Sweet J

From NMR Wiki

Sweet J [1] is a small program that calculates the vicinal coupling constant in the substituted aliphatic hydrocarbons from the dihedral angle. Sweet J can evaluate a generalized Karplus equation or the more complex equation by Haasnoot at al. [2], which also takes the elecronegativity of the substituents into account.

The program was originally written in 1995 for the Macintosh. In 2009 it was ported to Mac OS 10.5.
