proton nmr for m-xylene

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
here's were the 4 signals for xylene come from.

we'll number the carbons to make it easier. C1 would be the carbon with methyl group attached to it and going clockwise.

C1 and C3, hydrogens on methyl are equivalent. results in singlet.

C2 would give rise to another singlet

C4 and C6 their hydrogens are equivalent. You get a doublet

lastly C5, you get a triplet.

Did this come from top score? I remember a question they had on xylene

yes it did, dumb me forgot that benzene gives symmetrical protons. I just finished watching chads video again and i understand now. its sad, im getting the easy questions wrong.
