Well, I might have walked myself into a bit o' disaster. After long
deliberation I decided that the singlet, doublet, triplet, quartet,
designations on the carbon-13 NMR spectra are necessary to determining
exactly which carbon (as closely as can be approximated) in the molecule
corresponds to which peak. For example, in the molecule there was one
carbon (a singlet I think) that was part of a carbonyl group-- I
designated the two (the peak on the spectra and the carbon in the
molecule) with corresponding letters. Also there were two
singlet carbons involved in carbon-carbon double bonds so I assinged
letters to those carbons in the molecule that corresponded to the singlet
peaks in the alkene region of the spectra... Was this not what we were
supposed to do? Am I on base as to how to assign peaks to specific
carbons? Did anyone else try to interpret their spectra in this manner?
Also, I transfered the s, d, t, and q notations from the book (Pavia) to
the copy of the NMR spectra that I recieved from the stockroom window.
That's where I found the singlet, etc. notations.
