The gas-phase ion/molecule reactions of F(-) and EtO(-) with Ge(OEt)(4) yield readily and exclusively pentacoordinated complexes XGe(OEt)(4)(-) (X = F, EtO) at pressures in the 10(-8) T range as observed by FT-ICR techniques. ...

The gas-phase structures of cytosine–Ag+ [CAg]+ and cytosine–Ag+–H2O [CAg–H2O]+ complexes have been studied by mass-selected infrared multiphoton dissociation (IRMPD) spectroscopy in the 900–1800 cm−1 spectral region using ...

InfraRed Multi-Photon Dissociation (IRMPD) is a highly selective laser isotope separation technique. This process consists of a sequential IR photon absorption from the ground vibrational state up to dissociation by a ...

Doubly charged microhydrated adducts formed from catechol and calcium(II) were produced in the gas phase using electrospray ionization (ESI) appearing as the most important ions in the mass spectra recorded. The gas phase ...

Gas phase protonated guanine-cytosine (CGH+) pair was generated using an electrospray ionization source from solutions at two different pH (5.8 and 3.2). Consistent evidence from MS/MS fragmentation patterns and differential ...

In this paper, we present the IRMPD spectra of three ionic complexes between guanine (G) and silver (Ag+): [GAg-H2O]+, [GAgG]+produced in the electrospray ionization source of the mass spectrometer, and [GAg]+produced by ...

An intracavity system for the infrared multiple photon dissociation (IRMPD) of molecules with high dissociation energy threshold has been designed and implemented. The system design based on a TEA CO2 laser with a cavity ...

The infrared multiphoton dissociation (IRMPD) of pure SiF4 and in mixtures with different gases was studied using a tunable CO2 TEA laser. The initial dissociation step of the IRMPD of SiF4 was found to be the decomposition ...
