The 13C,H coupling constants in structural and conformational analysis: II The correlation of 3J(HCCH) and 3J(CH3CCH) in ethylenes and their methyl derivatives

The vicinal ³J(C H₃C?CH ) coupling constants were determined for a number of propylene derivatives and compared with the ³J(H C?CH ) couplings of the corresponding ethylenes. A linear regression analysis yielded the correlation ³J(CH) = 0.46 ׳ J(HH)+1.58 Hz, the correlation coefficient being 0.956.
