Four dominant reactions can be observed when the β‐distonic ion · CH 2 CH 2 OH + 2reacts in the cell of a Fourier‐transform ion cyclotron resonance spectrometer with a number of neutral molecules: protonation of the neutral molecule, ethylene radical‐cation transfer, hydride abstraction from the neutral molecule, and charge exchange. Among the ethylene transfer reactions, which can lead to a variety of other distonic ions, we have throroughly studied the reaction with formaldehyde. The reaction of a first molecule of CH 2 O yields · CH 2 CH 2 OCH + 2 . The addition of a second one leads to 1,3‐dioxane which stabilizes by H · loss. This latter reaction is regiospecific.
