The equilibria Bn−1H+ + B = BnH+ for B = N2, CO, and O2 were measured with a pulsed electron beam high ion source pressure mass spectrometer. Equilibria up to n = 7 could be observed. van't Hoff plots of the equilibrium constants lead to ΔGn−1,n0, ΔHn−1,n0, and ΔSn−1,n0. While the proton affinities increase in the order O2 < N2 < CO, the stabilities of the B2H+ towards dissociation to BH+ + B increase in the reverse order, i.e. CO < N2 < O2. The stabilities towards dissociation of B for BnH+ where n > 2 are much lower for all three compounds; however for N2 and CO the stability decreases only very slowly from n = 3 to n = 6, then there is a large fall off for n = 7. The (O2)nH+ clusters show large decrease of stabilities as n increases. The BnH+ (for n > 3) of CO are more stable than those of N2 or O2. The above experimental results can be partially explained with the help of results from molecular orbital STO-3G calculations for B, BH+, and B2H+ and general considerations. BH+ and B2H+ for CO and N2 are found to be linear while those for O2 are bent. The most stable O2H+ is a triplet, while (O2)2H+ is a quintuplet.

The temperature dependence of the equilibria [Formula: see text] was measured for n = 1 to 5 in a pulsed electron beam mass spectrometer with a high pressure ion source. The ΔHn+1,n values obtained were (2,1) 15.4, (3,2) 9.1, (4,3) 8.4, (5,4) 6.7 kcal/mol. Possible structures of the clustered ions are proposed.Addition of water vapor leads to mixed cluster ions such as H+(H2S)x(H2O)y, with x + y from 1 to 6, observed as the ion source temperature was decreased to −100 °C. The temperature dependence of the equilibria for the exchange reactions [Formula: see text]and the association reaction [Formula: see text]were also measured. For all ions measured, the hydration process is energetically more favorable than the solvation by H2S.

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 equilibria [2]: [Formula: see text] for R = CH3, C2H5, and C6H5 were studied in a pulsed electron beam high ion source pressure mass spectrometer. van't Hoff plots led to ΔH2 values: (CH3), 24.6; (C2H5), 22.7; (C6H5), 21.9 kcal/mol. ΔHf(RC(OH)2+) were obtained from gas phase basicity ladders combined with the new ΔHf(t-butyl+) = 163 kcal/mol (Beauchamp). The ΔHf(RC(OH)2+) were: (CH3), 71.3; (C2H5), 63.6; (C6H5), 95.5 kcal/mol. Combination of ΔH2 with ΔHf(RC(OH)2+) leads to ΔHf(RCO+): (CH3), 153.7; (C2H5), 144; (C6H5), 174.6 kcal/mol. These results are in agreement with selected data from appearance potentials. The energies and structures of the participants in reaction [2] were calculated by MINDO/3 and STO-3G. MINDO/3 gave good agreement with ΔH2. The establishment of the equilibria [2] was unusually slow. A study of the kinetics revealed that k2f is approximately third order, unusually small, and has an unusually large negative temperature coefficient. Furthermore, reaction [2] was found to be catalyzed by RCOOH. An explanation of these observations is given by assuming that the proton shift RCO(OH2)+ → RC(OH)2+ has a large activation energy barrier in the gas phase. This barrier is removed by formation of a hydrogen bonded complex with RCOOH.

The in situ electron microscope technique has been shown to be a powerful method for investigating the nucleation and growth of thin films formed by vacuum vapor deposition. The nucleation and early stages of growth of metal deposits formed by ion beam sputter-deposition are now being studied by the in situ technique.A duoplasmatron ion source and lens assembly has been attached to one side of the universal chamber of an RCA EMU-4 microscope and a sputtering target inserted into the chamber from the opposite side. The material to be deposited, in disc form, is bonded to the end of an electrically isolated copper rod that has provisions for target water cooling. The ion beam is normal to the microscope electron beam and the target is placed adjacent to the electron beam above the specimen hot stage, as shown in Figure 1.

Thinning Rate

The action of water and the electron beam on organic specimens in the electron microscope results in the removal of oxidizable material (primarily hydrogen and carbon) by reactions similar to the water gas reaction .which has the form:The energy required to force the reaction to the right is supplied by the interaction of the electron beam with the specimen.The mass of water striking the specimen is given by:where u = gH2O/cm2 sec, PH2O = partial pressure of water in Torr, & T = absolute temperature of the gas phase. If it is assumed that mass is removed from the specimen by a reaction approximated by (1) and that the specimen is uniformly thinned by the reaction, then the thinning rate in A/ min iswhere x = thickness of the specimen in A, t = time in minutes, & E = efficiency (the fraction of the water striking the specimen which reacts with it).

<div> <div> <div> <p>A key step in gas-phase polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) formation involves the addition of acetylene (or other alkyne) to σ-type aromatic radicals, with successive additions yielding more complex PAHs. A similar process can happen for N- containing aromatics. In cold diffuse environments, such as the interstellar medium, rates of radical addition may be enhanced when the σ-type radical is charged. This paper investigates the gas-phase ion-molecule reactions of acetylene with nine aromatic distonic σ-type radical cations derived from pyridinium (Pyr), anilinium (Anl) and benzonitrilium (Bzn) ions. Three isomers are studied in each case (radical sites at the ortho, meta and para positions). Using a room temperature ion trap, second-order rate coefficients, product branching ratios and reaction efficiencies are reported. </p> </div> </div> </div>
