Abstract

AbstractA large number of 13C13C coupling constants from a diversity of compounds are now available. Attempts have been made to classify this information in order to illustrate how these data are obtained, how signs are determined and how both two‐ and three‐bond couplings can lead to structural information. Coupling constants in aromatic compounds are now well documented, substituent effect trends have been established and correlations with bond orders are noticed. Comparison of 13C13C couplings with 13C1H couplings is mentioned. Theoretical calculations are dealt with, and these can now be properly evaluated as both magnitudes and signs of the experimental couplings are known. Finally, the occurrence of long range couplings in biosynthetic material is briefly surveyed.
