Abstract
The ^1^H and ^13^C NMR spectra of s‐trioxane partially oriented in three nematic solvents were analysed, and the measured dipolar coupling constants, corrected for harmonic vibrations and for correlated deformation, were used to obtain information about the r~α~ structure of the molecule. It is concluded that the s‐trioxane molecule oscillates between two equivalent chair conformers and the methylene protons are tilted outwards from the threefold symmetry axis. The optimized values for the geometric parameters are 1.111 (2) Å for the CH bond length, 110.3 (3)° for the HCH bond angle and −2.1 (3)° for the methylene rocking coordinate.

## Abstract The indirect and direct proton–proton, proton–carbon and proton–nitrogen coupling constants of benzonitrile have been measured from proton spectra with natural abundance satellites, and also from proton and ^15^N spectra of the molecule enriched in ^13^C or ^15^N at the cyano group, bot
The r, structures of ethylene and 1,l-difluoroethylene have been determined by NMR of partially oriented molecules, considering the interaction between the solute molecule and the liquid crystal solvent which leads to a correlation between molecular vibration and rotation. The analysis of the data a
