The recent interstellar detection of the high-energy O-protonated carbonyl sulfide isomer (HOCS+) toward the molecular cloud G+0.693-0.027 contrasts with the non-detection of its lower-energy S-protonated counterpart, HSCO+, the global minimum in energy. This raises questions regarding the occurrence of selective formation pathways of these [H,C,S,O]+ isomers in space. Aims. In this work, we aim to explore the most likely gas-phase formation routes for both HOCS+ and HSCO+ beyond the direct protonation of OCS (i.e., HCS+ + OH, HCO+ + SH, HOC+ + SH, and HCO + SH+) to help rationalize previous observational results. Methods. We first explored the thermodynamic feasibility of the aforementioned reactions using high-level double-hybrid B2PLYPD3/aug-cc-pVTZ and CCSD(T)-F12/cc-pVTZ-F12 computations. For the reaction HCS+ + OH, found to be the most ther modynamically favorable, we characterized the stationary points on its corresponding potential energy surface (PES). In addition, we also used a composite approach to refine relative energies and employed the statistical rate theory and master equation simulations to estimate rate constants and branching ratios. Results. We show that HOCS+ is preferentially formed through the reaction of HCS+ with OH, providing a plausible chemical explanation for its interstellar presence and the non-detection of the low energy isomer. Nevertheless, while the branching ratio computed at a T Tkin(G+0.693) = 70-140 K is qualitatively consistent with the observations, its value is two orders of magnitude larger than the derived HOCS+/HSCO+ lower limit observational ratio (of 2.3). This suggests that if the upper limit of HSCO+ is close to the real abundance, additional formation pathways may also play a significant role in shaping the isomeric ratio. Conclusions. These results highlight that including all isomers in a given family, along with their isomer-preferential formation pathways, in astrochemical models, which are in many cases isomer-insensitive, is essential to understand their formation routes.Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovación y Universidades (MICIU) / Agencia Estatal de Investigación (AEI): contrato posdoctoral Ramón y Cajal de Víctor Manuel Rivilla (RYC2020-029387-I) (MICIU/AEI/10.13039/501100011033 / FSE)Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC) / Centro de Astrobiología (CAB): Proyectos intramurales especiales del CSIC (20225AT015)Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovación y Universidades (MICIU) / Agencia Estatal de Investigación (AEI): CNS2023-144464 (MICIU/AEI/10.13039/501100011033 / European Union NextGenerationEU/PRTR)Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovación y Universidades (MICIU) / Agencia Estatal de Investigación (AEI): contrato posdoctoral Juan de la Cierva de Miguel San Novo (JDC2022-048934-I) (MICIU/AEI/10.13039/501100011033 / European Union “NextGenerationEU”/PRTR)Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovación y Universidades (MICIU) / Agencia Estatal de Investigación (AEI): PID2022-136814NB-I00 (MICIU/AEI/10.13039/501100011033 / FEDER/EU)Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC): i-LINK23017 SENTINELMinisterio de Ciencia e Innovación (MICIN) / Agencia Estatal de Investigación (AEI): PID2020-117742GBI00 (MICIN/AEI/10.13039/501100011033)2025info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/202557216https://uvadoc.uva.es/handle/10324/80100reponame:UVaDOC.
