Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The direct observation of the protonation of an imine by the hydronium ion in the example of the N-methylethylenimine (MEI)-H3O+·Cl− system has been carried out.

  2. 2.

    It has been shown experimentally that the protonation of a hydrated imine also takes place for MEI·H2O despite the fact that the lone pair of the N atom is shielded by an H bond, i.e., the water participating in the formation of the hydrate does not prevent protonation.
