The rate constants for the forward and reverse components of gas phase reactions:[Formula: see text]were measured with a pulsed electron beam, time resolved detection high pressure mass spectrometer at 300 °K. O2, Ar, and He at pressures from 1–7 Torr were used as third gas M. The forward reactions were found to be third order and the reverse reactions second order. Establishment of the equilibria could also be observed.

The reactivity of the dimethylchloronium ion with a series of aromatic hydrocarbons has been studied in a high pressure mass spectrometer ion source using the technique of reactant ion monitoring. Benzene is unreactive but all others, from toluene to mesitylene, react by CH3+ transfer to yield σ-bonded complexes. The relative rate of reaction increases with increasing exothermicity in line with current theories of nucleophilic displacement reactions.

The association equilibrium [Formula: see text] has been studied in a high pressure mass spectrometer ion source using tetramethylsilane/methane mixtures. Measurement of the equilibrium constant over a range of temperatures yields ΔH0 = −22.3 ± 0.4 kcal mol−1 and ΔS0 = −35.2 ± 0.9 cal mol−1 K−1. Collision-assisted dissociation experiments suggest that the methyl groups retain their integrity in (CH3)7Si2+. Mixed ions such as (CH3)7SiGe+ and (CH3)7GeSn+ were not observed in mixtures of (CH3)4X and (CH3)4Y(X ≠ Y = Si, Ge, Sn). Instead CH3− transfer equilibrium reactions were observed viz. [Formula: see text] (ΔH0 = −10.2 ± 1.2 kcal mol−1, ΔS0 = −3.7 ± 2.4 cal K−1 mol−1) and [Formula: see text], ΔS0 = −0.9 ± 1.6 cal K−1 mol−1. These are in excellent agreement with some published differences in appearance potentials for (CH3)3X+ from (CH3)4X (X = Si, Ge, Sn).

This paper describes a mass spectrometer designed to study gas-phase chemical kinetics. An ion source has been constructed which incorporates a differentially pumped, electron beam filament chamber, and line-of-sight access from the sampling pinhole to the ionization region. Experiments are described which test the effectiveness of differential pumping in reducing contamination of the sample by pyrolysis products formed from the sample on the hot filament.

The binding energies of H2O to R3Ge+ have been measured using pulsed electron beam, high pressure mass spectrometry. van't Hoff plots have yielded thermodynamic data (ΔH0, ΔS0) for the reactions, [5], [Formula: see text]and [7], [Formula: see text]. [Formula: see text] decreases with increasing size of R (CH3 28.6 ± 0.5 kcal mol−1, C4H9 20.6 ± 1.2 kcal mol−1) while [Formula: see text] shows much less change (34.4 ± 0.9 to 30.3 ± 2.8 cal K−1 mol−1). Comparison with data for (CH3)3M+ (M = Si, Sn) shows that binding energy decreases with increasing size of M.
