N+ + C, reactive scattering has been studied over the collision energy range from 1 to 80 eV. Charge transfer, producing Ca+ is the dominant low-energy channel. At high collision energies a significant fraction of the charge-transfer products also fragment producing C*2n+ (n = 1-8). Chemical reactivity of Ca with N+ is low compared to that observed for B+, C+, and O+ and shows evidence of a barrier for N addition. The only product ion channels which are unambiguously driven by C-N bond formation are CS9N+ and CSg+. As the collision energy is increased, the Cs9N+ product ion decomposes by CN loss. This is in contrast to the analogous Cs90+ species which decays largely by C2 loss. Chemical bond formation is also implicated in the CWh+ Yfragmentation" channels, since their appearance potentials are lower than expected for simple dissociative charge transfer.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
