Abstract
The non-classical pyramidal cation(4) provides a rational explanation of all the phenomena observed on mass-spectrometic degradation of the cyclopentyl cation (1). On generation from (2a), (2b), (3a), or (3b) (• = 13C), (1) always gives 13C2H4, 13C12CH4, 12C2H4 in the ratio of 10:60:30, i.e. all the C atoms must have become statistically equivalent prior to elimination of ethylene from (1). MINDO/3 calculations show degradation to proceed via the cations (4) and (5).
