Abstract

Theoretical and experimental ^2^J~HH~ coupling constants for six‐membered rings containing oxygen or sulfur atoms were studied to investigate whether the ^2^J~HH~ coupling constant can be used for stereoelectronic studies in heterocyclohexanes, instead of ^1^J~CH~, because it is well known that experimental measurements of ^2^J~HH~ coupling constants at low temperature are much easier to determine than the corresponding ^1^J~CH~ couplings. For all compounds studied here, the ^2^J~HH~ coupling constants are affected by σ*~C–H~ antibonding occupancy together with bond angle effects. For cyclohexane and oxygen‐containing compounds, the influence on the geminal coupling for H~ax~‐C~2~‐H~eq~ and for X~1~‐C~2~‐X~3~ (X = O and C), bond angles are more pronounced than for the sulfur derivatives.
