A summary of the chemical shifts of the 1H proton and 13C NMR spectra of 1-ethoxypropane (ethyl propyl ether)

1-ethoxypropane, ethyl propyl ether, linear ether, chain of C and O atoms

structural formula of 1-ethoxypropane (ethyl propyl ether) , skeletal formula of 1-ethoxypropane (ethyl propyl ether) , isomer of C5H12O

Number of low resolution NMR chemical shift δ signal peaks: 5 1H and 5 13C

For the NMR spectra of 1-ethoxypropane (ethyl propyl ether), reading the structural formula from left to right and applying the simplified n+1 rule for chemical shift splitting due to immediately adjacent non-equivalent protons:

1H NMR integrated ratio of peaks: 3 : 2 : 2 : 2 : 3 (for equivalent protons)

1H NMR signals chemical shift δ ppm:  1.20 (triplet, CH3), 3.47 (quartet, OCH2), 3.37 (C1, triplet, CH2), 1.60 (C2, sextet, CH2), 0.93 (C3, triplet, CH3) (in CDCl3)

overlap 3

13C NMR signals chemical shift δ ppm: 15.31 (ethoxy CH3), 66.15 (OCH2), 72.53 (C1), 23.18 (C2), 10.66 (C3) (in CDCl3)
