An equation which relates the ortho carbon-13 substituent chemical shift α-SCS in aza-aromatics to the ortho proton-proton coupling constant 3J(HH) in the corresponding carbocyclic compound is derived from experimental data. The implications for N-N bond fixation in diaza-aromatics are discussed. When the equation is applied to 2-substituted pyridines, an electronegativity parameter must be included to explain the results.

The 100 MHz spectra of the phenyl protons in 2-(3-chlorophenyl) oxetane and 2-(2-chlorophenyl) oxetane have been analysed. The 60 MHz PMR chemical shifts and proton-proton coupling constants have been studied in the temperature range from -20 C to +80 °C. The chemical shifts were sensitive to temperature, while the coupling constants were not, except the long range 5Jm coupling constant between the methine proton and the meta positioned phenyl proton in 2-(2-chlorophenyl) oxetane.

Some 30 proton chemical shifts and proton–proton coupling constants are reported for a 4.7 mol% solution of 3-phenylpentane in a CS2/C6D12/TMS solvent mixture at 300 K. The long-range coupling constant over six formal bonds between the methine and para protons is used to deduce an apparent twofold barrier of 15.0 ± 0.3 kJ/mol to rotation about the Csp2—Csp3 bond, at least twice as large as that for isopropylbenzene in solution. AM1 computations agree with experiment in finding the conformation of lowest energy as that in which the methine C—H bond is situated in the phenyl plane, but predict a barrier height of only 13.9 kJ/mol. The vicinal coupling constants are consistent with a fractional population, 0.38(2), of the TT conformer, that in which all the carbon atoms of the alkyl chain lie in a plane. A doubly degenerate conformer, TG+(G−T), in which one methyl group is twisted away from the phenyl substituent, then has a fractional population of 0.62(2). The assumption that only these three conformers are present is tested with the signs and magnitudes of the four different coupling constants over four bonds. These coupling constants are consistent with the absence of significant proportions of the other six all-staggered conformers. These six are characterized by a close approach of the methyl groups (1,5 interactions) or by proximity of the methyl and phenyl moieties.

All possible mono-, di-, and tri- O-methyl, O-benzyl, O-benzoyl, and O-acetyl derivatives of methyl β-D-xylopyranoside were fully trimethylsilylated and their 1H and 13C NMR spectra measured in deuteriochloroform solutions. The spectra were analysed and the chemical shifts completely assigned on the basis of decoupling experiments. The proton-proton coupling constants vary only very little throughout the series. Conformer population analysis by the method of average coupling constants shows that trimethylsilylation increases the C1 conformer population and makes the series conformationally homogenous. Owing to this conformational homogeneity chemical shifts (both 1H and 13C) satisfy very well direct additivity rule. It is suggested that pertrimethylsilylation should be employed whenever deviations from chemical shift additivity are caused by conformational mobility of the investigated series of compounds and when bulky groups can stabilize one of the conformers.

The proton chemical shift and the geminal proton–proton and cis proton–fluorine coupling constants in 1-chloro-1-fluoroethylene depend primarily on the dielectric constant of the medium, although this dependence is not given by the Onsager reaction field model. A roughly linear relationship is found with the square root of the dielectric constant. The proton coupling constant decreases algebraically while the cis proton–fluorine coupling constant increases as the dielectric constant of the medium increases. The trans proton–fluorine coupling depends on dispersion interactions with the solvent molecules and increases as these interactions increase. The geminal coupling constant varies between − 3.8 and − 4.8 c.p.s., the cis coupling between 7.6 and 12.3 c.p.s., and the trans coupling between 36.9 and 38.6 c.p.s.

13C chemical shift variations within a series of phenyl, furyl and thienyl Group IVB organometallics appear to be best understood in terms of the usual alkyl and aryl substituent effects on 13C chemical shifts and not variations in dπ ?pπ metal-aryl interactions. Large changes in 13C-metal scalar coupling constants have been observed suggesting that other factors besides the s-character of the carbon-metal bond is responsible in determining the coupling constant.

The selectivity of tritium labelling of double bonds by partial hydrogenation of the acetylenic analogue on Lindlar catalyst is investigated by 3H and 13C n.m.r. Examples of both the secondary isotope effect on chemical shift and the usefulness of 3H n.m.r, measurements to calculate proton-proton coupling constants are described. In the absence of proton coupling a finite difference (0.014 ppm) in the chemical shift of tritons at positions 9 and 10 of methyl (Z)-[9,10-3H]octadec-9-enoate is observed.

The geminal coupling constants between the non-equivalent benzylic protons of a series of para- and meta-substituted N-benzyl-2-methylpiperidines were shown to be proportional to the Hammett σ constants of the substituents with ρ −1.38 in carbon tetrachloride, −1.21 in benzene, and nearly 0 in 1 N DCl solutions. The ρ values were compared with those of other series and were discussed in terms of the possible conformations involved. The chemical shifts of the benzylic protons of the piperidine derivatives did not give a good correlation with the Hammett σ constants in these solvents.

The 13C NMR spectra and vicinal proton–proton coupling constants of two tricyclic macrolactone natural products were analyzed using computational methods, which resulted in their structural revisions.

The effect of substituents at the 3-position in a series of N-methyl 5,6-dihydro-7H,12H-di-benzo[c,f]azocines on the geminal coupling constants of the C-12 methylene protons has been determined. The slope of the Hammett plot of 2J vs. σ has been found to be +0.20. The orientation of the methylene protons with respect to the π orbitals of the benzene ring bearing the substituent is such that no hyperconjugative effect should be present. The value of +0.20 is in contrast to a previously measured slope of −1.9 for compounds having a geometry ideal for hyperconjugative effects and substantiates the predictions of theoretical MO calculations. As a result, the reliability of this conformational dependence of ρ for use in conformational analysis has been strengthened.A comparison of the data for the azocines with those in the literature indicates the difference between the minimum and maximum effects of a phenyl substituent on a geminal coupling constant of an attached methylene group is 5.5 Hz.
