NMR Spectroscopy from Organic Chemists’ POV
i.e. Why do we care?
1) Identify compound (or verify its structure)
2) Verify purity
3) Characterize Physical Propertiesa) polarityb) conformationc) recognition propertiesd) electronic properties (conductivity, color, fluorescence etc)

Purity. Evidence for documenting compound purity should include one or more of the following:• A standard 1D proton NMR spectrum or proton-decoupled carbon NMR spectrum showing at most trace peaks not attributable to the assigned structure. A copy of a spectrum with a signal-to-noise ratio sufficient to permit seeing peaks with 5% of the intensity of the strongest peak should be included in the supporting information. The normal full range of chemical shifts should be displayed (usually 0–10 ppm for proton; 0–220 ppm for carbon). For new compounds, copies of both proton and carbon spectra are required (see ‘Identity’ above).• Combustion elemental analytical values for carbon and hydrogen (and nitrogen, if present) agreeing with calculated values within 0.4%.• Quantitative gas chromatographic analytical data for distilled or vacuum-transferred samples, or quantitative HPLC analytical data for materials isolated by column chromatography or separation from a solid support. The stationary phase, solvent (HPLC), detector type, and percentage of total chromatogram integration represented by the product peak should be reported. Alternatively, a copy of the chromatogram may be included in the supporting information.• Electrophoretic analytical data obtained under conditions that permit observing impurities present at the 5% level.• For known solid compounds, a narrow melting point range that is in close agreement with a cited literature value.The type of evidence appropriate for demonstrating a compound’s purity will necessarily depend on the method of preparation, the compound’s air and thermal stability, the complexity of its structure, the nature of reasonably likely impurities, and the amount of sample available. For example, combustion analysis would not be an appropriate choice for the product of an isomerization reaction; a proton NMR spectrum would need to be supplemented with other evidence when reasonably likely impurities (including unreacted starting materials) do not have unique resonances or are NMR-silent (for example, an inorganic salt). A narrow melting point range is not sufficient by itself to document the purity of a new compound. MS accurate mass (HRMS) data may be used to support a molecular formula assignment but cannot serve to document compound purity.
The Journal upholds a high standard for compound characterization to ensure that compounds being added to the chemical literature have been correctly identified and can be synthesized in known yield and purity by the reported preparation, isolation, and purification methods. For all new compounds, evidence adequate to establish both identity and degree of purity (homogeneity) must be provided. Purity documentation must be provided for known compounds whose preparation by a new or improved method is reported. For combinatorial libraries containing more than 20 compounds, complete characterization data must be provided for at least 20 diverse members. Authors may be asked to provide copies of original spectra or analytical reports if an editor or reviewer raises a question about any of the reported results.
Identity. Evidence for documenting the identity of new compounds should include both proton and carbon NMR data and either MS accurate mass (HRMS) or elemental analysis data.

CommentsThere is a high degree of symmetry in this molecule so there are only 3 different types of protons. There is the concern that the axial and equatorial protons and methyl groups might be different. But due the arrangement of the methyl groups, one will always be axial and the other will be equatorial. This means that the molecule will flip between two equal chair conformations.

The methylene (CH2) protons (c and c’) are different and are diastereotopic. They are often referred to as endo and exo. The reason is that the methylene bridge makes the top and bottom face of the cyclohexane ring different. This is common in bicyclic systems. Note: that the methylene (CH2) bridge protons (a) are chemically equivalent due to symmetry in this system. However, if there are substituents on the cyclohexane ring, the two Ha protons could also be diastereotopic.

All four methyl groups are chemically equivalent. The reason is that there is free rotation around the b-c single bond allowing the exchange of the up and down methyl groups.
5 All the aromatic protons in this molecule (a-d) are different. The three methyl group protons (e) are all the same due to free rotation of the methyl group single bond.

The two methyl groups appear to be chemically equivalent because it looks like they can exchange by rotation around the O=C-N single bond. However, the O=C-N of amides and formamides rotates slowly on the NMR timescale due to its partial double bond character (which is evident from the minor zwitterionic resonance structure.) This makes the two groups attached to amide and formamide nitrogens chemically inequivallent at room temperature. If the NMR sample is heated, then they become chemically equivalent due to faster rotation around the O=C-N bond.
1 or 2At room temperature, all of the protons on cyclohexane are the same. However, if cyclohexane is cooled then the ring flip between the two chair forms becomes slow on the NMR timescale. Under these low temperature conditions, the axial and equatorial protons become chemically inequivalent.

The protons c and c’ are chemically inequivalent due to the lack of rotation around the C=C double bond.

The resonance structures seem to suggest that all of the methyl groups are different but remember that a structure is the average of all of its resonance structures. So the actual structure is highly symmetric so the top (a and a) and bottom (a’ and a’) pairs of methyl groups are the same. However, there is still sufficient double bond character to stop rotation, making the methyl groups a and a’ chemically inequivalent.
6Methylene groups (b and b’) adjacent to chiral centers will be diasteretopic (different). Notice that the protons of the methyl group (d) next to the chiral center do not become chemically inequivalent.
6
This question is really asking whether the NMR spectra of a chirally pure sample or a racemic sample will be the same. The answer is yes. The NMR of enantiomers are identical. Therefore, we cannot tell the difference between enantiomers by NMR. We can also not differentiate chirally pure and racemic samples by simple NMR spectra. (There are some more complex methods that can be used to differentiate enantiomers. We will talk about those later.)

Comments
Although this molecule does not have a chiral center, the protons (b and b’) adjacent to the central carbon become diastereotopic. The reason is that from the point of view of the individual methylene carbons (b and b’), the adjacent central carbon appears to be a chiral center (and behaves like a chiral center).
2Due to the presence of the ring, the methylene protons (a and a’) cannot interchange by rotation. Therefore, they will be diastereotopic because one is next to a Cl and the other is next to a Br.
1As drawn, the two methyl groups appear to be chemically inequivalent. However, the actual 3D structure of the molecule actually contains a plane of symmetry making the two methyl groups chemically equivalent.

Intramolecular !-Stacking in Isostructural Conformational Probes DependsStrongly on Charge Separation, a Proton NMR Study
Pramod Prasad Poudel,[a] Jing Chen,[b] and Arthur Cammers*[a]
Keywords: !-Stacking / Solution state / Crystalline state / Conformation / NMR anisotropy
Our solution state conformational methods used previouslyto study a dicationic molecular template for intramoleculararomatic association were applied to a neutral hydrocarbonanalogue to probe the effect of charge on conformation. Con-formational analysis of the hydrocarbon revealed modest sol-vent dependence in largely unfolded molecules. Conforma-tions found in the solid state were unfolded also corroborat-ing the findings of the solution-state study. This study alsoadds solid-state evidence for three competing solution-state
Introduction
In an approach encapsulated by the early ideas of Kara-batsos,[1] and in work by Fukazawa,[2–7] and others,[8–12] acalculation-based/1H NMR-based, multi-state mathemati-cal model for the solution-phase conformation of the dicat-ions 1a–c was devised.[10–12] The steps involved in these con-formational analyses were: 1) molecular modeling and X-ray crystallography to locate candidate conformational en-ergy minima, and grouping these conformations intoclasses, 2) ab initio calculations of the effect of anisotropyon key chemical shifts in these conformations. Figure 1 dis-plays the calculated anisotropic shielding tensor of benzenewith shielding and deshielding regions at the !-face andedge respectively. 3) experimentally measuring the chemicalshift difference between key, analogous chemical shifts ofthe template molecule and an ideal reference molecule, 4)solving a system of equations designed to output the con-formational distribution given the computed chemicalshifts, the experimental chemical shifts and mass balance,5) checking the stability of the mathematical model bygrouping conformations and omitting the expression formass balance under different conditions (temperature andsolvent) to look for negative concentrations of conformersin the output of the algorithm.

3. Integration of peaks = ratio of chemically equivalent protons
1) Make sure you get proper (flat) integrals or you manually measure integrals
2) Exchangeable (acidic) protons and aldehyde protons are often too low (not accurate)
