Concluding Remarks 000 References 000Over the past several decades, quadrupole ion traps have become important instruments in the study of gas phase ion/molecule reactions. As a part of this work, they have been employed in a number of studies focused on fundamental organic reaction mechanisms. In this review, the general features and limitations of quadrupole ion traps are discussed followed by a description of representative ion trap studies of organic reaction mechanisms such as substitution, elimination, and acyl transfer reactions. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
