Calculations of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) isotopic shifts often rest on the unverified assumption that the \'vibration hole\', that is, the change of the vibration motif upon an isotopic substitution, is strongly localized around the substitution site. Using our recently developed difference-dedicated (DD) second-order vibrational perturbation theory (VPT2) method, we test this assumption for a variety of molecules. The vibration hole turns out to be well localized in many cases but not in the interesting case where the H/D substitution site is involved in an intra-molecular hydrogen bond. For a series of salicylaldehyde derivatives recently studied by Hansen and co-workers (Molecules 2019, 24, 4533), the vibrational hole was found to stretch over the whole hydrogen-bond moiety, including the bonds to the neighbouring C atoms, and to be sensitive to substituent effects. We discuss consequences of this finding for the accurate calculation of NMR isotopic shifts and point out directions for the further improvement of our DD-VPT2 method.
