Abstract
13C nmr chemical shifts and 13C–31P couplings through one to five bonds are reported for seven dimethylphosphono compounds of known geometry. Vicinal couplings are maximal for a dihedral angle of 180° and are severely attenuated by OH substitution, particularly when the OH is trans-coplanar to the carbon terminus of the coupling path. When a cyclopropyl system is part of the C–C–C–P path the J values are much less than those predicted on the basis of dinedral angle. A highly asymmetric dihedral dependence of vicinal J's is suggested. Some 'non-W' long range C–P couplings through saturated networks are found. The 'gauche-γ' shift of the —P(O)(OCH3)2 group is about 2 ppm.Keywords
