A previous study of the effect of meta- and para-CH2X substituents on the 13C n.m.r. chemical shifts of the α and β side-chain carbons of β- methoxycarbonylstyrenes (methyl cinnamates ) in ethanol has been extended to cover five additional solvents (Me2SO, Me2CO, CDCl3, CCl4 and C6H6). The results support the earlier claim that, for most substituents , the magnitudes of the substituent -induced shifts are proportional to the inductive effect of X. The major contributor to the latter appears to be the field effect generated by the C-X dipole, with the lines of force passing mainly through the molecule. In non-polar solvents, however, there is evidence that lines of force passing directly through the solvent can also influence the shifts in both the meta and para series.

The 13C nmr chemical shifts of aliphatic hydrocarbons were derived from chemical shifts and probabilities of individual chain conformations. Conformer resonances were calculated with parameters developed for conformationally homogeneous cyclic molecules. Conformer populations were derived from bond rotation potentials and steric energy contributions, available from independent sources. This analysis contains non adjustable parameters. It represents a unified treatment of cyclic and acyclic hydrocarbon resonances, which is capable of dealing with molecular asymmetry and thus permits the determination of configuration in aliphatic hydrocarbons.

The carbon-13 substituent chemical shifts of the ipso and carbonyl atoms in the para-substituted series Z-C6H4CONY2 (where Y = Me, Pri, Ph) have been measured at low dilution in (D)chloroform, and dimethyl sulfoxide. The DSP equation has been shown to hold for varying side chain conformations with high precision when the same resonance substituent parameter is used. Analysis of these data by the DSP equation indicates that the 'reverse substituent chemical shift effect' for the carbonyl atom is substantially due to a localized polarization of the π-electron system of the amide side chain. The ratio of localized to extended π-polarization of the β position of the amide side chain has been estimated. It is suggested that the effective dielectric constant term for the transmission of field effects by the cavity model varies with side chain conformation. The Cl substituent shifts have been discussed in terms of the shift-charge ratio. A variable-temperature study of the DSP parameters indicates an insignificant temperature effect provided rotation around the benzene ring to amide side chain bond is rapid.
