Dynamics of the elementary protonation reaction in collisions of the acetonitrile cation with acetonitrile was investigated in crossed-beam scattering experiments in the hyperthermal collision energy range 1.17-2.5 eV. The reaction proceeds by three parallel collision mechanisms: direct proton (deuteron) transfer, direct H-atom transfer, and decomposition of an intermediate complex. The relative contributions of the three mechanisms to the formation of the product at T = 2.5 eV are about equal. Analysis of product angular distributions suggests that the geometry of the critical configuration of the decomposing intermediate is prolate, not far from linear.
