contents Massive leptophobic Z' bosons decaying to a pair of charginos are searched for in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV, using data samples collected by the CMS experiment in 2016, 2017, and 2018, corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 138 fb$^{-1}$. The Z' bosons originate from an additional U(1)' gauge symmetry extended to the minimal supersymmetric standard model. The final state consists of two oppositely charged leptons and missing transverse momentum. The signal extraction is performed with a parametrized neural network. The measurements are found to be consistent with the standard model expectations. Upper limits are set on the Z' boson production cross sections as a function of the Z' and chargino masses. The analysis excludes Z' boson masses up to about 3.5 TeV for the specific case of Z' bosons decaying exclusively to charginos, with the charginos decaying to W bosons and neutralinos.
