Abstract: | The 13C NMR spectra of pure exo-2-norbornyltrimethylstannane and a mixture of the exo- and endo-isomers have been recorded. 1H–13C polarization transfer spectra have been obtained and require the previously reported assignments for C-3 and C-4 in the exo-isomer to be reversed. The reported assignments for the endo-isomer are correct. The new assignment for C-4-exo with J(119Sn,13C) vic=12 Hz, instead of the previously assigned J(vic)=23 Hz], has a very minor effect on the nature of the Karplus curve for 3J(119Sn,13C)] generated previously. |
