It is shown that β-, γ-, and δ-substituent effects on 13C chemical shifts may be better understood by assuming that the upfield shifts caused by gauche γ-substituents are not due to non-bonded interactions introduced with the γ-group, but that they are due to the removal of the hydrogen on the β-substituent.
