Abstract:
The first two stages of the chemical interaction of a benzyl cation with a weak base, benzene, have been established. A key point in the reactivity of this cation is its ability to act as a strong protonating agent, turning itself to highly reactive carbene molecule, which then interacts with the available initial carbocation. The second step is mostly responsible for the high reactivity of the unsaturated carbocation. Further studies will show whether this mechanism is typical for saturated alkane and allyl-type carbocations.
