Question:

11B-NMR is an excellent spectroscopic tool for inferring the structures of boron compounds. With 11B–11B coupling ignored, it is possible to determine the number of attached H atoms by the multiplicity of a resonance: BH gives a doublet, BH2 a triplet, and BH3 a quartet. B atoms on the closed side of nido and arachno clusters are generally more shielded than those on the open face. Assuming no B–B or B–H–B coupling, predict the general pattern of the 11B-NMR spectra of 

(a) BH3CO

(b) [B12H12]2−.
