The 1H NMR of ethanol in CDCl3 will consist of three signals in the spectra: a triplet at 1.25 ppm, a quartet at 3.72 ppm, and a broad singlet at 1.32 ppm. In DMSO-d6(deuterated DMSO) the broad singlet is found at 4.63 ppm. Why is there such a dramatic change in the singlet’s position (clearly describe what is happening with structure)?
