## Abstract The __syn__/__anti__ dependences of the alkyl ^13^C chemical shifts provide a useful probe of stereochemistry around the amide bonds in peptides and proteins. To investigate these dependences the __ab initio__ IGLO method was used to obtain the ^13^C chemical shielding for the following

Abstract
Ab initio NMR shieldings, based on the Hansen and Bouman theory, were calculated for some polyene compounds in order to apply the method to retinal proteins. It is shown that the ab initio results reproduce well the magnetic properties peculiar to the polyene ^13^C chemical shifts. In addition, the ^13^C and ^15^N shieldings were calculated for several amines as model compounds of the retinal moiety located in bacteriorhodopsin, and the effect on the chemical shifts of the syn–anti orientation about the CN double bond and the protonation of the Schiff base was investigated.
