The assignments are : ppm, H, doublet of quartets; : ppm, H, doublet of quartets; : ppm, H, quartet; : ppm, H, triplet. The chemical shift of a multiplet is its centre, rather than its most downfield line.
Each vinylic proton has scalar spin-spin coupling to the other vinylic proton and to three equivalent spin- fluorine nuclei. The first interaction produces a doublet, and the second a quartet: eight lines overall, partly interleaved for . The two chemical shifts differ because the vinylic sites have different substituents.
