Molecular oxygen generation from the reaction of water cations with oxygen atoms
Fortenberry, Ryan C.; Trabelsi, Tarek; Westbrook, Brent R. +2 more
The oxywater cation (H2OO+), previously shown to form barrierlessly in the gas phase from water cations and atomic oxygen, is proposed here potentially to possess a 2A″ ←4A″ excitation leading to the H2⋯O2+ complex. This complex could then easily decompose into molecular …
