The carbocations 1, 5-and1, 6-dimethylcyclododecyl are postulated to have a µ-hydrido-bridged structure. This assignment is based on the observation of a single very high-field hydrogen in the NMR, anomalously low coupling constants involving this hydrogen, and very small isotope perturbation shifts using Saunders’ criterion for equilibrating and resonance structural distinction. Both positionaland conformational isomerization is possible in these bridged ions, but no evidence for cis-trans isomerization was found. The µ-hydrido bridging is best treated as an “open” three-center, two-electron resonance system involving a single potential minimumfor the bridgedhydrogen. The bridging hydrogen is not electrophilic, and the bridged ions cannot be prepared by protonating the central bond of decalins nor can the µ-hydrogen be removed as a proton. Numerous theoretical calculations have been performed and correlated with the experimental data.
