AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on the challenge of separating CH and CH2 peaks in a DEPT spectrum of an organic sample, where the CH and CH2 spectra appear identical. To achieve peak separation, it is suggested to vary the tip angle of the final 1H pulse. This involves determining the 90-degree pulse width for the CH proton and calculating the corresponding 45-degree pulse width. Accuracy in these measurements is crucial, and a pulse delay ten times the longest decay constant for the slowest recovering proton is recommended. Additionally, it is important to ensure that the proton decoupler is not continuously active during the acquisition of the FID.

I have taken a DEPT spectrum of an organic sample.
It has 4 spectras that are all protonated carbon, CH, CH2 and CH3.
They especially CH,CH2, and CH3 spectras should be different but CH and CH2 spectras are same.
What can I do to separate CH and CH2 peaks? Could you give me any suggestion?

You will need to perform an experiment to determine the 90 degree pulse width for the CH proton and from that calculate the 45 degree pulse width. That needs to be fairly accurate and you need to put in a pulse delay 10X the longest decay constant for the slowest recovering proton... another experiment for that. Be sure the proton decoupler is not on continuously as well while you acquire the FID.
 
Thanks for your helps..
best regards
 
It seems like a simple enough question: what is the solubility of epsom salt in water at 20°C? A graph or table showing how it varies with temperature would be a bonus. But upon searching the internet I have been unable to determine this with confidence. Wikipedia gives the value of 113g/100ml. But other sources disagree and I can't find a definitive source for the information. I even asked chatgpt but it couldn't be sure either. I thought, naively, that this would be easy to look up without...
I was introduced to the Octet Rule recently and make me wonder, why does 8 valence electrons or a full p orbital always make an element inert? What is so special with a full p orbital? Like take Calcium for an example, its outer orbital is filled but its only the s orbital thats filled so its still reactive not so much as the Alkaline metals but still pretty reactive. Can someone explain it to me? Thanks!!
