Theoretical decomposition of "through space" spin-spin coupling constants (SSCCs) in organofluorine compounds signal that intramolecular hydrogen bonds (H-bonds) are not the primary mechanism of transmission for SSCCs. Increasing solvent polarity may disrupt H-bonds, but not necessarily the JFH SSCC. Substituent effects may drastically alter the SSCC transmission pathway. Accurate SSCC analysis requires benchmarking theoretical calculations to support experimental data interpretation.
