Abstract

The methoxy cation, CH 3O +, formed by collision-induced charge reversal of methoxy anions with a kinetic energy of 8 keV, has been differentiated from the isomeric CH 2OH + ion by performing low kinetic energy ion-molecule reactions in the radiofrequency-only quadrupole of a reverse-geometry double-focusing quadrupole hybrid mass spectrometer. The methoxy cation reacts with CH 3SH, CH 3 CH CH 2, (CH 3) 2O, and CH 3CH 2Cl by electron transfer, whereas the CH 2OH + ion reacts by proton transfer with these substrates
