2,5-dimethylfuran (C{sub 6}H{sub 8}O) is an important fuel additive and a possible renewable liquid fuel for the future. This paper presents a recent Fourier transfer mass spectrometry study on the formation of ions from C{sub 6}H{sub 8}O by electron impact ionization and by ion-molecule reactions. Cross sections of the partial electron impact ionization have been measured and the pathways of major fragmentation channels of the parent ion have been examined. The kinetics of the reactions of C{sub 6}H{sub 8}O with selected product ions from electron impact and Ar{sup +} have been studied.
