IUPAC. Analytical Division. Compendium of Analytical Nomenclature (the Orange Book). Definitive Rules, 1979 (see also Orange Book 2023)

Chemical ionization

Describes the process whereby new ionized species are formed when gaseous molecules interact with ions. The process may involve transfer of an electron, a proton or other charged species between the reactants. When a positive ion results from chemical ionization the term may be used without qualification. When a negative ion results the term negative ion chemical ionization should be used. Note that this term is not synonymous with chemi-ionization, nor with negative chemical ionization.

This concerns the process whereby new ionization species are formed when gaseous molecules interact with ions. The process may involve transfer of an electron, proton or other charged species between the reactants. When a positive ion results from chemical ionization, the term may be used without qualification. When a negative ion is involved, the term negative ion chemical ionization should be used; note that negative ion formation by attachment of a free electron does not fall within this definition. Chemical ionization and chemi-ionization are two terms which should not be used interchangeably. See: electron attachment
