%X Charge reversal (CR) and neutralization&#8211;reionization (NR) mass spectra of aliphatic carboxylate ions RCOO&#8211; provide insight into the behaviour of the transient neutral carboxy radicals RCOO&#8226; as well as the short-lived RCOO+ cations. For the neutral radicals, a novel hydrogen rearrangement is proposed, which might explain the sometimes only modest yields in the Hunsdiecker reaction of carboxylic acids in the condensed phase.
