Abstract
AbstractProton and carbon NMR data are provided for 21 ring A and ring B cyclosteroids and cyclopropano (or methylene) steroids. Shift assignments were made using standard 2D NMR techniques, while ring A proton subspectra were extracted with a 1D TOCSY experiment. Coupling constants were obtained from iterative spin system simulation of these sub‐spectra. Ring A conformations were determined from the two‐ and three‐bond proton‐proton couplings and NOE measurements. The utility and limitations of extended Karplus‐type equations, the effect of cyclopropyl groups on vicinal and geminal couplings and cyclopropane‐induced chemical shifts are discussed.
