The reaction of the ˙ CH 2 CH 2 OHCH 3 + distonic ion with CH 2 O was studied by Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance spectrometry. The process is induced by an initial regiospecific attack of the carbon CH 2 O at the radical site of the distonic ion, leading to an intermediate adduct ion which loses water. The mechanism was demonstrated by labelling, by studying the structure of the product ion and by examining independently the behaviour of the putative intermediate radical cation.
