The methylene protons in 2,2,4‐trimethylpentane‐1,3‐diol ( 1 ), its 1 ‐isobutyrate ( 2 ) and 3 ‐isobutyrate ( 3 ) monoesters, are magnetically nonequivalent with respect to chemical shift. Under the same experimental conditions, the chemical shift differences are 14·4 Hz, 46·2 Hz and 18·2 Hz for 1 , 2 and 3 , respectively. These nonequivalences were examined as a function of temperature and concentration. The large nonequivalence in 2 is attributed to a highly restricted conformation resulting from intramolecular hydrogen bonding. Less favorable steric interactions result in a substantially smaller contribution of intramolecular hydrogen bonding in 3 , while in 1 intermolecular hydrogen bonding occurs exclusively. Infrared data were obtained in support of these conclusions.
