	    After characterizing the negative ion chemistry of tris(trifluoromethyl) phosphine in a previous work, new insights about the interpretation of the MS/MS mass spectrum of the phosphide anion (CF3)2P- m/z 169 could be revealed and are described in this current work. The phosphide (CF3)2P- anion, m/z 169, was accelerated in a cloud of (CF3)3P neutrals and new product ions could be detected which do not belong to fragmentation channels. Instead, high mass anions m/z 207 and m/z 257 are found, and the reaction mechanism could be revealed by density functional theory (DFT) calculations at B3LYP/6-311 + G(3df)//B3LYP/6-31 + G(2d) level of theory. The formation of the phosphoranide (CF3)3PF- m/z 257 is the result of a fluoride anion transfer from the accelerated phosphide anion (CF3) 2P- m/z 169 to the (CF3)3P neutral m = 238. Decomposition of the newly formed phosphoranide (CF3) 3PF- m/z 257 leads to the formation of smaller phosphoranides (CF3)2PF2 - m/z 207 and CF3PF3 - m/z 157 as a result of successive CF2 eliminations. A new rearrangement in the formed phosphoranide (CF3)2PF2 - could be revealed, whereby a CC bond formation can take place and the product anion C 2F5 - m/z 119 could be experimentally obtained.
