The structural elucidation of chiral molecules with more than one stereocenter is usually a tricky problem. In this paper, efficient 1H NMR spectroscopic approaches for assigning the erythro and threo configurations of 1-oxygenated 1,2-diarylpropan-3-ols were developed. By analysis of the chemical shift differences of diastereotopic methylene H2-3 (Δδ3) in CDCl3 or the chemical shift differences of H-1 and H-2 (Δδ1,2) in methanol-d4, deuterated dimethyl sulfoxide, and acetone-d6, the configurations of 1-oxygenated 1,2-diarylpropan-3-ols can be rapidly and conveniently determined.
