Teaching an old carbocation new tricks: Intermolecular C-H insertion reactions of vinyl cations

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report synthetic and mechanistic studies of vinyl carbocations generated through silylium-weakly coordinating anion catalysis and find that these reactive intermediates undergo mild intermolecular carbon-carbon bond-forming reactions, including carbon-hydrogen insertion into unactivated sp3 C-H bonds and reductive Friedel-Crafts reactions with arenes.

The Preparation and Chemistry of Dicationically Active Polymers of Tetrahydrofuran

TL;DR: The anhydrides of the very strong acids, CF 3 SO 3 H and FSO 3 H, polymerize tetrahydrofuran (THF) to give a living polyether having cationic activity at each chain end.
