The methyl group on the 2nd carbon atom
on the alkyl chain of the molecules extends
out of the plane of the paper and the hydrogen atom extends into the plane of the paper.
Therefore the 2nd carbon can be thought of
as a right or left handed coordinate system

Magnetic Anisotropy: Diamagnetism
Diamagnetism: induction of a magnetic moment in opposition
to an applied magnetic field. LCs are diamagnetic due to the
dispersed electron distribution associated with the electron
structure.
Delocalized charge makes
the major contribution to
diamagnetism.
Ring currents associated with
aromatic units give a large
negative component to c for
directions  to aromatic ring
plane. Dc is usually positive since:
Dc  cll  c  0
cll  c
