      Abstract
      Electron attachment to NCCCCN, dicyanoacetylene (2-butynedinitrile), has been observed. Metastable parent anions, NCCCCN_∗, with microsecond or longer lifetimes are formed close to 0 eV electron energy with a cross section of ≥0.25 2. The stability of NCCCCN suggests that radiative attachment to NCCCCN and similar _∗ °A linear carbon chain molecules may be an important mechanism for the formation of negatively charged molecular ions in astrophysical environments. CCCN_ and CN_ fragment anions are formed at ∼3 and ∼6 eV.
