    "552356": "Thanks a Lot !!  In Your Example,  we have CH3-CH2-NH2 ..  What would be the notation for Coupling from H attached to Carbon 1 and H attached to Carbon 2 ..  H-&gt;C-&gt;C-&gt;H .. 3JHH ?  and similarly   H-&gt;C-&gt;C-&gt;N-&gt;H .. 4JHH ?  .. if so .. Let say the Carbon at second position branches out to two chains ..? How would the notation be ?",
    "552481": "You're correct in both examples, however typically 4J coupling is very small, also I'm not sure what you mean by branching? When talking about coupling pairs you're typically only concerned with the shortest bond path between them.",
    "554649": "Thanks.. well do we have some branched chain and cyclic molecule like Benzeen"
