41. At first sight, it may appear surprising that also weakly coordinating counterions, such as PF6-, form abundant ion pairs with organic cations, but in the gas phase such ion pairs are in fact quite common, see: a) J.

64. A reviewer asked for additional correlations, however, neither the thresholds nor the SQ/HQ ratios show statistically significant correlations with the degrees of freedom or the size of the anions or their properties in terms of the HSAB concept. For ion radii in solution and the HSAB concept, respectively, see: a) Y. Marcus, Chem. Rev. 1988, 88, 1475 -1498;

71. Within the experimental error, the free dications HQ2+ and SQ2+ have identical arrival times, which is fully consistent with their computed cross sections to agree within 0.1 -2.
72. The data for X=I slightly deviate from those for X=TfO and PF6, which most likely is due to the small basis set used for iodine (see computational details).

76. Using DDG=RTeff · ln(SQ/HQ), with Teff=1000 K we obtain relative stabilities of 7, -8, and -10 kJmolá1 for X=I, TfO, and PF6, compared to computed values of 11, -5, and -10 kJmolá1, respectively (Table 3).
