## Abstract Neutral hydroxymethylene HCOH is an important intermediate in several chemical reactions; however, it is difficult to observe due to its high reactivity. In this work, neutral hydroxymethylene and formaldehyde were generated by charge exchange neutralization of their respective ionic co

✦ Synopsis
The efficiency of the neutralization step in neutralization-reionization mass spectrometry was examined in detail.
Collisionat charge exchange between a large number of common organic and inorganic cations and He, N, , H, , SF,, CH, , Xe, 0, , cyclo-C,H, and NO revealed that the energy defect for the charge-exchange reaction and the vertical Franck-Condon overlaps of the projectile ion and its neutral counterpart and those of the target species determine the efficiency.
