✦ Synopsis

Trajectory studies on a model for the isomerisation of CHSNC to CH,CN show that rotational energy suppresses the rate of isomerisation. This is in contrast to the effect of rotation on a dissociation reaction. The effect is due to the generation of a centrifugal barrier along the reaction coordinate which inhibits access to the transition state.

Further arguments are proposed to show that the 'size effect' observed in the competition between acleavages, as well as in the competition between losses of alkyl and alkane from aliphatic amines, can be interpreted as a 'rotational effect'.

The gas-phase, ion molecule reaction between C,O:' and C,O, has been studied by both double-focusing and ion trap mass spectrometry, rationalized by the formation of a dimeric, odd electron cation IC6041+" which decomposes extensively through sequential CO losses giving rise to IC,O,l+. and IC,O,l+'
