Rate coefficients and branching ratios for anionic hydrogen-deuterium exchange reactions between isotopically labeled hydroxide, amide, hydrogen sulfide, and methoxide ions and their corresponding neutral compounds have been measured in the gas phase by using the selected ion flow tube (SIFT) technique.The kinetic data for the methoxide-methanol systems lead to a determination of the relative base strength of CD3O(1-) and CH3O(1-).The reaction efficiencies and branching ratios of hydroxide-water, amide-ammonia, and amide-water systems are discussed in terms of the mechanism by which exchange occours; the multiply labeled systems reveal that more proton transfer occur than one might expect upon initial inspection of the data.The product distributions are discussed in terms of relative ion-molecule complex lifetimes and dissociation of the complex is competition with scrambling.Efficient H/D exchange was also observed to occur between compounds containing second-row elements and the implications of this are discussed.
