Hi, I'm looking for some physical constants relating to triphenylmethyl cation ionically bound to a chlorine atom. (Ph)₃C⁺Cl^-

I've looked in multiple locations, but it seems that every reaction and data always refer to the covalently bonded triphenylmethyl chlorine.

I tried looking at some journals the ACS has but I don't have an account and they want me to pay $35 for a 48 hour access, which I really don't want to do. If anyone can reference me to someone or somewhere where I can find this information it would be greatly appreciated.

If you have citations, I can probably find the articles and provide the information you would like.

i think the bond between carbon and chlorine is covalent rather than ionic? Am I right?
If detail information of an artile would be provided, I can help you!

Yeah, I finally found it out. I don't know if my chem teacher thinks she's clever, but the compound I'm looking for doesn't exist in such a fashion. But yes you are correct, the bond is covalent, and can never be ionic. Thanks for the support though I appreciate it.
