Ions as Measures of Electron Density Ions are susceptible to spectroscopic detection, but free electrons are not. - When approximate electro-neutrality prevails, the determination of molecular ion abundance can provide a partial picture of the free-electron abundance. - Electron density is thought to determine the rate of cloud collapse, and therefore of star formation. Molecular ion measurements can provide an assay of the degree of ionization and the electron density (and so insight into the rate of star formation). Abundances of detected molecular ions within the cold dense cloud TMC-1 (number densities relative to that of predominant H2). Fionization ≥ Σ fionization Ffree electrons ≥ Σ fionization HCO+: 8 × 10-9 HC3NH + -10 N2H : 5 × 10 HCS+: 1 × 10-9 HCNH+: 3 × 10-9 HC3NH+: 1 × 10-10 (1.3x10-8) Problematic if ion census is incomplete or if electrons are attached! NB: C6H- 2. INFORMATION CONTENT OF IONS (cont’d) b. Ions as Tracers of Atoms and Molecules The detection of an ion can provide a ‘signature’ of the parent of the ion when the parent is ‘invisible’.

The cyanopolyynyl radicals like C5N are also very promising because they have EA values of 4 eV or more, so attachment is very favourable, but these radicals aren't as abundant as CnH radicals.

Provide excess energy for products, 2. Provide electrostatic energy for reactants. “molecular cannons” “molecular docks” Possible Sources of Molecular Dications 1. Sequential Photoionization X + h X+ + e X+ + h X2+ + e - More important within diffuse regions (since the penetration of UV radiation within dense clouds is poor). Need IE(X+) < IE(H). 2. Electron Transfer/ Electron Detachment He+ + X X2+ + He + e - Need IE(X) + IE(X+) < IE(He) (24.587 eV). - More feasible with larger molecules such as PAHs and fullerenes. - Observed with naphthalene and C60. 3. Cosmic-ray Ionization X + c.r. X2+ + c.r.’ + 2e - Has no energy restrictions, but efficiency is not known. - Likely to be of some significance throughout dense IS clouds (since cosmic rays can penetrate deep within such clouds). “Molecular Cannons” - Charge separation reactions of heavy multiply-charged cations with light molecules can lead to the production of internally cold, but translationally hot, ions - and so provide a driving force for the subsequent occurrence of ion/neutral reactions! Petrie S, Bohme DK MNRAS 268 (1994) 103-108. For partitioning of all of Coulombic repulsion, δ, into translational excitation of XH+ and statistical partitioning of excess energy, -(ΔH + δ) : ET (XH+) = (2 δ – ΔH) x (mC60Hn/(mC60Hn+mXH)/3 e.g. C602+ and C60H2+ as molecular canons: C602+ + C6H6 C60+ + C6H6+ ET = 40 kcal mol-1 C60H2+ + NH3 C60+ + NH4+ ET = 53 kcal mol-1 ET often 40 to 50 kcal mol-1 ! More favorable with heavy dications, but applicable to all molecular dications. e.g. Subsequent driven ion/molecule reactions: C60H2+ + C6 C60+ + C6H+ C6H+ + H2 C6H2+ + H Ea ≤ 1 kcal mol-1 C6H2+ + e C6H + e C6H- “Molecular Docks” C60 2+ + 2 HC3N C60 + c-(HC3N)2 +• + +• Milburn et al, JPC A 103 (1999) 7528.
