Abstract
The symmetrically H-bridged structure of the cyclooctyl cation is confirmed definitively by the characteristic IR vibration at 1845 cm–1 and by the agreement of the IGLO chemical shifts calculated with MP2/6-31G* geometry of the chair–boat (CS) conformation with the experimental NMR values.Keywords
