The goal of this puzzle is to conceptualize a fragment(s) from the given information.
In the following example, a set of protonated sp3 carbons were extracted from an HSQC experiment (not shown). The green arrows represent the 2-3JCH coupling responses extracted from an HMBC experiment. Based on these restrictions, what fragment(s) supports the data?
Note there is an open valence off one of the carbon atoms.
