The standard Gibbs energy change for the halide transfer between tert-butyl chloride and trichlorocyclopropenyl cation has been determined by means of Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry. Trichlorocyclopropenyl cation is found to be substantially more stable than tert-butyl a...
