Enantioselective femtosecond laser photoionization spectrometry of limonene using photoelectron circular dichroism.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Limonene is ionized by circularly polarized 420 nm femtosecond laser pulses. Ion mass and photoelectron energy spectra identify the dominant (2 + 1) multiphoton ionization mechanism, aided by TDDFT calculations of the Rydberg excitations. Photoelectron circular dichroism measurements on pure enantiomers reveal a chiral asymmetry of ±4 %.

Mass-selective discrimination of chiral molecules by femtosecond multi-photon photoelectron circular dichroism
In this chapter, the study of the chiral molecule Camphor is reported using femtosecond multi-photon ionization in combination with masscorrelated photoelectron coincidence imaging. It is shown that a relatively simple table-top experimental set-up can be used to detect massselected enantiomers with high selectivity and sensitivity. The novel technique that is coined multi-photon photoelectron ...
متن کاملEnantiomer-specific analysis of multi-component mixtures by correlated electron imaging–ion mass spectrometry
Simultaneous, enantiomer-specific identification of chiral molecules in multi-component mixtures is extremely challenging. Many established techniques for single-component analysis fail to provide selectivity in multi-component mixtures and lack sensitivity for dilute samples. Here we show how enantiomers may be differentiated by mass-selected photoelectron circular dichroism using an electron-...
متن کاملPhotoelectron circular dichroism of bicyclic ketones from multiphoton ionization with femtosecond laser pulses.
Photoelectron circular dichroism (PECD) is a CD effect up to the ten-percent regime and shows contributions from higher-order Legendre polynomials when multiphoton ionization is compared to single-photon ionization. We give a full account of our experimental methodology for measuring the multiphoton PECD and derive quantitative measures that we apply on camphor, fenchone and norcamphor. Differe...

A femtosecond pulsed laser system has been installed at the BL25SU soft x-ray beamline at SPring-8 for time-resolved pump-probe experiments with synchronization of the laser pulses to the circularly polarized x-ray pulses. There are four different apparatuses situated at the beamline; for photoemission spectroscopy, two-dimensional display photoelectron diffraction, x-ray magnetic circular dich...
متن کاملEnantiomeric Excess Sensitivity to Below One Percent by Using Femtosecond Photoelectron Circular Dichroism.
Photoelectron circular dichroism (PECD) is experimentally investigated with chiral specimens with varying amounts of enantiomeric excess (ee). As a prototype, we measure and analyze the photoelectron angular distribution from randomly oriented fenchone molecules in the gas phase that result from ionization with circularly polarized femtosecond laser pulses. The quantification of these measureme...
