This paper reports a gas-phase study of ligand effects on the reactivity of the organometallic distonic ion Fe(p-benzyne) Á . New organometallic distonic ions are generated by introducing a benzene ligand onto the metal center of Fe(p-benzyne) Á . We were interested in whether the reactivity of the
