On the basis of the effects of the hydroxyl group on the 13C nuclear magnetic resonance chemical shifts of the olefinic carbons, a new parameter was defined and a new rule was proposed for the assignment of the stereochemistry of secondary six-membered cyclic allylic alcohols.

The differences in chemical shifts of olefinic carbons, Δδ(sp2), of pseudoequatorial and pseudoaxial six-membered allylic alcohols were correlated with the Δδ(sp2) values of their parent olefins. The results obtained reflect configurationally dependent substituent effects, the magnitude of which could be used for the stereochemical assignment of the hydroxyl group in these compounds.

A variety of alkyl vanadates has been studied by 51V nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. It was found that the equilibrium constant for condensation of vanadate with alcohols is insensitive to whether the hydroxyl group is primary, secondary, or tertiary. These products, however, have characteristic vanadium chemical shifts that allow assignment of nmr signals to the appropriate ester. It was also found that chemical shifts are additive in the sense that the chemical shifts of the esters ROVO3H− are one half the chemical shift of the diesters (RO)2VO2− when those shifts are given relative to −559 ppm. This effect is independent of whether the signals are to high or low field of −559 ppm and the additivity extends to mixed ligand systems. This value of −559 ppm is close but not equal to the chemical shift of the vanadate monoanion, H2VO41−, which is at −561 ppm. These results are at variance with arguments concerning the effects of ligand bulkiness on chemical shifts of vanadium(V) complexes.

Low temperature 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy has been employed to obtain the chemical shifts and to examine the conformational equilibria of the four chlorohydrins and bromohydrins of 3-methoxycyclohexene. The corresponding acetates and the unsubstituted halohydrins have also been examined. The observed chemical shifts were compared with those calculated from additivity considerations. Limitations of this approach are discussed. Relative peak area measurements have been used to obtain conformational free energies in favourable cases.

13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of diastereomeric C-24 alkyl sterols have been assigned. Differences in the chemical shifts of side-chain carbons permitted the determination of the absolute configuration at C-24 in several sterols since these chemical shifts are insensitive to structural changes remote from the asymmetric centre. An unknown sterol from Tetraselmissuecica has been identified as (24R)-24-methylcholest-5-en-3β-ol and the configuration assigned from 1H nmr data to the sterol from Phaeodoctylumtricornutum has been confirmed. The utility and potential of this method in characterising new sterols and their biological precursors is discussed.

Detailed studies, by 1H and 19F nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, of a series of fully esterified pentopyranosyl fluorides, show that all such derivatives favor that conformer in which the fluorine substituent is axially oriented. This conclusion is supported by separate considerations of the vicinal and geminal19F–1H and 1H–1H coupling constants, of the long-range (4J) 1H–1H and 19F–1H coupling constants and of the 19F chemical shifts. The limitations of the above conformational model are discussed.
