Abstract

Long range chiral shielding is found to be proportional to the product of spectroscopic parameters which characterize the site chirality of the sensor nucleus and the rotary strengths of the dissymmetric perturbing group. It falls away as the inverse sixth power of the distance between the nucleus and the perturbing group. Such shielding is extremely small but is responsible for the proton non-equivalence which survives free rotation about the carboncarbon bond in rigid-rotor ethanes of the type CH2U-CXYZ.
