Cis- Trans Equilibrium of N-Acetyl-L-Proline

Purpose: Using H-NMR, in this experiment we sought to study the effect of pH and polarity of the solvent on the Ktrans values of N-Acetyl-L-Proline. The Ktrans values are a means to examine the equilibrium between cis and trans isomers of N-Acetyl-L-Proline. The area under the peak of the H NMR was integrated and divided accordingly to give the Ktransvalues. Ktrans values were used in the calculation of the proportion of cis isomers in the sample. The picture below depicts […]
