Publisher's Synopsis
This monograph presents extensive tabulations of NMR chemical shifts, coupling constants, and correlations for rigid bicyclic systems related to bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane ("norbornane") and bicyclo[2.2.2]octane. These systems are useful because they are relatively fixed and allow accurate estimation of internuclear distances and bond angles. Thus, they serve as model systems for the estimation of steric and electronic substituent effects on NMR chemical shifts and coupling constants in non-rigid systems. No similar treatment of NMR data of rigid bicyclic systems has ever appeared before.
