Abstract

Cubane's proton affinity is now understood! Protonated cubane
forms a structure with a protonated C-C bond (see scheme), which
undergoes rearrangement along the most favorable reaction path rapidly
giving 1,8‐dihydropentalene as the final product. The results confirm
the experimentally determined proton affinity of cubane.
