    Question



    Reaction of white phosphorus with sulfur gives a mixture of products A, B and C. The 31P NMR spectral features of the resultant mixture are shown below.


    The products A, B and C, respectively, are

    A.

    P₄S₃, P₄S₁₀ and P₄S₇

    B.

    P₄S₇, P₄S₁₀ and P₄

    C.

    P₄S₃, P₄ and P₄S₁₀

    D.

    P₄S₁₀, P₄ and P₄S₇

    Correct option is A


    Phosphorus-31 NMR spectroscopy is an analytical chemistry technique that uses nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to study chemical compounds that contain phosphorus.
    In

    ​​​​​​​ , phosphorus atoms of type a will give a doublet by coupling with phosphorus atom of type b. Similarly, phosphorus atom of type b will give a quartet due to three phosphorus atoms of type a.
    In

    , all the phosphorus atoms are same and a singlet will be observed.
    In

    , two phosphorus atoms of type a will give a triplet by coupling with two phosphorus atoms of type b. Also, two phosphorus atoms of type b will give a triplet by coupling with two phosphorus atoms of type a.
