Quinolizinium refers to the heterocyclic cation with the formula C₉H₈N⁺. The cation is isoelectronic and nearly isostructural with naphthalene, the difference being the replacement of one of the two carbons at the fusion positions with N⁺. The parent quinolizine has not been isolated but salts of these aromatic quinolizinium compounds are well known. Several syntheses begin with 2-substituted pyridines and involve N-alkylation and various dehydrogenation reactions.^[1] The quinolizinium core is represented in the berberine family of natural products.^[2] It is formally derived from the elusive quinolizines by hydrde abstraction. According to X-ray crystallography of the hexafluorophosphate salt, which is colorless, C₉H₈N⁺ is planar.^[3]

Reactions

Being a cation, quinolinizium resists electrophilic attack, although it can be brominated. Catalytic hydrogenation gives quinolizidine.^[1]
