Abstract
Evidence of first-order alkyl-ring proton coupling is reported for the 4-alkylnitrobenzenes. Typical coupling constants of 0.7 Hz and 0.3 Hz were found for α-alkyl coupling with the ortho and meta ring protons, respectively, when the alkyl function was methyl, ethyl, and isopropyl. No β-alkyl coupling with ring protons was observed for the ethyl, isopropyl, or t -butyl groups, suggesting that the magnitude of the coupling constant is vanishingly small.
