Step by step: The combined use of ESI mass spectrometry and complementary DFT approaches allows the proposal of a formation mechanism for the Lindqvist anion. The mechanism is based on successive aggregation steps of hydrogentungstate anion as the "building block" with subsequent protonation and water condensation. The Lindqvist anion is formed after five steps. © 2009 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.
