Abstract

Isotope exchange processes of the type (MH'+ C3D6-MD'+ C3HD5) or (MD'+ C3H6-MH'+ C3H5D)(where C3 (H, D) 6 is propylene or cyclopropane) have been studied in an ICR spectrometer. It is shown that, for both reactant molecules, the efficiency of the exchange reaction can be correlated with the exothermicity of the formation of the complex [M. C3 (H, D),+] from separated M (H, D)+ and C3 (H, D) 6 reactants. In the case of propylene, all of ...
