The ion–molecule reactions occurring in ethylene and in propylene at high pressures in the mass spectrometer ion source have been studied. It has been shown that two of the six secondary ions in ethylene and four of the nine secondary ions studied in propylene are products of more than one ion–molecule reaction. The cross sections for the separate reactions at 10 v/cm field strength are reported.

Reactions with gaseous ketones in the ion source of a mass spectrometer at elevated pressures have been studied. Reaction cross sections and approximate rate constants are reported for reactions leading to ions of mass M + 1, where M is the mass of the parent ion. Proton transfer rather than hydrogen abstraction seems to be the principal mode of reaction in the formation of these secondary ions.

Seven of the major secondary ions in the high-pressure mass spectrum of cyclopropane have been studied. A method has been developed for studying concurrent ion–molecule reactions and it has been shown that four of the secondary ions are the products of more than one reaction. Cross sections for the separate reactions are reported. The appearance potentials of the major primary ions in the mass spectrum of cyclopropane have been measured.

The ion-molecule reactions of CH2F2 in the gas phase were studied using two mass spectrometers, one fitted with a medium-pressure ion source and the other with an ion-trap source. The main reaction was the formation of CH2F+ from CHF2+. The molecular ion and its proton transfer reaction forming CH3F2+ were of lesser importance. The only condensation ion formed was C2H4F3+. Reaction cross sections and rate coefficients for a number of ions at exit energies of 0.2-3.3 eV were measured.

A Bendix time of flight mass spectrometer has been modified to enable the determination of some ion-molecule reaction cross sections in the energy range 1 — 100 eV.In the reactions studiedX+ + D2 → XD++Dwhere X may be Ar, N2 or CO, the results obtained agree with the predictions of the polarization theory in the range below 10 eV despite the fact that no intermediate complex is formed at these energies. Between about 10—50 eV where spectator stripping occurs the cross section follows an approximate E-l dependence. Above these energies the results are consistent with a transition to a region in which knock-on processes predominate and where an impulse approximation treatment would be valid.

Abstract. We present a Chemical Ionisation Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer (CI-QMS) with radio-frequency (RF) discharge ion source through N2/CH3I as source of primary ions. In addition to the expected detection of PAN, peracetic acid and ClNO2 through well-established ion-molecule-reactions with I- and its water cluster, the instrument is also sensitive to SO2, HCl and acetic acid (CH3C(O)OH) through additional ion chemistry unique for our ion source. We present ionisation schemes for detection of SO2, HCl and acetic acid along with illustrative data sets from three different field campaigns underlining the potential of the CI-QMS with an RF discharge ion source as an alternative to 210Po. The additional sensitivity to SO2 and HCl makes the CI-QMS suitable for investigating the role of sulphur and chlorine chemistry in the polluted marine and coastal boundary layer.

Positive ion-molecule reactions in 8F6 were studied in a static drift-tube mass spectrometer using electron impact at 100 eY as the ion source. The ratio of electric field strength to gas number density, E / N, was typically varied from 40-282 Td and pressure ranged from 0�1 to o� 8 Torr. The most important processes were found to be 8Ft + SF6 ---+ 8Ft + 8F6 + F2 and 8Ft + 8F6 ---+ (82Fg)+* ---+ 82Ft + F 2. The interaction potentials for the 8Ft and 8Ft ions in SF6 were also found by using the measured mobility data which were obtained using a pulsed-ion transit-time method. We found that the (12,4, a* = 0�1) core model was adequate to describe the mobility over the range of E / N studied. The zero-field reduced mobilities for 8Ft and 8Ft were determined to be 0�68 and 0�55cm2y-1 s- 1 respectively.
