In continuation of radiochemical studies on the mechanism of reactions of alkyl cations with amines, the authors identified neutral products of gas-phase ion-molecular reactions of the CT{sub 3}{sup +} cation with diisopropyl-, diisobutyl-, and di-sec-butylamines. Similar to reactions with diethylamine, the reactions studied give mainly products of dissociation of proton-transfer complexes and those resulting from insertion in the substrate molecules of carbene formed by abstraction of a proton from the methyl cation. In reactions with dibutylamines, the different isomeric composition of products of dissociation of proton-transfer complexes, on the one hand, and condensation complexes on the other, suggests that isomerization of the butyl group occurs within the lifetime of the intermediate complexes. 15 refs., 1 tab.
