Which type of protons are associated with distinct signals in NMR?
Which type of protons are associated with distinct signals in NMR?
- Chiral protons
- Diastereotopic protons (correct)
- Test group protons
- Enantiotopic protons
What happens when diastereotopic protons are replaced with a test group?
What happens when diastereotopic protons are replaced with a test group?
- They have equal chemical shifts
- They become chemically distinct in reactions with chiral molecules
- They become enantiotopic protons
- They give rise to diastereomers (correct)
