Abstract
A method for computing spin-spin coupling constants (SSCCs) using the reference interaction site model self-consistent field with constrained spatial electron density (RISM-SCF-cSED) is proposed for the first time. Describing solvents using integral equation theory allows us to reflect solvent effects at atomic resolution in SSCCs while accounting for thermal fluctuations at a low computational cost. Applying the method to water, 1,1-difluoroethylene, and 1-methylaminomethylene-2-naphthalenone revealed that the solvent shift was evaluated to a greater extent than in the continuum solvent model. The origin of this phenomenon was analyzed in terms of the physical mechanisms underlying SSCCs.

Abstract
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.

Abstract
One-bond spin-spin coupling constants (SSCCs) between F and C are computed with density functional theory (DFT). Surprisingly, M06L stands out for its striking accuracy, outperforming any other investigated functional, including PBE0, otherwise considered one of the most reliable for couplings involving F. Although the computation of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) parameters involving F is known to be a challenging task, even with a rather small basis set as pcJ-1, M06L provides results with a MAD = 11.7 Hz, whereas the average deviation gets as much as 5 times larger for PBE0 (MAD = 60.0 Hz). In the context of SSCCs on the order of 300 Hz, this is particularly remarkable. We find that the accuracy of M06L/pcJ-1 in predicting 1JFC constants does not stem from a well-suited exchange or correlation part of the functional. Instead, it is believed to arise from a fortuitous cancellation of errors, as revealed by investigating the convergence of the basis set. Our findings also indicate that 1JFC constants are highly dependent on the amount of exact exchange included in the expression of the functional, with large fractions being critically important to achieving satisfactory results. Studying the effects of the geometry on 1JFC, we find that optimizing the geometry at the level of theory used to calculate SSCCs generally improves the quality of the results, although the combination of a M06-2X/aug-cc-pVTZ geometry with M06L/pcJ-1 1JFC constants best reproduces the experimental data for organofluorine compounds (with the exception of fluoroalkenes).

Abstract
The multi-configurational short-range (sr) density functional theory has been extended to the calculation of indirect spin-spin coupling constants (SSCCs) for nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The performance of the new method is compared to Kohn-Sham density functional theory and the ab initio complete active space self-consistent field for a selected set of molecules with good reference values. Two density functionals have been considered, the local density approximation srLDA and srPBE from the GGA class of functionals. All srDFT calculations are of Hartree-Fock-type HF-srDFT or complete active space-type CAS-srDFT. In all cases, the calculated SSCC values are of the same quality for srLDA and srPBE functionals, suggesting that one should use the computationally cost-effective srLDA functionals in applications. For all the calculated SSCCs in organic compounds, the best choice is HF-srDFT; the more expensive CAS-srDFT does not provide better values for these single-reference molecules. Fluorine is a challenge; in particular, the FF, FC, and FO couplings have much higher statistical errors than the rest. For SSCCs involving fluorine and a metal atom CAS-srDFT with singlet, generalized Tamm-Dancoff approximation is needed to get good SSCC values although the reference ground state is not a multi-reference case. For VF6 -1, all other considered models fail blatantly.

Abstract
This review discusses molecular adducts, whose composition allows a symmetric structure. Such adducts are popular model systems, as they are useful for analyzing the effect of structure on the property selected for study since they allow one to reduce the number of parameters. The main objectives of this discussion are to evaluate the influence of the surroundings on the symmetry of these adducts, steric hindrances within the adducts, competition between different noncovalent interactions responsible for stabilizing the adducts, and experimental methods that can be used to study the symmetry at different time scales. This review considers the following central binding units: hydrogen (proton), halogen (anion), metal (cation), water (hydrogen peroxide).

Abstract
The intramolecular CF···HX (X = O or S) H-bond and JFH spin-spin coupling constants (SSCCs) in 2-fluorophenol and 2-fluorothiophenol were investigated experimentally by 1H and 19F NMR and theoretically in the framework of the natural bond orbital analysis. In contrast with recent findings from the literature, the results obtained in this work showed that an intramolecular H-bond is formed in the cis conformers and that it has an electrostatic origin. Such an intramolecular electrostatic H-bond is the interaction that rules the conformational preferences on these compounds. Moreover, the natural J-coupling analysis indicated that the JHF SSCC in 2-fluorophenol has its origin on LP(F)/σOH steric interactions and should be labeled as 4TSJHF. On the other hand, the analogue SSCC for 2-fluorothiophenol has its origin on the intramolecular H-bond LP(F) → σSH* hyperconjugative interaction and should be described as a 1hJFH SSCC.
