Homework Statement
Draw the skeletal structure of the compound with molecular formulaC3H4Cl4 whose proton NMR spectrum contains a down-field triplet and an up-field triplet with relative integration of 2:2.
2. Rationale for Solution
Integration ratio of 2:2 means CH2-CH2, after this one carbon and 4 Cl left. One carbon must have 3 Cl and the last chlorine must be attached to one of the CH2 to complete C octet
The Attempt at a Solution
My solution for this is Cl3C-CH2-CH2-Cl but it is being marked wrong. I don't know why.
