The role of hydrogen-bridged radical cations in the dissociation of ionized glycolaldehyde [HOCH2CHO]+•
Abstract
Ab initio molecular orbital theory calculations combined with mass spectrometric experiments show that the dissociation of metastable glycolaldehyde radical cations occurs at the thermochemical threshold and that this process proceeds via a CHO bridged ion [CH2O(H)…H…CO]+•.
