Resonance trityl cation stabilization

One of the most stable carbocation structures is the employing all three rings. Trityl chloride ionizes read-triphenylmethyl cation (trityl cation). In this struc- ily, and can capture an available nucleophile, ture, the positive charge is stabilized by resonance... [Pg.194]

The allyl cation (9) is the simplest member of the class of resonance-stabilized cations that includes the alkyl-substituted cyclopentenyl cations. But one could also say that the carbenium ion (CH3) is the simplest member of a class of cations that includes the trityl cation. In each case, 10 or so orders of magnitude of acidity separate the primitive member from its more elaborate derivatives. [Pg.143]

In a study involving the superacid-catalyzed reaction of amino-alcohols, a chiral, dicationic electrophile was observed by low temperature 13C NMR.31 Ionization of benzylic alcohols in superacids can generate stable carbocations, such as the trityl cation. Because of the resonance stabilization of the carbocationic centers, they are fairly weak electrophiles, incapable of reacting with benzene (eq 31). However, it was shown that adjacent ammonium groups can increase the electrophilic reactivities of the diphenylethyl cations (eq 32). [Pg.37]

Allyl halides heterolyze just as easily as benzyl halides because they also produce a resonance-stabilized carbenium ion. Even faster heterolyses are possible when the charge of the resulting carbenium ion can be delocalized by more than one unsaturated substituent and can thereby be stabilized especially well. This explains the remarkably high SN1 reactivities of the benzhydryl halides (via the benzhydryl cation) and especially of the triphenylmethyl halides (via the trityl cation) ... [Pg.77]

Why then are trityl cations still more stable than benzylic cations An aryl residue that is rotated out of the nodal plane of the 2py AO of the benzylic cation center by an angle % provides resonance stabilization that is decreased by cos2 -fold. Three aryl residues in a trityl cation can thus provide up to 3 x cos2(30°) = 2.25 times more resonance stabilization than one... [Pg.81]

Finally, two or even three amino or dimethylamino groups in the para position stabilize trityl cations so efficiently because of their pronounced electron-donating resonance effect that the associated non-ionized neutral compounds are no longer able to exist at all but heterolyze quantitatively to salts. These salts are the well-known tri-phenylmethane dyes. [Pg.68]

The generally observed identity of the r value for solvolysis reactivity and gas-phase stability AAG(c+> of the corresponding carbocation leads to an important prediction concerning the solvolysis transition state. In a typical (limiting) two-step SnI mechanism with a single dominant transition state, the r values of transition states for the various nucleophile-cation reactions should be essentially controlled by the intrinsic resonance demand of the intermediate cation the substituent effect should be described by a single scale of substituent constants (a) with an r value characteristic of this cation. In a recent laser flash-photolysis study (Das, 1993) on the recombination of stable trityl and benzhydryl cations with nucleophiles and solvents, McClelland et al. (1986, 1989) have treated the substituent effects on solvent-recombination processes by (2). [Pg.366]

Electron-withdrawing substituents in anionic polymerizations enhance electron density at the double bonds or stabilize the carbanions by resonance. Anionic copolymerizations in many respects behave similarly to the cationic ones. For some comonomer pairs steric effects give rise to a tendency to altemate. The reactivities of the monomers in copolymerizations and the compositions of the resultant copolymers are subject to solvent polarity and to the effects of the counterions. The two, just as in cationic polymerizations, cannot be considered independently from each other. This, again, is due to the tightness of the ion pairs and to the amount of solvation. Furthermore, only monomers that possess similar polarity can be copolymerized by an anionic mechanism. Thus, for instance, styrene derivatives copolymerize with each other. Styrene, however, is unable to add to a methyl methacrylate anion, though it copolymerizes with butadiene and isoprene. In copolymerizations initiated by w-butyllithium in toluene and in tetrahydrofuran at-78 °C, the following order of reactivity with methyl methacrylate anions was observed. In toluene the order is diphenylmethyl methacrylate > benzyl methacrylate > methyl methacrylate > ethyl methacrylate > a-methylbenzyl methacrylate > isopropyl methacrylate > t-butyl methacrylate > trityl methacrylate > a,a -dimethyl-benzyl methacrylate. In tetrahydrofuran the order changes to trityl methacrylate > benzyl methacrylate > methyl methacrylate > diphenylmethyl methacrylate > ethyl methacrylate > a-methylbenzyl methacrylate > isopropyl methacrylate > a,a -dimethylbenzyl methacrylate > t-butyl methacrylate. [Pg.140]

Substituents that can stabilize a carbocation by resonance can increase the rate constants for Sj-jl reactions dramatically. For example, benzyl (2), benz-hydryl (3), and trityl (4) cations (Figure 8.4) are stabilized by the aromatic rings, with a resulting dramatic increase in the reactivity of the corresponding chlorides in solvolysis reactions (Table 8.2). ... [Pg.475]
