title: Ionization of Ozone/Chlorofluorocarbon Mixtures in Atmospheric Gases: Formation and Dissociation of
abstract: Complexes that undergo extensive molecular reorganization upon unimolecular metastable dissociation are obtained after ionization of atmospheric gases containing ozone and chlorofluorocarbons [Eq. (1)]. These unusual processes, which require fission of all bonds initially present in the CHX(2) unit (X=Cl, F) and combination of C with one of the O atoms of ozone, were demonstrated and their mechanism rationalized by the joint application of mass spectrometric and theoretical methods.
