Abstract
The estrogen receptor ligand meso‐hexestrol has been synthesized with ^13^C enrichment (98 at.%) at every position. ^13^C NMR spectra of the intermediates were obtained and ^13^C−^13^C coupling patterns analyzed. The complex ^13^C NMR spectrum of [^13^C~18~]‐meso‐hexestrol was simplified through the use of selective ^13^C decoupling. Several ^13^C−^13^C coupling constants were estimated from the decoupled spectra and refined via iterative simulation. Some additional coupling constants were measured in selective one‐dimensional ^13^C COSY spectra. Coupling constants are reported to an accuracy of ±0.4–1 Hz. This study demonstrates the feasibility of determining ^13^C−^13^C coupling constants in highly ^13^C−substituted compounds; such compounds are expected to be used with increased frequency in studying receptor‐ligand interactions by polarization transfer methods.

A new 13C N M R method based on solvent effects allows the identification of carbon atoms a to a carbonyl group. With a simple change in solvent from CDCl, to CDC1,-dioxane (1:4), the -C absorption for all carbons except those a to the carbonyl group in the compounds under study were displaced to lo
13C NMR spectra of para-substituted methoxybenzenes and phenols were recorded in the solid state to gain an insight into the manner and origin of substantial peak splittings in the ortho (up to 9.2 ppm) and mefa (up to 2.5 ppm) carbon signals. It was difficult to account for these peak splittings on
