Abstract
The ^19^F n.m.r. spectrum of hexafluoroquinazoline has been analyzed giving the signs and magnitudes of all but two of the coupling constants, and supporting the analyses of the ^19^F n.m.r. spectra of heptafluoroquinoline and heptafluoroisoquinoline. Long range FF inter‐ring coupling constants are a guide for assessing π‐electron delocalization pathways. In addition, nitrogen in the β position enhances the distant F‐5, F‐7 meta‐coupling constant, implying a π‐contribution to J(FF)meta. A rationalization of changes in peri‐coupling constants is also presented. The observed changes appear to be the sum of two effects: (i) ring contraction by the insertion of shorter CN bonds into the aromatic ring and (ii) a secondary effect which is dependent on the existence of a β‐nitrogen, adjacent to the peri nuclei.

## Abstract An analysis of the ^19^F n.m.r. spectra of heptafluoroisoquinoline and hexafluoro‐1‐methoxyisoquinoline is presented. As in heptafluoroquinoline, the inter‐ring FF coupling constants alternate in sign and magnitude and are positive over an odd number of bonds. They correlate with SCFMO
## Abstract Analyses of the ^19^F and ^1^H spectra of 1,2,3,4,5‐pentafluoro‐, 1‐bromo‐4,5,6,7,8‐pentafluoro‐, 1,2,3,4,5,6‐hexafluoro‐, and 1‐bromo‐3,4,5,6,7,8‐hexafluoro‐naphthalene are presented, and it is observed that the Fermi contact mechanism does not, simply, account for the long range coupl
