By means of collisional activation mass spectrometry and semi‐empirical molecular orbital calculations (MNDO) it is shown that the [C 2 H 5 O 2 ] + ions from metastable molecular ions of n ‐pentanoic and hexanoic acid have the structure of carbonyl protonated acetic acid [CH 3 C(OH) 2 ] + . The MNDO calculated geometries of this ion and some other isomeric forms are given together with the Δ H f 0 values.
