• A substituent-constant approach22 to the estimation of 1H-chemical shifts leads to δ 6.57 ppm for -CH-CH(F) uracil; and δ 6.82 ppm for S-CH-CH(F) uracil, as in (23), and these relate well to literature values for CH2-CH(F) adenine (δ 6.51 ppm; 2 J HF 49.2Hz)23 and the related -C°C CH(F) adenine (δ 7.40 ppm; 2 J HF 51.3Hz).24
