A determination of the stabilities of H<sup> + </sup><sub>3</sub>(H2)n with n=1–9 from measurements of the gas-phase ion equilibria H<sup> + </sup><sub>3</sub>(H2)n−1 +H2=H<sup> + </sup><sub>3</sub>(H2)n

The equilibria of clustering reaction H<sup> + </sup><sub>3</sub>(H2)n−1 +H2=H<sup> + </sup><sub>3</sub>(H2)n were studied over the temperature range 330–25 K. The experiments were done with a pulsed electron–beam mass spectrometer. The ion source was thermostatted using a temperature-regulated cryocooler. The thermochemical stabilities of H<sup> + </sup><sub>3</sub>(H2)n with n=1–9 were determined. The ions H<sup> + </sup><sub>5</sub>, H<sup> + </sup><sub>9</sub>, H<sup> + </sup><sub>15</sub>, and H<sup> + </sup><sub>19</sub> are relatively more stable toward dissociation. The enthalpy changes for the clustering reaction yielding H<sup> + </sup><sub>5</sub> and H<sup> + </sup><sub>7</sub> were found to be in good agreement with the recent experimental study of Beuhler, Ehrenson, and Friedman, but in somewhat poor agreement with the earlier examination by Hiraoka and Kebarle.
