Rate constants obtained by the ICR technique are reported for reaction (1), C2H2+ + HCN and reaction (2) HCN+ + C2H2 such that k1 = 3.6 × 10−10 and k2 = 6.9 × 10−10 cm3 molecule−1 s−1, respectively. Differences between these results and other measurements of reaction (1) are discussed. The relevance of reaction (1) to the formation of HC3N in interstellar clouds is also briefly assessed.
