NAMFIS ( N MR A nalysis of M olecular F lexibility I n S olution) was applied to 1‐[2‐(benzyloxy)phenyl]ethanone using quantitative 1 H‐ 1 H NOE distances and 3 J proton‐carbon coupling constant (CC) restraints for averaged methylene proton 3 J HCOC and 3 J HCCC pathways H 2 ‐ 3 J ‐X imposed by density functional theory‐generated Karplus relationships. Comparison of the NOE‐only versus the NOE + CC conformational selections illustrates that the experimentally measured average 3 J coupling constants of methylene protons can be used for solution conformational analysis, potentially valuable in the study of small‐molecule drugs and natural products which lack the typically studied H 1 ‐ 3 J ‐X Karplus relationships.
