Olah found that there are two groups of carbocations, the trivalent ones called carbenium ions, in which the positive carbon atom is surrounded by three atoms, and those in which the positive carbon is surrounded by five atoms, called carbonium ions.

Carbenium ion structures and carbonium ion structures (non-classical ions) were suggested as hypothetical intermediates.

Olah also found that superacids are so strong that they can even bind more hydrogen ions to simple hydrocarbons, forming pentacoordinated carbocations (carbonium ions).
