The 19F nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of β,β-difluorostyrenes and 1-difluoromethyleneindans bearing fluorine substituents in the aromatic ring have been recorded and the long-range couplings 6JF,F and 7JF,F are discussed. In each compound the larger couplings are to the olefinic fluorine trans to the aromatic ring. The couplings are maximum in the planar indans, reducing to unobservable values when non-planarity is achieved in suitably substituted styrenes. The allylic coupling 4JH,F involving olefinic fluorines shows only slight stereochemical dependence.

The 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of the α-methyl, cis and trans-β-methyl, 4-methyl, and β,β-dimethyl styrènes are analyzed to yield long-range proton–proton coupling constants. With the assumptin that the internal rotational potential for styrene in the gas phase is unaltered in solution, a consistent treatment of over 40 of the long-range coupling constants is given in terms of the known coupling mechanisms. Expectation values of sin2 θ, where θ is the angle of twist about the exocyclic carbon–carbon bond, are presented for these molecules. These are compared with theoretical potentials at the 6-31 G level of molecular orbital theory. The present data indicate rather larger average twist angles than those in the literature. The extrema (at θ = θ° and 90°) in the angle dependent long-range coupling constants appear to be rather smaller in magnitude than are theoretical values obtained from valence bond and molecular orbital approaches.
