Dynamics of the HD2O+ formation in the reaction of D2O+ and NH3 was investigated in a crossed-beam scattering experiment. At T = 1·5 eV (c.m.) the product is formed simultaneously by two different collision mechanisms, by a direct H-atom transfer and by the decomposition of an intermediate complex (D2O.NH3)+; the probabilities of the two mechanisms are about equal at this collision energy. The scattering makes it possible to suggest that in the critical configuration the intermediate complex is a prolate, near-linear species D2OH+.NH2.

Dynamics of the elementary protonation reaction in collisions of the acetonitrile cation with acetonitrile was investigated in crossed-beam scattering experiments in the hyperthermal collision energy range 1.17-2.5 eV. The reaction proceeds by three parallel collision mechanisms: direct proton (deuteron) transfer, direct H-atom transfer, and decomposition of an intermediate complex. The relative contributions of the three mechanisms to the formation of the product at T = 2.5 eV are about equal. Analysis of product angular distributions suggests that the geometry of the critical configuration of the decomposing intermediate is prolate, not far from linear.

The time-dependent quantum scattering calculation with Chebyshev wave packet propagation scheme has been carried out based on an accurate electronic potential energy surface of H2O+(X4A″). Due to the influence of the deep potential well, the reaction probability of [Formula: see text] shows resonance structures regardless of the Coriolis-coupling (CC) effect or centrifugal sudden (CS) approximation. In the range of collision energy 0.0–1.0 eV, the integral cross section obtained by the CS approximation calculation is smaller than that by the CC calculation, which indicates that the CC effect plays a significant role in the title reaction.
