Abstract

Abstract: The gas-phase acidities of 15 simple alkanes have been determined in a flowing afterglow-selected ion flow tube (FA-SIFT) by a kinetic method in which alkyltrimethylsilanes are allowed to react with hydroxide ions to produce a mixture of trimethylsiloxide ions by loss of alkane and alkyldimethylsiloxide ions by loss of methane. The reaction is proposed to proceed by addition of hydroxide ion to the silane to form a pentacoordinate siliconate ion ...
