Abstract
The rate constants for the ion–molecule reactions forming the protonated molecule in CH3CN, H2, CH4, and CH3OCH3, the equivalent reactions in the deuteriated species, and the reactions forming COD+ in CO–CD4 mixtures have been measured at thermal energies and at 10.5 V/cm repeller field strength. For H2, HD, D2 and the reactions in CO–CD4 mixtures the rate constant for the thermal reaction is approximately 0.3–0.5 that of the 10.5 V/cm rate constant. For all other cases the ratio of rate constants is approximately unity as predicted by the ion-induced dipole model. The absolute values of the rate constants in most cases are considerably lower than predicted by theory.Keywords
