The carbon-13 chemical shifts for 214 distinct sites (the 4-carbons) in 24 sets of 1-X,4-Y-disubstituted benzenes and for 270 distinct sites (the 1- and 2-carbons) in 16 of these sets are reproduced with excellent precision (correlation coefficients 0.99 or greater) either by linear proportionality relationships with the appropriate substituent chemical shift (scs) in a mono-substituted benzene (for the 4-carbons), or by simple additivity relationships with the scs (for the 1- and 2-carbons).Inconsistencies are pointed out in a theoretical rationalization of 4-carbon shifts used in discussing the non-additivity of these shifts in terms of a DSP approach, whereas the above one-parameter approach yields sets of proportionality constants (slopes of scs relative to Y = H) following systematic trends which are interpreted as results of changes in the excitation energy term at carbon-4 dependent upon the ionization potential of the group Y. There is no significant association between the scs slopes and sets of calculated CNDO/2 electron densities for these para-disubstituted benzenes.

77Se and 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectra have been measured for selenols (RSeH), diselenides (RSeSeR), and selenenyl sulfides (RSeSR′), including selenenyl sulfides formed by reaction of glutathione and penicillamine with selenocystine and related diselenides. Exchange processes strongly affect the 77Se and 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of all three classes of compounds. Sharp, exchange-averaged resonances are observed in the 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of selenols; however, selenol proton exchange causes the 77Se resonances to be extremely broad over the pH range where the selenol group is titrated. Selenol/diselenide exchange [Formula: see text] also results in exchange-averaged 1H resonances for solutions containing RSeH and RSeSeR; however, the 77Se resonances were too broad to detect. Exchange reactions have similar effects on nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of solutions containing selenols and selenenyl sulfides. The results indicate selenol/diselenide exchange is much faster than thiol/disulfide exchange. The 77Se chemical shift depends on the chemical state of the selenium, e.g., titration of the selenol group of selenocysteamine causes the 77Se resonance to be shielded by 164 ppm, oxidation of the selenol to form the diselenide selenocystamine causes a deshielding of 333 ppm, and oxidation to form the selenenyl sulfide [Formula: see text] results in a deshielding of 404 ppm. 77Se chemical shifts were found to be in the range −240 to −270 ppm (relative to (CH3)2Se) for selenolates, approximately −80 ppm for selenols, 230–360 ppm for diselenides, and 250–340 ppm for selenenyl sulfides. The 77Se chemical shift is also affected by titration of neighboring carboxylic acid and ammonium groups, and their pkA values can be calculated from 77Se chemical shift data.

Chemical shifts and coupling constants are tabulated for the protons of the pyrrolizidine nucleus in 40 pyrrolizidine alkaloids and derivatives. The effect of acylation of hydroxyl substituents on C7 and C9 and the very large difference in chemical shift of the H9 protons in the macrocyclic diester alkaloids is discussed. The direction of buckling of the saturated ring can be ascertained from the H5,H6 vicinal coupling constants or from the width of the H7 multiplet if H7 bears an oxygen substituent. In general, retronecine derivatives are exo-buckled whereas heliotridine derivatives consist of interconverting exo- and endo-buckled forms.

The nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of the aromatic protons of DDT and 31 of its analogs and derivatives have been analyzed. Chemical shifts of these molecules are functions of the electronegativities of the substituents on the ring, as well as those in the aliphatic portion, although substitution of the ring chlorine in DDT by either a nitro or a t-butyl group leads to anomalous values. Molecular orbital calculations show that the chemical shift of the proton ortho to the ring substituent depends upon the π electron density at the corresponding carbon, but the chemical shift of the proton meta to this substituent is independent of the π electron density at the corresponding carbon. The data also indicate that the two aromatic rings in DDT are independent of each other.

Carbon-13 chemical shift data have been obtained for a number of isothiazole, benzo[c]isothiazole, 1,2-dithiole, and 1,3-dithiole derivatives. A number of these compounds are thiones and the chemical shifts of the C=S carbons are discussed in the light of recent attempts to predict such chemical shifts from those of the analogous carbonyl compounds. Comparisons of substituent chemical shift (s.c.s.) effects in these heterocyclic compounds with those in simpler aromatic or conjugated systems have been made and additivity correlations tested in a number of cases.

Previously reported 13C chemical shift assignments for C-15 and C-16 of a number of 17β-acetyl steroids related to progesterone have been shown to be reversed. Based on the revised assignment the effect of bromo- and hydroxy-substitution at C-17 on C-12, C-14, C-15, and C-16 is assessed.

The chemical shifts and coupling constants of the protons in retronecine and heliotridine are derived by detailed analysis of the nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of these compounds. The factors which influence the appearance and ease of interpretation of spectra of pyrrolizidine derivatives, principally the chemical shift difference of the H 6 protons and conformational averaging, are discussed. The conformations of retronecine and heliotridine are discussed in relation to their coupling constants; the former compound is exo-buckled whereas the latter is a mixture of rapidly interconverting exo- and endo-buckled forms.

The previously reported 1:1 complexes formed in MeNO2, between M(SbF6)2 (M = Sn or Pb) and Ph2P(CH2)2PPh2, PhP[(CH2)2PPh2]2, MeC(CH2PPh2)3, P[(CH2)2PPh2]3, and [Formula: see text] have been studied by metal (119Sn or 207Pb) nmr. The metal chemical shifts span the comparatively narrow range of −586 to −792 ppm and 60 to −269 ppm, relative to the resonance of MMe4, for 119Sn and 207Pb nmr, respectively. The implications of these data regarding the denticity of the ligand in M(P[(CH2)2PPh2]3)2+ are discussed, and a comparison with the metal nmr spectra of related stannous and plumbous complexes is made.

The proton resonance spectra of pyridine, 2,6-pyridine-d2, 3-pyridine-d1, and 4-pyridine-d1 have been obtained for the pure liquids under conditions of high resolution. The spectra have been analyzed as proton groupings of AB2X2, AB2, perturbed ABX, and B2X2 respectively. The spin-coupling constants obtained from analysis of the simpler spectra of the deuterated molecules were used to suggest trial solutions for the analysis of the complicated AB2X2 spectrum of pyridine. A final set of chemical shifts and spin-coupling constants derived for pyridine give satisfactory agreement between the observed and calculated spectrum.
