Abstract: An equation: δcal(17O)=337.3+Δomp for calculating 17O chemical shifts of carbonyl groups in substituted methyl benzoates was provided. Twenty two substituent parameters are obtained with leastsquare linear regression. Experimentally measured 17O chemical shifts from fifty two substituted methyl benzoates were used as the test set to examine the accuracy of the calculated results. The confidence limit was found to be 99.5 % and calculating errors Δδ for all compounds were less than 5.0.

Key words: 17O-NMR, chemical shift, substituent effects, methyl benzoate, carbonyl
