The magnitudes of nJ(C, F) for n = 3, 4, 5 bonds are remeasured for benzotrifluoride. The signs of 2J(C, F) and 3J(C, F) are determined for 4-chloro-3,5-dinitrobenzotrifluoride and that of 5J(C, F) for 2-amino-3,5-dibromobenzotrifluoride. 4J(C, F) is not observable in these compounds. The contact contributions to nJ(C, F) are calculated for benzotrifluoride by INDO MO FPT. The long-range coupling constants are discussed in terms of the mechanisms which transmit nuclear spin state information. It seems that 5J(C, F) is a σ–π coupling, 4J(C, F) is a composite of a and σ–π components of opposite sign, and that 3J(C, F) has a Karplus behaviour modified by a σ–π contribution.

Unlike their counterparts in anisole or toluene derivatives, the six-bond spin–spin coupling constants between para ring protons or 19F nuclei and protons or 13C nuclei in the sidechain of derivatives of benzaldehyde, acetophenone, and benzophenone can apparently contain components of opposite sign, at least for the fluorine derivatives. The σ–π components are much smaller in magnitude than in toluene derivatives, leading to very small or unobservable coupling constants. Consequently they are of limited use in conformational analysis. INDO MO FPT computations and their modifications are examined as to the reasons for the small σ–π magnitudes. Although the spin polarizability of the 2pz orbital on oxygen appears to play an important role in the transmission of nuclear spin state information, the computations do not account for a 19F coupling mechanism that appears to be significant for planar conformations. On the other hand, spin–spin coupling constants over five formal bonds to meta protons are sizeable and stereospecific.

The signs of all proton–proton and proton–fluorine spin–spin coupling constants in 2-fluoro-3-methylpyridine have been determined by double and triple resonance experiments. The signs of the longrange coupling constants, JH,CH3 and JF,CH3 are the same as in fluorotoluene derivatives. Their magnitudes are consistent with the assumption that the nitrogen atom primarily polarizes the σ bonds in the molecule, leaving the π contribution to the long-range coupling relatively unaffected.
