chemistry.umeche.maine.edu/CHY251/NMR.Table.html shows a good table of 1H and 13C chemical shifts; this might help you get started. Are your 1H and 13C spectra of the same compound? Have you checked the purity of the material? Can you provide some information about the experimental conditions (e.g., instrument frequencies, etc.)? Other background of sample? Any additional information? Was the 1H spectrum obtained at a fairly low field? Expansions of the spectral regions and more accurate integrals of the 1H resonances might help. The 13C spectrum was obviously not obtained under quantitative conditions, so the relative number of carbons cannot be accurately established.
Preliminary examination of your spectra: Both spectra indicate large amounts of aliphatic vs. aromatic nuclei. The 13C spectrum suggests four different types of aromatic carbons, or 3 plus one =CHR type (4 peaks in the ca.125-152 ppm range), numerous aliphatic carbon types including terminal CH3-R (from the proton spectrum a CH3CH2- type ("triplet"), and a possibly CH3Ar type). The peak at ca. 59.5 ppm could be from CH3OR or CH3OAr, but that is inconsistent with the proton spectrum; another possibility is RCH2NR2 No evidence of carbonyl carbons (aldehyde, carboxylic acid, ketone, amide). The ca. 77 resonance is from the solvent, CD3Cl. I'll take a more detailed look if you wish.
