114. We follow a definition, which considers as "electrostatic" the interactions of the cation with the electrostatic field of the unpolarized molecule. Charge-induced multipole attractions are considered to be polarization interactions. For a thorough discussion, see: Dunbar, R. C. J. Phys. Chem. A 1998, 102, 8946.

129. +@22] are distributed over a large mass range (m/z = 2495-3280). Therefore, the deviation of the intensity ratios from the statistical 1:2:1 may be due to mass discrimination effects. Since our arguments are qualitative in nature, we did not quantify these effects for the particular instrument used.
