water in cdcl3


NMR-CDCL3

Recommended Posts

I have recently purchased cdcl3. The water peak is at 1.62. As per literature it should be at 1.56. Can someone tell me is this normal or is a impurity. Also is there anyway we can quantify the undeuterated chcl3 which appears at 7.26.

 

 

Why are you trying to quantify it? You can normally get a good idea of how good / bad it is by looking at the spectra of something. In any case, you could add a reference of known concentration to your CDCl3 and compare integration. If you know the volume of CDCl3 in the tube, you should be able to work out the % impurity.

 

Water peaks do not always come up at 1.56 ppm. It can and often does vary. I wouldn't be too concerned by it, provided you are sure it is water.
