E. Kolehmainen et al., COMPLETE SPECTRAL-ANALYSIS OF THE H-1-NMR 16-SPIN SYSTEM OF BETA-PINENE, Magnetic resonance in chemistry, 35(7), 1997, pp. 463-467
The complete analysis of the H-1 NMR spectrum of beta-pinene, (1S)-(-)
-6,6-dimethyl-2- methylenebicyclo[3.1.1]heptane, which is of the ABCDE
PGHIJX(3)Y(3) type, is reported and earlier results are corrected. The
vicinal coupling constants, (3)J(H,H), are compared with the theoreti
cal values calculated by using the Altona and co-workers' equations fo
r the structure derived by molecular modelling. The results were appli
ed to the conformational analysis of beta-pinene. (C) 1997 by John Wil
