Shoolery's rule, which is named after James Nelson Shoolery, is a good approximation of the chemical shift δ of methylene groups in proton nuclear magnetic resonance. We can calculate shift of the CH2 protons in a A–CH2–B structure using the formula
:
where 0.23 ppm is the chemical shift of methane and the empirical adjustments {{var|S}} are based on the identities of the A and B groups:

Shoolery's rule is a particular instance of a general class of rules of the form
