✦ Synopsis
Isomeric C 5 H 5 N ⅐ϩ and C 6 H 7 N ⅐ϩ radical cations were allowed to interact with various neutral reagents in the quadrupole collision chamber of a six sector magnetic deflection type tandem mass spectrometer. Using CH 3 SSCH 3 , CH 3 OH, or H 2 O, iso-C 3 H 7 I, and tert-C 4 H 9 NC as substrates, specific associative ion-molecule reactions occur whose products were analyzed in a subsequent high energy collision induced dissociation experiment. Differentiation between ionized pyridine and its 1,2-H shift isomer is readily achieved with each of the four substrates as the latter C 5 H 5 N ⅐ϩ ion exhibits a radical-type reactivity characteristic of its distonic character. An unambiguous structure characterization of the C 6 H 7 N ⅐ϩ ions, namely ionized 2-methylpyridine, the N-methylene pyridinium ylide ion, the 2-methylene-1-hydropyridine ion, and the N-methyl-2dehydropyridine radical cation, is realized when all of the above substrates are used in the analysis.

## Abstract The kinetics of the C~2~H~5~ + Cl~2~, __n__‐C~3~H~7~ + Cl~2~, and __n__‐C~4~H~9~ + Cl~2~ reactions has been studied at temperatures between 190 and 360 K using laser photolysis/photoionization mass spectrometry. Decays of radical concentrations have been monitored in time‐resolved measu
Rotational alignment of the product SrBr in the beam-gas reactions Sr + RBr (R= CH3, C2H5, n-C3H7, and i-C3H7 was studied in experiment and theory. The rotational alignment was probed by means of the polarized laser-induced fluorescence (PLIF) of the product. The distributions of the rotational vect
The rate coefficients for the gas-phase reactions of C,H,O;, and n-C3H,0, radicals with NO have been measured over the temperature range of (201 -403) K using chemical ionization mass spectrometric detection of the peroxy radical. The alkyl peroxy radicals were generated by reacting alkyl radicals w
