Abstract

^13^C substituent shifts in para‐substituted phenyl and 2‐phenylethenyl carbenium ions have been studied within the general model of para‐disubstituted benzenes XC~6~H~4~Y. Large variations are observed for the ipso shifts induced by the Y substituents (Y = NO~2~. … OCH~3~) depending upon the electron demand at the remote carbenium centre. A good representation of these substituent‐substituent interactions is obtained by a treatment derived from ‘proportionality relationships’, where the deviations from strict additivity are factorized into two terms characterizing, respectively, the influence of the fixed X group on the ring and the susceptibility of the incoming Y substituent. Continuity of the ipso shift variations in an extended range is demonstrated, without break‐off between neutral polarized systems or ions as the electronic influence of the fixed X group increases.
