Popis: The reactions of Sc{sup +}, Y{sup +}, La{sup +}, and Lu{sup +} with H{sub 2}, D{sub 2}, and HD are examined by use of guided ion beam mass spectrometry. Sc{sup +}, Y{sup +} and La{sup +} are found to react primarily via an insertion mechanism, while Lu{sup +} reacts impulsively at threshold and in a direct manner at higher energies. A simple molecular orbital model coupled with adiabatic surface crossings is used to explain the reactivity seen. The results are analyzed to give the O K bond energies D{degree}(Sc{sup +}-H) = 2.44 {plus minus} 0.09 eV, D{degree} (Y{sup +}-H) = 2.66 {plus minus} 0.06 eV, D{degree} (La{sup +}-H) = 2.48 {plus minus} 0.09 eV, and a more tentative value of D{degree} (Lu{sup +}-H) = 2.11 {plus minus} 0.16 eV (48.6 {plus minus} 3.7 kcal/mol). The results suggest that intrinsic M{sup +}-H bond dissociation energies for third-row metals are about 60 kcal/mol, similar to values for the first and second rows.
