ChemInform Abstract

The 1-methylcyclopentyl cation is shown to exist in the twist conformation by NMR isotope shift investigations of the partially deuterated cations (II). The labeled precursors (I) are obtained from the corresponding deuterated cyclopentanones by a two-step sequence involving Grignard reaction with methyl iodide followed by chlorination of the resulting alcohol with SOCl2 or HCl.
