The rate constants of ion-molecule reactions which are of potential significance in astrochemical systems are found to exhibit significant, and in many cases, negative temperature dependences. The rate constants of fast ion-polar molecule reactions (e.g., XH++B»BH++X) may increase by a factor of 5 10 between 1000 and 10K. Slow reactions that proceed via reaction complexes (e.g., H-transfer and association reactions) often exhibit temperature dependences of the formk=AT -n ,n=1 5. Both transition state theory considerations and the coupled-oscillator RRK-type model are seen to be able to account qualitatively for the behavior of slow ion-molecule, reactions.
