Experimental observation of guanine tautomers with VUV photoionization.
Two methods of preparing guanine in the gas phase, thermal vaporization and laser desorption, have been investigated. The guanine generated by each method is entrained in a molecular beam, single-photon ionized with tunable VUV synchrotron radiation, and analyzed using reflectron mass spectrometry. The recorded photoionization efficiency (PIE) curves show a dramatic difference for experiments p...
متن کاملFragment-Free Mass Spectrometric Analysis with Jet Cooling/VUV Photoionization.
We show that it is possible to obtain fragment-free mass spectra of large molecules by a combination of laser desorption, jet cooling, and VUV single-photon photoionization. The ability to obtain parent molecular masses is particularly important for the analysis of mixtures, such as combinations of fully saturated hydrocarbons. By varying the cooling conditions, we can also achieve partial frag...
متن کاملVUV photoionization cross sections of HO2, H2O2, and H2CO.
The absolute vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) photoionization spectra of the hydroperoxyl radical (HO2), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and formaldehyde (H2CO) have been measured from their first ionization thresholds to 12.008 eV. HO2, H2O2, and H2CO were generated from the oxidation of methanol initiated by pulsed-laser-photolysis of Cl2 in a low-pressure slow flow reactor. Reactants, intermediates, and p...
متن کاملNear-UV resonant two-photon ionization spectroscopy of gas phase guanine: evidence for the observation of three rare tautomers.
In light of a recently published study on the IR spectroscopy of guanine in He droplets (Choi, M. Y.; Miller, R. E. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2006, 128, 7320), the present letter proposes a new interpretation of the resonant two-photon ionization (R2PI) experiments on gas phase guanine, which is supported by quantum chemistry calculations. Whereas He droplet experiments detect the most stable forms, on...
متن کاملRovibrational-state-selected photoionization of acetylene by the two-color IR+VUV scheme: observation of rotationally resolved Rydberg transitions.
We have demonstrated a rovibrational-state-selected photoionization experiment using an IR laser and high-resolution VUV-synchrotron radiation. The VUV photoionization of acetylene [C2H2(Xtilde; (1)Sigma(+)(g);nu(3)=1,J(')=8 or 10)] prepared by IR excitation reveals three strong autoionizing Rydberg series converging to C2H+2(Xtilde; (2)Pi(u);nu(+)(3)=1) with little ion background interference....
