H-1 NMR study has shown that long-lived 9-R-9,10-dimethylphenanthren-9-yl cations (R = isopropenyl, trans-1-methylprop-1-en-1-yl) generated in the system HSO3F-SO2ClF-CD2Cl2 at -130 degrees C undergo degenerate rearrangement via 1,2-vinyl shifts (Delta G(not equal) = 37 and 39 kJ/mol, respectively, at -88 degrees C). Analysis of the geometric parameters of the initial structures and transition states calculated by the DFT method indicates that unfavorable steric factors are responsible for the sharp deceleration of 1,2-shifts of the isopropenyl and trans-1-methylprop-1-en-1-yl groups as compared to vinyl and cis-1-methylprop-1-en-1-yl groups, respectively.
