This is not surprising since the proton is not only vinylic but it is also alpha to a carbonyl group.
Chemical shift of vinylic protons.
Table of characteristic proton nmr chemical shifts.
Those bonded to carbon atoms which are in turn bonded to a highly electronegative element.
The chemical shift of protons connected to heteroatoms the second group of protons giving signal in this region is the ones bonded to heteroatoms such as oxygen and nitrogen.
And even though the signal can be in the range from 1 6 ppm it is usually in the downfield end of this spectrum.
The electrons are said to shield the proton from the applied magnetic field and this means that less energy is necessary to excite the proton from one spin state to another and therefore its chemical shift occurs at lower frequency than it would otherwise.
However this particular orientation makes such a large contribution that it dominates the chemical shift.

We know that a proton alpha to a carbonyl group is pulled downfield.
Those bonded to carbons which are next to unsaturated centres.
Notice that the proton closest to the carbonyl group is at a higher chemical shift than the proton in cyclohexene 6 05 ppm for cyclohexenone vs.
The proton nmr chemical shift is affect by nearness to electronegative atoms o n halogen and unsaturated groups c c c o aromatic.
Electronegative groups move to the down field left.
It is important to understand trend of chemical shift in terms of nmr interpretation.
Those bonded to carbons which are part of a saturated system.
Diamagnetic anisotropy is also responsible for the downfield chemical shifts of vinylic protons and aldehyde protons 4 5 6 5 ppm and 9 10 ppm respectively.
The chemical shift of a vinylic proton is an average over all orientations of the molecule.
Splitting between vinylic protons in alkenes depends strongly on the geometrical relation ship of the coupled protons.
State the approximate chemical shift δ for the following types of protons.
