Abstrakt: A mechanistic linkhas been found between the gas‐phase preparation of ethylenexenonium ions and the reactions of unsaturated compounds with XeF+salts, utilized in solution as stereoselective fluorinating agents. Complex C2H4XeF+(2) is the charged intermediate in the formation process of C2H4Xe+(1) from XeF+and ethylene. This was evidenced through FT‐ICR and TQ mass spectrometry, complemented by DFT calculations at the BLYP/DZVP//CCSD(T) level of theory.
