iiiore, the cleuteratcd iiiialog (VI) shows reiiiurkablc simplicity. These results, suiiiiiiarizecl ill Fig. 2 , suggest rather extensive iiiteractioiis between a specific pair of protons separated by four single bonds, and smaller interactions between several pairs of adjacent protons. The long-range interaction may be rationalized by assuming fairly extensive overlap between the small lobes of the orbitals directed 180' away from the directions of the ezdo C j and CCI to proton botids (and consequently pointed tonwrtl tach other). This cxplmation appears rtasoiiublt
