AbstractDilute mixtures of C6H6 or C6D6 in He provide abundant [C6H6]+· or [C6D6]+· ions and small amounts of [C6H7]+ or [C6D7]+ ions as chemical ionization (CI) reagent ions. The C6H6 or C6D6 CI spectra of alkylbenzenes and alkylanilines contain predominantly M+· ions from reactions of [C6H6]+· or [C6D6]+· and small amounts of MH+ or MD+ ions from reactions of [C6H7]+ or [C6D7]+. Benzene CI spectra of aliphatic amines contain M+·, fragment ions and sample‐size‐dependent MH+ ions from sample ion‐sample molecules reactions. The C6D6 CI spectra of substituted pyridines contain M+· and MD+ ions in different ratios depending on the substituent (which alters the ionization energy of the substituted pyridine), as well as sample‐size‐dependent MH+ ions from sample ion‐sample molecule reactions. Two mechanisms are observed for the formation of MD+ ions: proton transfer from [C6D6]+· or charge transfer from [C6D6]+· to give M+·, followed by deuteron transfer from C6D6 to M+·. The mechanisms of reactions were established by ion cyclotron resonance (ICR) experiments. Proton transfer from [C6H6]+· or [C6D6]+· is rapid only for compounds for which proton transfer is exothermic and charge transfer is endothermic. For compounds for which both charge transfer and proton transfer are exothermic, charge transfer is the almost exclusive reaction.
