摘要
The dissociation rates of internal-energy-selected styrene and cyclo-octatetraene ions were measured by photoion-photoelectron coincidence with fragment ion time-of-flight analysis. In the energy range 1.5-2.1 eV above the dissociation threshold to form C6H6+ and C2H2, the two C8H8+ isomers have identical rates. This indicates that the ions rearrange to a common precursor prior to fragmentation. On the basis of thermochemistry and calculated rates using the RRKM theory, it is evident that cyclo-octatetraene rearranges to styrene, and that styrene is very close to the most stable ion structure for the C8H8+ isomers. © 1979.
