You are labeling the H on borneol in preparation for doing 1H-NMR analysis. Would you expect the two H of the CH2 adjacent to where the OH is attached to be equivalent to each other? Explain briefly based on what you know about NMR equivalence and the nature of rings. A diagram is not required but drawing one might help clarify your answer.
