Abstract

A linear correlation was determined for oxygen- and nitrogen-containing solvents between the proton NMR shift of chloroform, dilute in a solvent, and the donor number (DN) of that solvent. Results are given for water and for 13 organic solvents. The best straight line is given by DN=7.4-16.6Δδ (CHCl₃) where Δδ (CHCl₃) is the shift of pure chloroform relative to that of chloroform in dilute solution. Donor numbers of several solvents were estimated from the correlation.
