A vinyl cation is a positively charged molecule a cation where the positive charge is located on a vinyl group ch ch2.
What are vinyl carbocations.
Atoms or groups attached to an allylic carbon are termed allylic substituents.
In this system the urea catalyst mediates the formation of high energy vinyl carbocations that undergo facile c h insertion and friedel crafts reactions.
The x ray structure of b silyl vinyl cation is an experimental example of linear structure.
A vinyl carbocation has a positive charge on the same carbon as the double bond.
A carbocation ˌ k ɑːr b oʊ ˈ k æ t aɪ ə n is an ion with a positively charged carbon atom among the simplest examples are the methenium ch 3 methanium ch 5 and vinyl c 2 h 3 cations.
The hybridization of a vinyl carbocation is sp hybirdized.
Supposedly there are alkyl substituents along vinyl carbocations then the linear structure has support provided from 13c and 1h according to nmr.
We introduce a new paradigm for these privileged scaffolds where the combination of hydrogen bonding motifs and strong bases.
Evidence against a primary vinyl cation intermediate.
Allylic carbocations are able to share their burden of charge with a nearby group through resonance.
Herein we report the 3 5 bistrifluoromethylphenyl urea catalyzed functionalization of unactivated c h bonds.
Vinyl carbocation is unstable.
Although hyperconjugation can be used to explain the relative stabilities of carbocations this explanation is certainly not the only one and is by no means universally accepted.
The vinyl cation is a carbocation with the positive charge on an alkene carbon.

Do not confuse an allylic group with a vinyl group.
These three factors combine to make the aryl carbocation even higher in energy than the vinyl cation.
An allylic carbocation in which an allylic carbon bears the positive charge.
A vinyl cation prefers to be linear but due to geometrical constraints imposed by the aromatic ring the aryl cation must be bent and the empty orbital is forced to be ce sp 2 rather than ce p.
Journal of physical organic chemistry 2002 15 8 550 555.
This is very very unstable and ranks under a methyl carbocation in stability.
It is a general principle in chemistry that the more a charge is dispersed the more stable is the species.
Carbon with two other atoms attached prefers sp hybridization and a linear geometry.
The vinyl cations are less stable due to the difference in hybridization of the carbon bearing.
An allylic carbon is an sp3 carbon that is adjacent to a vinylic carbon.
This example actually emitted the 29si nmr signal.
Nucleophilic vinylic substitution and vinyl cation intermediates in the reactions of vinyl iodonium salts.
