Hydride transfer to some initiators of cationic polymerization
TLDR
In this article, the hydride transfer from xanthene to stable carbenium salts with different cation electrophilities is investigated and the reaction is controlled by the absorption of the ions in the visible region of their electronic spectra.Abstract:
The hydride transfer from xanthene to stable carbenium salts with different cation electrophilities: 2,4′,4′'-trichlorotriphenylmethylhexachloroantimonate, triphenylmethylhexafluoroarsenate, triphenylmethylhexachloroantimonate, 4,4′,4′'-trimethyltriphenylmethylhexachloroantimonate and tropylium hexachloroantimonate is investigated. The reaction is controlled by the absorption of the carbenium ions in the visible region of their electronic spectra. The formation of the product of the reaction — triphenylmethane — is detected by gas chromatography and NMR spectroscopy. The rate constants and the reaction order are determined. The acceleration of the hydride transfer on UV-irradiation of the reaction mixture is shown.read more

Towards a Comprehensive Hydride Donor Ability Scale
TL;DR: It was possible to convert the large number of literature data on hydride abstraction by tritylium ions into N and s(N) parameters for the correspondinghydride donors, and construct a reactivity scale for hydrides covering more than 20 orders of magnitude.

Reactions of carbocations with unsaturated hydrocarbons: electrophilic alkylation or hydride abstraction?
TL;DR: A rule of thumb is derived that hydride transfer processes may compete with carbon-carbon bond-forming reactions when carbocations are combined with olefins of pi-nucleophilicity N < 0.

Chain-propagation, chain-transfer, and hydride-abstraction by cyclic carbocations on water surfaces
TL;DR: The direct detection of carbocationic oligomers generated from the exposure of a series of cyclic unsaturated hydrocarbon gases to acidic water microjets through interface-sensitive mass spectrometry is reported, finding that conjugative π-electron delocalization in the carbocation is the most important factor for the interfacial oligomerization processes.

Photoinitiated Cationic Polymerization of p-methylstyrene by Methoxy Trityl Salts
TL;DR: In this paper, photo-initiated cationic polymerization of p-methylstyrene was investigated in dichloromethane at 25°C, using stable, soluble, and nonhygroscopic di, tri and pentamethoxy trityl carbocationic salts, having non-nucleophilic anions such as SbF6 −, AsF6−, PF6 −.
