Ion-molecule reactions of CF3+ with C2H2, C2H4, and C3H6 have been studied at near-thermal energy (0.05 eV) by using an ion beam apparatus.Initial product ion distributions and reaction rate constants were determined and compared with previous beam and selected ion flow tube (SIFT) data.The CF3+/C2H2 reaction produces exclusively the electrophilic adduct C3H2F3+ ion.For C2H4 and C3H6, hydride abstraction and electrophilic addition followed by HF elimination or fluoride transfer occur in parallel.The branching ratios of the former and latter reactions are 0.29 +/- 0.04:0.71 +/- 0.06 for the CF3+/C2H4 reaction and 0.07 +/- 0.02:0.93 +/- 0.07 for the CF3+/C3H6 reaction.On the basis of theoretical calculations of potential energies for the CF3+/C2H2 and CF3+/C2H4 systems, the lack of the HF elmination channel in the CF3+/C2H2 reaction, whereas the lack of the initial adduct ion in the CF3+/C2H4 reaction, is attributed to the different stability of the intermediate adduct ions for HF elimination.The reaction rate constants were 0.45 x 1E-9, 1.3 x 1E-9, and 1.6 x 1E-9 cm3 s-1 for C2H2, C2H4, and C3H6, respectively, which correspond to 46percent, 120percent, and 130percent of calculated rate constants from Langevin theory or a parametrized trajectory model.Although there are significant discrepancies in the product ion distributions between the present beam experiment and the previous beam data, the product ion distributions and the reaction rate constants obtained here are in reasonable agreement with the previous SIFT data.

The initial steps in the BF2(+)-induced polymerization of the monomers of ethylene, propylene, cis-2-butene, isobutene, and styrene have been observed in the gas phase at room temperature using the Selected-Ion Flow Tube (SIFT) technique.Rate constants and product distributions have been determined for the initiation of the polymerization in each case.All five initiation reactions were found to be rapid (k >/= 5.0*10-10 cm3 molecule-1 s-1).The primary product ions that propagate polymerization have been identified and sequential addition reactions have been followed in all five systems.For ethylene the energetics of the initial steps have been followed using ab initio molecular orbital theory.Reaction of BF2+ with the vapours of water and benzene have also been characterized.

The gas-phase reactions of fluoride, amide, hydroxide, and methoxide ions with a variety of substituted silanes have been studied by the flowing afterglow technique.Fluoride reacts readily with trimethylsilyl derivatives to displace benzyl, alkenyl, and alkynyl anions.These reactions have also been used to generate specific structural isomers (CH3CC- and CH2C=C=CH-).Anions more basic than phenide ion cannot be produced in this manner, and their parent trimethylsilanes interact with fluoride by more complex mechanisms.Amide, hydroxide, and methoxide ions react with substituted trimethylsilanes by both displacement and proton abstraction whenever an acidic hydrogen is present; in the absence of displaceable groups and acidic hydrogen, the reactions of amide, hydroxide, and methoxide parallel those of fluoride ion.
