9-(Trifluoromethyl)fluorenyl Cation: A New Doubly Destabilized Carbocation
摘要:
9-(Trifluoromethyl)fluorenyl tosylate (5) undergoes solvolysis to the corresponding carbocation 3, which is destabilized both by the electron-withdrawing CF3 group and by its potentially antiaromatic fluorenyl cation character.
