Abstract

The first unambiguous observation of a “bisected” primary cyclopropylcarbinyl cation is reported. This cation was formed by ring contraction of a C 8 tricyclic framework. Although totally unexpected from a bond energy-steric strain standpoint, this observation underlines the large resonance stability associated uith “bisected” cyclopropylcarbinyl cations.
