1-methoxy-2-methylpropane , iso-butyl methyl ether, isomers of C5H12O  structural formula alcohols and ether structure and naming (c) doc b

 structural formula of 1-methoxy-2-methylpropane (isobutyl methyl ether) ,  skeletal formula of 1-methoxy-2-methylpropane (isobutyl methyl ether) A branched ether, isomer of C5H12O

Number of low resolution NMR chemical shift δ signal peaks: 4 1H and 4 13C

For the NMR spectra of 1-methoxy-2-methylpropane (isobutyl methyl ether), reading the structural formula from left to right and applying the simplified n+1 rule for chemical shift splitting due to immediately adjacent non-equivalent protons:

1H NMR integrated ratio of peaks: 3 : 2 : 1 : 6 (2x3) (for equivalent protons)

1H NMR signals chemical shift δ ppm: ~3.35 (singlet), ~3.15 (C1, doublet), ~1.85 (C2, nonet), ~0.9 (2xC3, doublet) (in CDCl3)

13C NMR signals chemical shift δ ppm: 57 (OCH3), 78 (C1), 28 (C2), 18 (2xC3) (in CDCl3)
