Diethard Böhme has had a long career covering many topics in ion-molecule reactivity. In this review, we describe the work done at the Air Force Research Laboratory (and its variously named preceding organizations) that was inspired by his studies. These fall into two main areas: nucleophilic displacement (S_N2) and metal cation chemistry. In S_N2 chemistry, we revisited many of the reactions Diethard pioneered and studied them in more detail. We found nonstatistical behavior, both competition and noncompetition between multiple channels. New channels were found as hydration occurred, with more solution-like behavior occurring as only a few ligands were added. Temperature-dependent studies revealed details that were not observable at room temperature. These and other highlights will be discussed. In metal cation reactions, Diethard's use of an inductively coupled ion source allowed him to systematically study the periodic table of elements with a number of simple neutrals. We have taken the most interesting of these and studied them in greater detail. In doing so, we were able to identify curve crossing rates, in a few instances information about product states, and the importance of multiple entrance channels.

离子-分子反应的温度和能量依赖性：受 Diethard Böhme 启发的研究

Diethard Böhme 的职业生涯很长，涉及离子分子反应性的许多主题。在这篇评论中，我们描述了受他的研究启发而在空军研究实验室（及其各种名称的先前组织）所做的工作。这些分为两个主要领域：亲核置换 (S _N 2) 和金属阳离子化学。在 S _N2 化学，我们重新审视了 Diethard 开创的许多反应，并对其进行了更详细的研究。我们发现了非统计行为，包括多个渠道之间的竞争和非竞争。随着水合的发生，发现了新的通道，由于仅添加了少数配体，因此出现了更多类似溶液的行为。与温度相关的研究揭示了在室温下无法观察到的细节。将讨论这些和其他亮点。在金属阳离子反应中，Diethard 使用电感耦合离子源使他能够系统地研究具有许多简单中性元素的元素周期表。我们选取了其中最有趣的部分，并对其进行了更详细的研究。在这样做的过程中，我们能够识别曲线交叉率，在少数情况下，有关产品状态的信息，
