560 CHAPTER 15 A similar effect is expected from the ester group: In summary, if we take into account all resonance effects (described above), the following picture emerges: Notice that only two protons are directly attached to electron-deficient centers: These are the two protons that are expected to produce the two signals farthest downfield in the proton NMR spectrum. (b) In compound 1, the C4 position is electron-deficient, as seen in the third resonance structure below: and the C3 position is electron-rich, as highlighted below: As a result, the C3-C4 bond is highly polarized and is expected to produce a strong signal. www.MyEbookNiche.eCrater.com
