The effects of protonation and hydrogen bonding in linear Schiff bases obtained from n ‐butylamine with butyraldehyde, crotonaldehyde, sorbaldehyde and all‐ trans ‐retinal were studied by means of 15 N and 13 C NMR. The protonation‐induced chemical shifts (Δδ) are an order of magnitude larger for 15 N than for 13 C. For 15 N, this effect was found to increase with the extent of conjugation, culminating in the retinylideneimine (Δδ = −146 ppm), which constitutes a model for the study of the structure of the Schiff base linkage in visual pigments and related systems. Theoretical calculations of protonation‐induced Δδ values based on MINDO/ 3 are in agreement with experimental results.
