โฆ Synopsis
The geometries and vibrational frequencies of MgO +, Mg2 O+, and Mg3 O+ were calculated using high level ab initio and density functional theories. Mg20 + (D~h, 2E~ ) is linear while the planar T-shaped (C2v, 2B2) and Y-shaped (C2v, 2Aj ) Mg30 + structures are essentially degenerate. MgO รท, Mg20 + and Mg30 + have dissociation energies of: MgO รท, 52.2 kcal/mol (into O + Mg + ); Mg20 +, 93.4 kcal/mol (MgO + Mg รท ) ; and Mg30 รท, 46.8 kcal/mol (Mg20 รท + Mg). Our results agree well with the relative intensities of these cations in the time-of-flight mass spectra reported in a recent experimental study.

By means of a geometry optimization at the MP2/6-3 lG(d) level, the CH302 radicals have been found to exist in five isomeric forms. In order of decreasing stabilities, they are: HO-CH-OH ( ) > 0-CH,-OH (2) > CH&-0 (3) > CH2-O-OH (4) > CHI OH-O (5). On the other hand, there are six CHpO$ isomers: HO-
