I am currently annotating my ¹³C NMR of (S)-2-hydroxy-3-phenylpropanoic acid. I am confused about whether there are peaks from the solvent I used which was acetone-d6. I figure the multiplet to the right may be from the solvent. I have annotated it some, and trying to continue annotating it. If anyone could help me out a bit that would be awesome. Thanks.

I have the peak at ~41 to be carbon 3. And the peak at ~72 to be carbon 2.

I have the peak at ~41 to be carbon 3. And the peak at ~72 to be carbon 2.

I agree with that.

The peaks around 30 and 200 ppm are from (CD₃)₂CO.

What do you want more? You have a very clean spectra. Congrats.

You wouldn´t have to open a new thread just for asking the shifts of Acetone-d6. Since you are working with it you should know it before you put it inside the NMR tube or google by yourself.

Thanks for your help everyone. I finished annotating it 2 days ago and it was correct. I appreciate the input.

You might ask yourself why the peak near 30 ppm has the multiplet structure that it does.
