For our final example of theoretical NMR in catalysis, we again turn to carbenium ion chemistry. Here we study the formation of the isopropyl cation on frozen SbF5, a strong Lewis acid (27). In contrast to the studies presented earlier, with this system we were able to experimentally measure the chemical shift tensor. Because the full tensor is naturally obtained from NMR calculations, a comparison can readily be made. In addition, for the isopropyl cation we also studied the effect the medium (in this case, the charge balancing anion) had on the chemical shift tensor. [Pg.73]

Estimates of the kinetics of methyl loss from energy-selected CztHg" species have been made by calculation.23 The hydride transfer from alkanes to carbenium ions in the gas phase is calculated to involve a species with a symmetric potential well, which is different from the situation in superacid or zeolite media.24 A correlation between the charge on a carbon and the in-plane tensor component of its 13 C chemical shift has been observed for a number of simple cationic and anionic species.25 High-level calculations...
