Abstract
It has long been recognized that saturated structures with electron-deficient cationic centers are highly reactive species, undergoing both rapid rearrangements and rapid reactions with external nucleophiles.1,2 Such an electron-deficient cationic center will undertake to reduce its electron deficiency by internal electron shifts, delocalizing the charge throughout the carbon structure, or by interacting with the solvent or other nucleophiles in its vicinity.
