Methyl NMR chemical shift-structure correlations in cyclopolymethylphenylsiloxanes

Abstract The methyl 1 H NMR chemical shifts of various isomers of the title compounds are reported, as is the synthesis of several new compounds. A reliable correlation is shown between chemical shift and structure which is useful for structure confirmation. A statistical approach to isomer identification by use of these shift-structure correlations is given which often affords unambiguous identifications.
