Abstract

Dynamic NMR study showed that 9,10-dimethyl-9-vinylphenanthrenium ion, generated under the conditions ensuring its “long life,” undergoes very fast (ΔG = 24.4 kJ/mol at −103°C) degenerate 1,2-shift of the vinyl group. According to the DFT quantum-chemical calculations, the process is one-step, and the low energy of formation of the activated complex is determined by effective participation of π electrons of the vinyl group in delocalization of the positive charge; no such delocalization is intrinsic to the initial ion.
