1-Methyl-2-phenyl-3-nitrosoindole and N,N-dimethyl-p-nitrosoaniline react w
ith benzoyl chloride to form salts behaving like iminium and nitrenium ions
respectively. The structure of che ion formed in the case of the nitrosoin
dole was elucidated by X-ray analysis. The charge density distribution of b
oth ions was calculated on the basis of the structure parameters and by AM1
calculations and their reactivity was interpreted on the basis of structur
al parameters and the calculated distribution of their positive charge.
