P-31, C-13 NMR and (1)J(C,P), (2)J(C,P) and (3)J(C,P) coupling constants ar
e reported. The stereochemistry (E and Z) of a series of new acyclic beta-p
hosphonylated hydrazones was assigned on the basis of the chemical shifts o
f carbons in alpha (C-1) and alpha' (C-3) positions with respect to the C=N
moiety. Copyright (C) 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
