Which of the following show exactly two signals in the 1H NMR spectrum (count each set of chemically equivalent hydrogens)?
A1,4-dimethylbenzene
B2,2-dimethylpropanal, (CHX3)X3CCHO
Cethyl ethanoate, CHX3COOCHX2CHX3
D1,3,5-trimethylbenzene
Answer: A, B, D
1,4-Dimethylbenzene: methyl and aromatic H = 2. (CHX3)X3CCHO: nine methyl H and one CHO H = 2. 1,3,5-Trimethylbenzene: methyl and aromatic H = 2. Ethyl ethanoate has CHX3CO, OCHX2 and CHX3 = 3 signals.
