Abstract

In ab initio calculations, we determined the most probable routes of decomposition of the [CF3Cl]+, [CF2Cl2]+, [CFCl3]+, [CCl4]+ molecular ions of freons and [C3H8]+ ions of hydrocarbons formed by collision of neutral molecules with protons with energies of the order of 10 keV. The calculated potential surface sections are compared on a qualitative level with the probability of various ion fragments in experiments on fragmentation. The role of the charge transfer dynamics between the proton and the molecule is discussed.
