Application des relation de Mislow et Raban a la determination de configuration (mesothreo) par resonance magnetique nucleaire

The meso or threo configuration of diastereoisomeric molecules is elucidated on the basis of respective NMR spectra of either isomers. The symmetry relationship (according to Raban and Mislow) between protons or groups are not identical in each isomer, and the consequent differences in chemical shifts and spin-coupling constants permit assignment of configurations.
