Determination of gas phase basicities (defined as the enthalpy change for the reaction BH/sup +/ ..-->.. B + H/sup +/) of diazabicyclooctane and quinuclidine using ion cyclotron resonance spectroscopy is reported. The relationship between nitrogen lone pair interactions and thermodynamic parameters associated with amine basicity are delineated. The use of BH/sup +/ homolytic bond dissociation energies as a measure of nitrogen lone pair interactions and of resonance stabilization is discussed. (DDA)
