Abstract

Abstract The extent of isomerization of acyclic and cyclic gas phase radical cations of composition [C 10 H 12]+ has been investigated by using collisionally activated dissociation spectroscopy. Both electron and charge exchange ionizaiton were employed to form the ions with various internal energies. The [C 10 H 12]+ ions investigated consisted of ionized phenylbutenes, ring-substituted methyl derivatives of allylbenzene and phenylpropene, 1- ...
