“…Double hyperconjugation extends the delocalization range even further by placing a σ‐bridge between a donor and an acceptor. In the chemistry of cations, this interaction has been called the δ‐effect and found experimentally to be significant for silicon and tin 115–117. Expansion of these studies to a larger set of cations118,119 showed that, double hyperconjugation with a number of equatorial substituents can provide significant stabilization (R = AlH 2 , GaH 2 , GeH 3 , AsH 2 , SiH 3 , PH 2 , BH 2 , SeH) or destabilization (R = SH, Br, NH 2 , Cl, O, F) to the δ‐cyclohexyl cation with the equatorially oriented empty p‐orbital (Figure 12, equatorial ‘hyperconjomer’, vide infra ).…”
