Vicinal Hydrogens
( \newcommand{\kernel}{\mathrm{null}\,}\)
Vicinal hydrogens are the hydrogen atoms on adjacent atoms in an organic molecule.
eg. 1:
H1 and H2 in 1 are on adjacent carbon atoms. Therefore, they are vicinal hydrogens.
eg. 2:
H1 and H2 in 2 are on adjacent carbon atoms. Therefore, they are vicinal hydrogens.
