Abstract
An approximate procedure for the calculation of diamagnetic shielding in molecules is presented. The method proposed is based on the βcomplete neglect of differential overlapβ (CNDO) molecular wave functions and is formulated according to the zero differential overlap (ZDO) approximation. The results obtained with several CNDOβtype wave functions for diatomic and polyatomic molecules are in very good agreement with nonβempirical SCF calculations. The ^14^N diamagnetic shielding constants in several molecules were computed and some approximations usually adopted in the interpretation of ^14^N chemical shifts are critically discussed. It was shown that in some cases the observed ^14^N chemical shifts cannot be interpreted solely in terms of the paramagnetic contribution to the shielding constant.

Some shielding calculations, using Pople's SOS model, are reported for B, C, N, F, P and Si as a function of changes in bond length and pyramidal bond angle. In all cases considered, the shielding is predicted to decrease as the bond length increases, which is in line with the available experimental
