Abstract

The reaction of CD + 3 with C 2H 6 has been reinvestigated by the Fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance technique. It proceeds, in addition to the previously observed “hydride transfer” pathway resulting in the C 2H + 5 ion, by at least two other channels. “Methylene transfer” results in the isotopic C 2H 2D + 3 ion, and “eliminative condensation” accompanied by molecular hydrogen ejection results in several C 3 ionic products. The reactions are investigated as a function of the collision energy, and their possible mechanisms are discussed.
