Both the stereochemistry (cis/trans-isomers) by steric twist and the push-pull character by both C-13 chemical shift differences (Delta delta(C C)) and the occupation quotient (pi(C C)/pi(C C)) were studied; the latter two parameters can be readily employed to precisely quantify the push-pull effect in alkynes.
