1,3-Diaryl-1,3-dichloro-2-azoniaallene salts 1 react with di-, tri- and tetraalkyl and aryl substituted olefins to form new types of 2-azonia-allene salts 4, a 4-azapentadienyl salt 5e or pyridinium salts 8, respectively. The cycloaddition of olefins to 1,3-dichloro substituted 2-azoniaallene ions proceeds stepwise via carbocations. An X-ray structural analysis of the cycloadduct of 1 with norbornene is presented. With diphenylacetylene, compounds 1 react to give 11H-indeno[1,2-c]isoquinolinium salts 12. The free bases are generated from the hexachloroantimonates by treatment with aqueous sodium hydroxide or sodium hydrogen carbonate.
