Scientific paper

It is suggested that nonproton hydrate ions observed at 37 km by Arnold, Boehringer, and Henschen are protonated sodium hydroxide cluster ions of the form NaOH2(+)(H2O)n(NaOH)m. It is also suggested that n ranges from 0 to 4 while m ranges from 0 to 2. Since the NaOH believed to be formed from NaO, has a very large proton affinity, protons would be transferred to it from the H(+)(H2O)n ions that are produced in the stratosphere. The possible role of other metallic species in stratospheric ion chemistry is briefly considered.
