¹H NMR spectra offer several pieces of information that are valuable in catalysis research:
- Chemical Shift: Indicates the electronic environment of hydrogen atoms, helping to identify functional groups and bonding patterns. - Integration: Provides the relative number of hydrogen atoms present in different environments, aiding in determining molecular composition. - Coupling Constants: Reveals the interactions between hydrogen atoms, which can provide information about the spatial arrangement of atoms. - Dynamic Processes: Observes changes in the spectra over time, which can be used to study reaction kinetics and mechanisms.
