The hitherto elusive mono-O-protonated deltic acid C3O3H3+ was prepared by protolysis of di-tert-butoxy deltate in FSO3H-SO2ClF and in FSO3H:SbF5 (Magic Acid; 1:1 molar solution) in SO2ClF as solvent at -78°C and was characterized by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. The structure and NMR chemical shifts were also calculated by the ab initio/IGLO method. No NMR evidence was found for persistent di-O-protonated deltic acid under these conditions, although a limited equilibrium with the mono-O-protonated species can be involved. Di-, tri-, and tetra-O-protonated deltic acids were also studied by ab initio/IGLO method.Key words: protonated deltic acid, aromaticity, superacids, NMR spectroscopy, ab initio and IGLO calculations.
