Abstract
Transoid homoallylic coupling constants (5JH,H) for six compounds (5,10-dihydroindeno[2,1-alindene and confertifolin derivatives) of fixed stereochemistry were determined and compared with calculated values. Magnetic equivalence limited discrete determination of 5Jtrans and 5Jcis to three of these compounds. The single compound where unequivocal assignment could be made revealed 5Jtrans > 5Jcis; this was supported in two other compounds by tentative assignment. Changes in the magnitude of the couplings suggested that substantial substituent effects may be operative. INDO-MO calculations correctly predicted the angular dependence but incorrectly predicted 5Jcis > 5Jtrans.
