200 180 160 140 120 100 80 60 40 20 OH OH OH COOCH3 H3C. COOH H₂CO. CHO J & J A B a) (10 marks) The ¹3C NMR spectrum depicted above is that of one of the three compounds A, B or C. Match the spectrum to the appropriate compound, explaining your choice by calculating chemical shifts as appropriate and clearly indicating signal assignments for your chosen compound. Briefly comment on the observed chemical shifts and signal intensities. Use the information in the table below to assist you.
