CH<sub>3</sub>OH<sup>•+</sup> + CH<sub>4</sub> Reaction: Mechanistic Insights and Reaction Rates for Astrochemical and Atmospheric Environments

The reaction between methanol radical cations and methane, producing methyl radicals and protonated methanol, is pivotal to both astrochemical and atmospheric processes. Methanol and methane are the most abundant organic molecules in space and Earth’s atmosphere and central to molecular synthesis un...
