NUCLEAR MAGNETIC RESONANCE SPECTROSCOPY: 13 C SPECTRA OF UNSUBSTITUTED INOSITOLS

Abstract
The chemical shifts of 13 C in natural abundance have been obtained from nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of scyllo-, myo-, chiro- , and epi -inositols at 15.1 MHz. A set of empirical substitutent parameters were derived and shown to be moderately successful in correlating the 13 C resonance-line positions for these substances. The substituent parameters conform generally to the idea that steric hindrance or porximity effects are of special importance in influencing chemical shifts of carbons in cyclohexane systems.
