Abstract
An experimental study of protonated benzene in the gas phase in report ed, stimulated by the recent suggestion of a face centered pi-complex structure as the most stable form of protonated benzene. C6HxD(7-x)(+) ions have been formed either by protonation of C6D6 by H3O+ and ensui ng H/D exchange reactions with H2O or by the mirror isotope reaction o f C6D6 With D3O+/D2O. Their assay by two sampling methods, H+/D+ trans fer to strong bases and collisionally activated dissociation, was foun d consistent with a sigma-complex species. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science B .V.
