Both orthogonal linear and orthogonal bent structures have been obtained. In the latter case the push-pull character could be quantified by the quotient method. The.sup.13C chemical shift of the central allene carbon atom C-2 and chemical shift differences [DELTA][delta](C-1, C-2) and [DELTA][delta](C-2, C-3) of allene carbon atoms proved to be a quantitative alternative. TSNMRS of ring-closed push-pull allenes have been computed in addition and were employed to identify polar, carbene-like and carbone-like canonical structures of these molecules.
