## Abstract Predicting ^13^C chemical shifts by GIAO‐DFT calculations appears to be more accurate than frequently expected provided that: (a) the comparison between experimental and theoretical data is performed using the linear regression method, (b) a sufficiently high level of theory [e.g. B3LYP

Abstract
DFT/B3LYP calculations of the ground‐state conformation of eight cyclic and acyclic acetals are presented and compared with experimental data. Results of single‐point GIAO/DFT calculations at five different levels of theory show that isotropic shieldings need to be empirically scaled to achieve agreement with experimental chemical shifts. Statistical evaluation of data indicates that the most accurate prediction of ^13^C chemical shifts is achieved at the MPW1PW91/6–311G** level of theory. An empirical equation describing the relationship between δ values and shielding constants is postulated. This equation has been applied to the non‐chair ground‐state conformation of the six‐membered acetonide and to the conformationally flexible benzodioxonine derivative. The agreement observed between the experimental and predicted chemical shifts shows that calculations at the MPW1PW91/6–311G** level of theory are adequate for addressing questions of conformation.
