Question

I am confused as to how to go about solving this problem.

I already split them into three distinct hydrogens: the methyl group hydrogens, the hydrogens to the farther left of the NO2 group, and the hydrogens closest to the NO2 group.

For the methyl group hydrogens, I expect 1 peak, for the ones farther to the left I expect n+1 = 2+1 = 3 peaks, but for the ones nearest the NO2 group, I believe they go through complex splitting and am confused. Detailed explanation would be appreciated.

For the following compound, label the unique protons and predict the splitting for each. If
complex splitting is involved, be sure to label the protons involved along with their
coupling constants.
NO₂
