Question

Refer to the 1H NMR spectrum of the 2-aminocyclohexanol and measure the coupling constants for the protons at 2.5 ppm and 3.2 ppm - The protons are adjacent to the NH

and OH respectively. Use these coupling constants to provide evidence that the product is structure shown below and explain each proton coupling. This is the trans di-equatorial product. Typical J values are: Jaxial-axial = 8 to 13 Hz Jequatorial - equatorial = 2 to 6 Hz
