Ceramide fragments from permethylated glycosphingolipids (GSLs) were studied by highenergy collision-induced dissociation (CID). In comparison with ceramlde fragments of underivatized GSLs, many more product ions including charge-remote fragment ions were observed. These ions provided detailed structural information on the ceramides. The relative intensity and the mass interval between the L and M ions were used to assign the position of the double bond. The position of the hydroxyl group was assigned with the Ln and K ions. Because the ceramide fragments and not the pseudomolecular ions were selected as the precursor ions, the size of GSLs had little effect on the quality of the product ion spectra. The sensitivity of this approach was in the range of picomoles. 相似文献

Singly and doubly charged cluster ions of ammonium tetrafluoroborate (NH4BF4) with general formula [(NH4BF4)nNH4]+ and [(NH4BF4)m(NH4)2]2+, respectively, were generated by electrospray ionization (ESI) and their fragmentation examined using collision-induced dissociation (CID) and ion-trap tandem mass spectrometry. CID of [(NH4BF4)nNH4]+ caused the loss of one or more neutral NH4BF4 units. The n = 2 cluster, [(NH4BF4)2NH4]+, was unique in that it also exhibited a dissociation pathway in which HBF4 was eliminated to create [(NH4BF4)(NH3)NH4]+. Dissociation of [(NH4BF4)m(NH4)2]2+ occurred through two general pathways: (a) 'fission' to produce singly charged cluster ions and (b) elimination of one or more neutral NH4BF4 units to leave doubly charged product ions. CID profiles, and measurements of changing precursor and product ion signal intensity as a function of applied collision voltage, were collected for [(NH4BF4)nNH4]+ and compared with those for analogous [(NaBF4)nNa]+ and [(KBF4)nK]+ ions to determine the influence of the cation on the relative stability of cluster ions. In general, the [(NH4BF4)nNH4]+ clusters were found to be easier to dissociate than both the sodium and potassium clusters of comparable size, with [(KBF4)nK]+ ions the most difficult to dissociate. 相似文献

Tandem mass spectrometry performed on a pool of 18 oligopeptides shows that the product ion spectra of argentinated peptides, the [bn + OH + Ag]+ ions and the [yn - H + Ag]+ ions bearing identical sequences are virtually identical. These observations suggest strongly that these ions have identical structures in the gas phase. The structures of argentinated glycine, glycylglycine, and glycylglycylglycine were calculated using density functional theory (DFT) at the B3LYP/DZVP level of theory; they were independently confirmed using HF/LANL2DZ. For argentinated glycylglycylglycine, the most stable structure is one in which Ag+ is tetracoordinate and attached to the amino nitrogen and the three carbonyl oxygen atoms. Mechanisms are proposed for the fragmentation of this structure to the [b2 + OH + Ag]+ and the [Y2 - H + Ag]+ ions that are consistent with all experimental observations and known calculated structures and energetics. The structures of the [b2 - H + Ag]+ and the [a2 - H + Ag]+ ions of glycylglycylglycine were also calculated using DFT. These results confirm earlier suggestions that the [b2 - H + Ag]+ ion is an argentinated oxazolone and the [a2 - H + Ag]+ an argentinated immonium ion. 相似文献

Collision-induced dissociation and infrared multiphoton dissociation of ions formed in di- and tri-ethylamine, di- and tri-n-propylamine, and di-isopropylamine were investigated by Fourier-transform ion-cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry. Molecular ions of all amines except di-n-propylamine produced similar fragment ions when subjected to either dissociation technique. The initial fragmentation involved CαCβ bond cleavage, loss of an alkyl radical, and formation of an immonium ions. Subsequent fragmentations of the immonium ions produced by both dissociation mechanisms involved McLafferty-type rearrangements and loss of alkenes. The molecular ion of di-n-propylamine fragmented by a different mechanism when subjected to infrared irradiation. Protonated molecules of di- and tri-n-propylamine yielded C3H6 and an ammonium ion upon infrared multiphoton dissociation, while protonated molecules of the other amines did not dissociate when this technique was applied. In contrast, collision-induced dissociation produced fragmentation for all protonated molecules. Explanation of the different fragmentations observed for the two dissociation techniques is given in terms of a mechanism involving a tight transition state for protonated di- and tri-n-propylamine dissociation. 相似文献

High-energy collision-induced dissociation (CID) mass spectrometry provides a rapid and sensitive means for determining the primary sequence of peptides. The low-mass region (below mass 300) of a large number of tandem CID spectra of peptides has been analyzed. This mass region contains several types of informative fragment ions, including dipeptide ions, immonium ions, and other related ions. Useful low-mass ions are also present in negative-ion CID spectra. Immonium ions (general structure [H2N=CH-R]+, where R is the amino acid side chain) and related ions characteristic of specific amino acid residues give information as to the presence or absence of these residues in the peptide being analyzed. Tables of observed immonium and reiated ions for the 20 standard amino acids and for a number of modified amino acids are presented. A database consisting of 228 high-energy CID spectra of peptides has been established, and the frequency of occurrence of various ions indicative of specific ammo acid residues has been determined. Two model computer-aided schemes for analysis of the ammo-acid content of unknown peptides have been developed and tested against the database. 相似文献

A whole-protein tandem mass spectrometry approach for protein identification based on precursor ion charge state concentration via ion/ion reactions, ion-trap collisional activation, ion/ion proton-transfer reactions involving the product ions, and mass analysis over a narrow m/z range (up to m/z 2000) is described and evaluated. The experiments were carried out with a commercially available electrospray ion-trap instrument that has been modified to allow for ion/ion reactions. Reaction conditions and the approach to searching protein databases were developed with the assumption that the resolving power of the mass analyzer is insufficient to distinguish charge states on the basis of the isotope spacings. Ions derived from several charge states of cytochrome c, myoglobin, ribonuclease A, and ubiquitin were used to evaluate the approach for protein identification and to develop a two-step procedure to database searching to optimize specificity. The approach developed with the model proteins was then applied to whole cell lysate fractions of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The results are illustrated with examples of assignments made for three a priori unknown proteins, each selected randomly from a lysate fraction. Two of the three proteins were assigned to species present in the database, whereas one did not match well any database entry. The combination of the mass measurement and the product ion masses suggested the possibility for the oxidation of two methionine residues of a protein in the database. The examples show that this limited whole-protein characterization approach can provide insights that might otherwise be lacking with approaches based on complete enzymatic digestion. 相似文献

Metastable uni-cluster dissociation for several hydrogen-bonded and van der Waals cluster ions are observed via resonance-enhanced two-photon ionization reflectron time-of-flight (TOF) mass spectrometry. All of the cluster ions studied show evaporation of a single molecule from the respective parent cluster ions as dominant metastable decay processes. Furthermore, the averaged metastable evaporation rate constants (k evap) of these cluster ions in a fixed time domain of 0.2–50 µs are obtained by analyzing the relative intensity of metastable ion peaks due to evaporation in the acceleration and the field-free drift regions of the TOF mass spectrometer. An intensity anomaly in some of the observed metastable ion peaks, indicative of magic number stability of the cluster ion, is also presented. 相似文献

Electrospray mass spectrometry (ESMS) and collision-induced dissociation (CID) methodologies have been developed for the structural characterization of ginseng saponins (ginsenosides). Ginsenosides are terpene glycosides containing a triterpene core to which one to four sugars may be attached. They are neutral molecules which readily form molecular metal-attachment ions in positive ion ESMS experiments. In the presence of ammonium hydroxide intense deprotonated ions are generated. Both positive and negative ion ESMS experiments were found to be useful for molecular mass and structure determination of ten ginsenoside standards. Negative ion experiments made possible the determination of the molecular mass of each ginsenoside standard, the mass of the triterpene core and the masses and sequences of the sugar residues. Positive ion ESMS experiments with the alkali metal cations Li+ or Na+ and the transition metal cations Co2+, Ni2+ and Zn2+ were also useful in determining molecular masses. These alkali and transition metal cations form strongly bonded attachment ions with the ginsenosides. As a result, the CID mass spectra of the metal attachment ions show a variety of (structure characteristic) fragmentations. These experiments can be used to determine the identity of the triterpene core, the types and attachment points of sugars to the core and the nature of the O-glycosidic linkages in the appended disaccharides. Combining the results from the negative and positive ion experiments provides a promising approach to the structure analysis of this class of natural products. 相似文献

The ion-trapping ion cyclotron resonance spectrometer, or Fourier transform mass spectrometer, provides a powerful and convenient environment for the study of photodissociation of gas-phase ions. This capability has been explored for about 30 years in a number of laboratories including our own. A variety of developments and applications, historical and current, are organized here under five broad headings: (1) optical spectroscopy of ions; (2) kinetics of the dissociation process; (3) dynamics of the dissociation process; (4) thermochemistry of dissociation; and (5) probing the structure and energy of the ions. 相似文献

The boundary trajectories separating non-reactive, reactive, and dissociative bands of trajectories in atom—diatom collision-induced dissociation are defined. Trajectory calculations are reported for the collinear H + H2 reaction which demonstrate how the boundary trajectories can be used to obtained information on the non-reactive, reactive, and dissociative regions of the reagents phase space. 相似文献

Collision-induced dissociation of a 5–10 keV N2+ beam impinging on a helium target has been reinvestigated by translational spectroscopy. The laboratory kinetic energy distribution of N+ fragments exhibits height structures on a continuum. They correspond to N+ and N fragments ejected in the c.m. frame with kinetic energies W of 4.75, 6.4, 6.8 and 8.1 eV and they are interpreted as transitions into excited states of N2+ lying at more than 30 eV above the ground state of N2. The experimental W distribution extending over 12 eV is compared to distributions calculated using the model of vertical Franck—Condon electronic excitation with different assumptions for the initial and final states. 相似文献

Measurement of collision-induced dissociation rates for tantalum oxide ions in a quadrupole ion trap
Duckworth DC Goeringer DE McLuckey SA 《Journal of the American Society for Mass Spectrometry》2000,11(12):1072-1078
A study of factors influencing the collision-induced dissociation (CID) rate of strongly bound diatomic ions effected via resonance excitation in a quadrupole ion trap is presented. From these studies, an approach to measuring the CID rates is described wherein product ion recovery is optimized and the effect of competitive processes (e.g., parent ion ejection and product ion reactions) on rate measurements are prevented from influencing rate measurements. Tantalum oxide ions (dissociation ENERGY = 8.2 eV), used as a model system, were formed via reactions of glow discharge generated Ta+ ions with residual gases in the ion trap. Neon (0.5 mtorr) was found to be a more favorable target gas for the dissociation of TaO+ than He and Ar, but collisional activation of TaO+ ions in neon during ion isolation by mass selective instability necessitated ion cooling prior to dissociation. A 25 ms delay time at qz = 0.2 allowed for kinetic cooling of stored TaO+ ions and enabled precise dissociation rate measurements to be made. CID of TaO+ was determined to be most efficient at qz = 0.67 (226 kHz for m/z 197). Suitable resonance excitation voltages and times ranged from 0.56 to 1.2 Vp-p and 1 to 68 ms, respectively. Under these conditions, measurement of rates approaching 80 s−1 for the dissociation of TaO+ could be made without significant complications associated with competing processes, such as ion ejection. 相似文献

Cluster ions such as [Cat+X+nM](+) (n = 0-4); [Cat-H+nM](+) (n = 1-3); and [2(Cat-H)+X+nM](+) (n = 0-2), where Cat, X, and M are the dication, anion, and neutral salt (CatX(2)), respectively, are observed in electrospray ionization (ESI) mass spectrometry of relatively concentrated solutions of diquat and paraquat. Collision-induced dissociation (CID) reactions of the clusters were observed by tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), including deprotonation to form [Cat-H](+), one-electron reduction of the dication to form Cat(+.), demethylation of the paraquat cation to form [Cat-CH(3)](+), and loss of neutral salt to produce smaller clusters. The difference in acidity and reduction power between diquat and paraquat, evaluated by thermodynamical estimates, can rationalize the different fractional yields of even-electron ([Cat-H](+) and its clusters) and odd-electron (mostly Cat(+)) ions in ESI mass spectra of these pesticides.

Fragmentation of some electrospray-generated complex ions, [63CuII(amine)M].2+, where M is an enkephalin derivative, produces the radical cation of the peptide, M.+. This ion has only been observed when M contains a tyrosyl or tryptophanyl residue plus a basic residue, typically arginyl or lysyl. A typical viable amine is diethylenetriamine. Collision-induced dissociation (CID) of the M.+ ion yields a prominent [M - 106].+ product ion for tyrosine-containing peptides, and a prominent [M - 129].+ ion for a tryptophan-containing peptide. These fragment ions are formed as a result of elimination of the tyrosyl and tryptophanyl side chains. Dissociation of these ions, in turn, produces second generation product ions, many of which are typically absent in the fragmentation of protonated peptide ions. Structures for some of these unusual ions are proposed. 相似文献

y- and b-type fragment ions produced in the collisional dissociation of arginine-terminated peptide ions are photodissociated with 157-nm light in a linear trap. y-type ions are shown to have the same structure as that of intact peptides of the same sequence with the ionizing proton located at the most basic residue(s). For generic b-type ions, the ionizing proton is shown to be sequestered at the N-terminal arginine, which is consistent with the proposed oxazolone structure. 相似文献

The effect that charge state has on the collision-induced dissociation (CID) of peptide ions is examined in detail for several representative peptides under high-energy collision conditions. The CID spectra of singly and doubly charged precursor ions (generated by fast-atom bombardment and electrospray ionization, respectively) are compared for several peptides with similar primary structure. It is shown that for peptides that contain highly basic amino acids, the dissociation of doubly charged ions is strongly influenced by the position of these residues within the peptide and the general observations reported concerning the dissociation of singly charged ions can be extended to precursors with higher charge states. Based on the dissociation behavior of the doubly charged ions of these peptides, it is demonstrated that two charges can reside in close proximity in the precursor ions, overcoming possible repulsion effects, when favored by a high concentration of basic sites. In addition)’ this work illustrates that in the case of doubly charged ions..the charge state of some fragment ions can be determined directly from the mass-to-charge ratio assignments of the CID spectrum. 相似文献

Thermochemistry determined from careful analysis of the energy dependence of cross sections for collision-induced dissociation (CID) reactions has primarily come from the primary dissociation channel. Higher order dissociations generally have thresholds measured to be higher than the thermodynamic limit because of the unknown internal and kinetic energy distributions of the primary products. A model that utilizes statistical theories for energy-dependent unimolecular decomposition to estimate these energy distributions is proposed in this paper. This permits a straightforward modeling of the cross sections for both primary and secondary dissociation channels. The model developed here is used to analyze data for K+(NH3)x, x=2-5, complexes, chosen because the thermochemistry previously determined by threshold CID studies agrees well with values from theory and equilibrium high pressure mass spectrometry. The model is found to reproduce the cross sections with high fidelity and the threshold values for secondary processes are found to be in excellent agreement with literature values. Furthermore, relative thresholds for higher order dissociation processes appear to provide accurate thermodynamic information as well. 相似文献

Electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry has the potential to be widely used as a tool for polymer structural characterization. However, the backbones or molecular chains of many industrial polymers including functional polyglycols are often difficult to dissociate in tandem mass spectrometers using low energy collision-induced dissociation (CID). We present a method that uses Li+ and transition metal ions such as Ag+ as the cationization reagents for electrospray ionization in an ion trap mass spectrometer. It is shown that lithium and transition metal polyglycol adduct ions can be readily fragmented with low energy CID. Comparative results from different cationization reagents in their abilities of producing both MS spectra and CID spectra are shown. This method opens the possibility of using conventional and readily available low energy CID tandem MS to study polyglycol structures. 相似文献
