The 2-norbornyl cation is a carbocation derived from norbornane, which is a bicyclic hydrocarbon. It is specifically formed by the removal of a hydrogen atom from the carbon in the 2-position of the norbornane structure, leading to a positively charged ion. The structure of norbornane consists of a fused bicyclic system, and the 2-norbornyl cation has a unique stability characteristic due to its bridged structure.
