We have developed a time-dependent chemical kinetic model to describe the chemistry in the circumstellar envelopes of cool stars, with particular reference to IRC + 10216. Our detailed calculations show that ion-molecule reactions are important in the formation of many of the species observed in IRC + 10216.
