Abstract

The CS2O+ ion and CS2O molecule were prepared and structurally characterized by mass spectrometric techniques as isolated species in the gas phase. The theoretical analysis, performed by B3LYP and CCSD(T) computational methods, predicted different CS2O+ isomers, SSCO+, O(CS2)+, SCSO+, SCOS+ and S(COS)+, and structurally related singlet and triplet CS2O. Experiment and theory agree in identifying the obtained CS2O+ ions as a mixture of SCSO+ and SCOS+ isomers. CS2O neutral species, prepared by neutralization-reionization mass spectrometry, were directly characterized as intact, long-lived species with a lifetime tau > or =2 micros.
