The gas-phase, ion molecule reaction between C3O2+ and C3O2 has been studied by both double-focusing and ion trap mass spectrometry, rationalized by the formation of a dimeric, odd electron cation [C6O4](+.) which decomposes extensively through sequential CO losses giving rise to [C5O3](+.) and [C4O2](+.) ions. The thermodynamics of this process have been investigated by means of ab initio calculation performed on the above species using different basis sets (STO-3G, 3-21G and 6-31G*).

Abstract
The gas-phase, ion molecule reaction between C3O2+ and C3O2 has been studied by both double-focusing and ion trap mass spectrometry, rationalized by the formation of a dimeric, odd electron cation [C6O4](+.) which decomposes extensively through sequential CO losses giving rise to [C5O3](+.) and [C4O2](+.) ions. The thermodynamics of this process have been investigated by means of ab initio calculation performed on the above species using different basis sets (STO-3G, 3-21G and 6-31G*).File in questo prodotto:
