Spearman's rank correlation method is suggested as an alternative procedure for the treatment of lanthanide induced shift data. When this method is applied to Sullivan's data [J. Am. Chem. Soc. 98,7162 (1976)], the results are similar to those obtained by the jack-knife and Kendall techniques, which were introduced in a previous article. All three methods are able to distinguish between closely related structures. Among these three non-parametric methods, the Spearman procedure is probably the simplest.In a previous paper,' Hamilton's R-factor ratio test was shown to be inapplicable for determination of molecular structures by lanthanide shift reagents. Instead, two alternative tests were proposed; one was based on a jack-knife test,* the other on the Kendall 7 stati~tic.~ When both tests were applied to Sullivan's lathanide induced shift (LIS) data,4 they yielded similar results and both were able to distinguish between closely related structures.In this note another relatively simple statistical procedure, Spearman's rank correlation m e t h~d ,~ is proposed for the treatment of LIS data. A brief description of the procedure is given in the next section. In the final section the test is again applied to Sullivan's data4 and the results are compared with those obtained by Hamilton's test, the jack-knife test and Kendall's procedure. A summary of the results of treating Sullivan's data with Hamilton's R-factor ratio test is, however, first given.After obtaining the LIS for 4-amino-1,7,7-tri- (1) w k ( 6 k " ) 2 where 6," and 6,' are the observed and calculated LIS for the k-th nucleus, respectively, and wk is the weighting factor. It is obvious that the lower the R-factor the better the agreement between observed and calculated LIS. For the LIS observed for 1, Sullivan found three distinct conformations, called models A, B and C in this note, having minimum R values of 3.47, 3.71 and 4.50%, respectively.

Thus, Sullivan concluded that the use of LIS data failed to distinguish between diastereomers 1 and 2. Since structural differences in 1 and 2 might be somewhat subtle, Sullivan tested whether LIS data could be used to detect more drastic structural changes.

A class of distribution-free tests based on U-statistics has been proposed for testing the null hypothesis of independence against positive quadrant dependence. The tests are based on U-statistics and the Kendall's-tau test belongs to this class.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
