- The DFT calculation proves hydride transfer from aromatic C â H bond to electrophile.
- Reaction of 1,3,5-Ad3C6Ð2 (Ad = adamantyl) with CBr3+ occurs via aryl cation formation.
- The calculations show that benzene reacts with CBr3+ to form the Ï-complex C6H6+CBr3.
The DFT B3LYP/6-31G* calculations were carried out for the reactions of C6H6 and Ad3C6H3 (Ad = 1,3,5-adamantyl) with superelectrophile CBr3+ as a model of superelectrophilic catalyst CBr3+ Al2Br7â. The reaction of C6H6 with CBr3+ proceeds via the classical scheme of electrophilic reactions of aromatic C â H bond to form initially the barrier-free Ï-complex C6H6CBr3+. This mechanism was confirmed by the aug-cc-pVDZ basis set calculations. The reaction of Ad3C6H3 with CBr3+ occurs via a quite novel mechanism involving aryl cation formation followed by hydride abstraction of the Ar+ from the 2-Ad group and the rearrangement of the 2-Ad+ cation into the 4-phenyl-4-protoadamantyl cation. The hydride transfer from both arenes was shown to be more favorable than H radical transfer by more than 40 and 55 kcal molâ1 in the case of C6H6 and Ad3C6H3, respectively.
DFT mechanistic study of reactions of C6H6 and 1,3,5- Ad3C6H3 with CB3 + as a model of superelectrophilic catalyst. The first example of hydride transfer from aromatic CH bond to electrophile followed by hydride abstraction of the aryl cation from organic group.52
