If the 1,3-diols have a ''syn-'' orientation to one another, the acetonide will have a chair conformation and the methyl carbons of the acetonide will have different shifts due to one being axial, the other being equitorial. If the diols are ''anti-'', then the acetonide will exist as a twist boat conformation and the methyl carbons will have similar carbon shifts. | ||

This review article discusses use of 2,3JCH, 3JHH scalar couplings and 13C chemical shifts for assignment of relative stereochemistry of centers (marked in bold) in -CHX-CHY- and -CHX-CH2-CHY- hydrocarbon fragments, where X and Y are polar substituents.
2JCH couplings are useful in fragments CYH-CHX where substituent X is polar (and the coupling between atoms marked in bold is observed).

The article below is the pioneering work showing that 2,3JCH and 3JHH coupling constants can be used to determine relative stereochemistry of two adjacent stereocenters in acyclic hydrocarbons. The analysis is based on the assumption (supported by molecular mechanics calculations) that most acyclic hydrocarbons substituted with -OH, -OCH3, -CH3 and other non-bulky substituents favor gauche or anti conformations within 10o accuracy. Also authors state that this J-based method to determine relative stereochemistry works for the cases where one rotamer is at least 85% populated.
