Abstract

A number of 1- and 3-hydroxy and 1-amino substituted acyclic pentadienyl cations have been characterised by NMR spectroscopy in situ at low temperature. Some of the 3-hydroxy cations undergo cyclisation to give 1-hydroxycyclopentenyl cations which on deprotonation give substituted cyclopentenones.
