The optimized geometries and energies of fluorine-substituted ethylene dications C2HnF4-n 2+ (n = 0-4) have been investigated by means of ab initio methods. At the MP3/6-31G**//6-31G* + zero-point energy level of theory, the results predict that C2F42+ and C2HF32+ are planar, while C2H42+, C2H3F2+ and 1,1 - C2H2F22+ prefer a perpendicular geometry. For 1,2 - C2H2F22+ an energy difference of only 0.3 kcal/mol is found between the (trans) planar and perpendicular structure. The stabilizations attributed to hyperconjugation, fluorine lone-pair donation, and (C—F) double-bond conjugation are discussed. A comparison is made for the C—C and C—F stretching frequencies determined at 6-31G*//6-31G* between the neutral and dicationic species. The theoretically determined ionization energies for the vertical process N+ → N2+ at the MP3/6-31G*//3-21G level are compared with experimental Qmin values.
