Abstract Epoxidation of ( Z )‐3‐arylidene‐1‐thioflavan‐4‐ones ( 1 ) yielded trans,cis ( 2 ) and trans,trans ( 3 ) isomers. The structure and signal assignments were elucidated by extensive application of one‐ and two‐dimensional 1 H and 13 C NMR spectroscopy. The conformational analysis was achieved by the application of 3 J (C,H) couplings and ab initio MO calculations. Both the preferred ground‐state conformers (envelope‐A conformations) obtained as global minima of the HF ab initio structures and the 13 C chemical shifts calculated by the GIAO method from the global minima structures of the trans,cis and trans,trans isomers are in agreement with the experimentally obtained NMR results.
