| Abstract: | Nuclear magnetic resonance of hydroxyl proton of four butyl alcohols have been measured as a function of alcohol concentration in carbon tetrachloride solvent. Assuming equilibria among monomer, open-dimer and cyclic dimer for alcohol association, the chemical shifts of the hydroxyl proton both at the bonded state and at the non-bonded state and also the equilibrium constants were determined from the observation at a moderate dilution. The results were tabulated in Table 1 and shown in Fig. 1. |
