13C-NMR Spectrum
• In solution: Thirteen signals because
1. 2. 3, 4-Tetraphenyinaphthalene
we assume a free rotation about the
o-bonds (marked in red) resulting in
a high (apparent) degree of symmetry.
Overlap of
two tall signals
Ipso: five small signals (no H-atom)
Ortho/meta: four large signals (2 each)
Para/naphthalene: four medium
signals (1 each)
• In solid: At least seventeen signals
because of the hindered (slow) rotation
about the o-bonds leads to lower
140
135
130
degree of symmetry in the phenyl rings
(six signals instead of four signals as
expected for mono-substituted phenyl
ring because of the hindered rotation).
