Threshold collision-induced dissociation (TCID) of the thorium monocarbonyl cation, ThCO+, with xenon is performed using a guided ion beam tandem mass spectrometer. The only product observed is Th+ resulting from loss of the CO ligand. Analysis of the kinetic energy-dependent cross sections for this CID reaction yields the first experimental determination of the bond dissociation energy (BDE) of Th+-CO at 0 K as 0.94 ± 0.06 eV. Calculated BDEs at the CCSD(T) level of theory with cc-pVXZ (X = T and Q) basis sets and a complete
