Complexes of ammonium ions RNH3+ (R = CH3, c-C6H11), (CH3)3NH+, and pyridineH+ with polyethers and crown ethers are observed in the gas phase in the abscence of the solvent effects.The dissociation energies, ΔH0D, of the RNH3+ polyether complexes range from 29.4 kcal mol-1 (for RNH3+*CH3OCH2CH2OCH3) to 46 kcal mol-1 (RNH3+*18-crown-6).The large ΔH0D values for complexes of polydentate ligands indicate multiple -NH+...O-hydrogen bonding.Such mutiple bonding can contribute up to 18 kcal mol-1 to the bonding in RNH3+*CH3(OCH2CH2)3OCH3 and 21 kcal mol-1 in RNH3+*18-crown-6.Multiple interactions are also evident in the (CH3)3NH+*polyether complexes where -CH?+...O-hydrogen bonding seems to occur; and consecutive -CH?+...O-bonds contribute approximately 6, 4, and 2 kcal/mol-1 respectively for up to three such bonds.Total ΔH0D values in the (CH3)3NH+*polyether complexes thus range from 26.7 kcal mol-1 in (CH3)3NH+*CH3O(CH2)2OCH3 to 41 kcal mol-1 in (CH3)3NH+*18-crown-6.Multiple interaction effects, possibly including van der Waals dispersion forces, are observed also in pyridineH+*polyether complexes.Large negative entropies in RNH3+*acyclic polyether complexes vs.RNH3+*cyclic crown ethers make the acyclic polyethers less efficient ligands.

The gas-phase ion-molecule reactions occurring in trimethyl phosphite, trimethyl phosphate, triethyl phosphate, and trimethyl phosphorothionate have been investigated by ion cyclotron resonance spectroscopy.Protonated parent ions, tetracoordinated phosphonium ions, and cluster ions are the reaction products observed.The proton affinities of these compounds have been determined to be 222.9, 214.2, 218.7, and 216.6 kcal/mol, respectively (relative to PA(NH3) = 207.0 kcal/mol).Homolytic bond dissociation energies of the protonated species are calculated using adiabatic ionization potentials determined by photoelectron spectroscopy.The trends in these quantities are discussed.A reasonable value for the correlated homolytic bond dissociation energy of trimethyl phosphite indicates that the first ionization potential of this molecule should be assigned to the phosphorus lone pair.The application of chemical ionization mass spectrometry to the analysis of phosphorus esters is briefly discussed.
