world with a traditional exterior which takes over three shophouses and a quirky design inside. There’s plenty of comfortable bistro style seating around the open kitchen and the friendly face behind the bar is one of the city’s top mixologists who creates out of this world cocktails. The food is innovative, and to get the best of the chef’s creations try the tasting menu, which includes razor clams with purple garlic, venison and an interpretative dessert based on Terry’s Chocolate Orange. Without pairing the menu is 160 SGD. Read More...
    This Australian barbeque joint is an unusual concept in Singapore, and for this reason, alongside their delicious food, Burnt Ends packs in the crowds almost every night. At the centre of this restaurant is a large double-door oven that burns apple and almond wood, adding a smoky flavour. If you’re coming in a group with less than six people you’ll sit on the long counter, a front seat view of the action. There’s everything from pulled-pork burgers to a whole char grilled redfish, and even a smoked ice-cream for dessert. They don’t encourage bookings so you might have to wait, but if you’re a meat lover then it’s really worth it. Read More...
