Abstract

A fluorenyl cation was reported to be antiaromatic, since its solvolysis was faster than triphenylmethyl cation. However recently the cation was suggested to be a triplet cation or a simple conjugated carbocation on the base of results by flash photolysis, solvolysis, and theoretical calculations. Therefore we now report investigation of benzofluorenyl cations by NMR and DFT calculations.
