Abstract
The optimized molecular geometries and relative stabilities of isomers of the C2H4N+ cations have been determined by ab initio SCF calculations using the 3-21G and 6-31G** basis sets. The N-protonated CH3CN species (CH3–CNH+) is the most stable among the isomers considered, and this species is found to be the reaction product of the association reaction, CH3++ HCN, determined by mass spectrometry. The protonation of the neutral C2H3N isomers and the isomerization and dissociation of the C2H4N+ cationic isomers are discussed.
