Ion-molecule reaction chemistry of Fe+ with NO: excited-versus ground-state reactions

Abstract: Ion-molecule reactions of excitedand ground-state Fe+ with NO are reported. The charge-exchange and clustering ion-molecule reactions of Fe+ with Fe(CO)5 are used to study the reaction dynamics of metastable versus ground electronic state Fe+ ions. The ground-state 6D(4s'3d6) Fe+ ions are unreactive with NO. Conversely, the metastable electronic states react with NO to form charge-transfer product ions (NO+) and radiative association adduct ions [Fe+(NO)] and by the collisional relaxation process. The collisio… Show more

“…Interestingly, these monitor reactions revealed that even with our precautions we do have a minor N 2 O impurity, on the order of 1%, a finding that other groups also observed. 36,44 The N 2 O impurity does not affect any of our Fe + or FeO + results appreciably because N 2 O reacts inefficiently with those ions (i.e., ∼3 × 10 −11 and ∼1 × 10 −11 cm 3 s −1 , respectively). 33,35,53 The alternative explanation to impurity is the termolecular mechanism of reaction 3 proposed by the York group.…”

“…This is in contrast to the recent results for Fe + by Bohme et al, 27 although it agrees with earlier results in the literature. 27,35,36 Without catalytic reduction of NO, the middle cycle shown in Figure 1 does not proceed, and thus, the overall stepwise reduction of NO 2 to N 2 shown cannot occur. On the basis of our experimental observations and theoretical limits on the termolecular process being at odds with reported rates, we conclude that the previously reported positive results for Fe + + NO are due to a minor NO 2 impurity.…”

“…The reactivity of NO with Fe + was examined by mass spectrometry, which shows that only excited Fe + reacts with NO. 16 The rate coefficients of the reactions were determined, and the reaction mechanisms were also discussed. 17−21 The kinetics of the association reaction of atomic iron with NO was also studied using laser induced fluorescence in the gas phase.…”
