%X The ion-molecule reactions of CH3F and CH2Cl2 were examined in the gas phase using a high-pressure mass spectrometer. The ionic products of CH3F were mainly CH2F+, C2H6F+, and CH4F+. In the CH2Cl2 system the main product was CHCl2+ together with smaller amounts of CH2Cl+, CH3Cl2+, and several condensation ions. The ionic reactivity of the two compounds was compared to that of other halomethanes. Rate coefficients and reaction cross sections for many primary reactant ions were measured as a function of the ion exit energy.
