Jones et reported a /(C,F) = 5.5 Hz in 9,10,11,12-tetrafluoro-5,6-dihydrobenzo[i>]naphth[2,l-f]oxepine, where the F- -H distance between the coupled F nucleus and the H nucleus bonded to the coupled carbon atom was calculated with the MM3 approach as 2.449 A. They ascribed the origin of such coupling to the n(F)— (C—H) charge transfer interaction. The important influence of electron delocalizations on coupling constants suggests that a charge transfer interaction between two proximate moieties favours a transmission. For instance, V(N,HMe) = 0.13 Hz was measured in 2-OMe-pyridine (14), and an n(N) — (CMe Ht) interaction of 0.95 kcalmoU was...
