Abstract

The recently modified J doubling in the frequency domain method (MJDFDM) allowed the determination of ^4, 5, 6^J in toluene, a series of 4‐mono‐ and 3,5‐disubstituted toluene derivatives, as well as in 4‐picoline. The methyl and aromatic signals were subjected to successive deconvolution processes, which at the end led to singlet signals and afforded the corresponding coupling constant values with a high degree of accuracy. Density functional theory calculation of benzylic coupling constants by addition of the Fermi contact, the spin‐dipole, the diamagnetic spin‐orbit, and the paramagnetic spin‐orbit terms revealed good agreement between predicted and measured values when the B3LYP/aug‐cc‐pVTZ level of theory was used. Evaluation of the substituent effect over the coupling constant was made for all studied compounds and some limitations of the methodology were evidenced. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

A new implementation of J doubling in the frequency domain is proposed. This modified J doubling uses novel sets of delta functions [..., +1, -1, +1, +1, -1, +1, ...] for in-phase multiplets and [..., -1, -1, -1, +1, +1, +1, ...] for antiphase multiplets.
