Sequence-specific fragmentation of benzyloxycarbonyl dipeptides by resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization

The mechanism of fragment ion formation in resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI) of benzyloxycarbonyl (CBZ)-derivitized dipeptides is presented. At 266 nm, the entire multiphoton process can be thought of as a two-part scheme where ionization occurs by resonant two-photon ionization followed by photodissociation of the created ions. When the energy of two photons exceeds the molecular ionization energy by a significant amount, REMPI has the advantage of producing both parent ions and low appearance energy fragments in large amounts. For CBZ dipeptides, resonant two-photon ionization at 266 nm produces parent ions as well as A type sequence ions with high abundance. On the other hand, a three-photon process (resonant two-photon ionization followed by parent ion photodissociation) forms sequence-related ions which also involve complex fragmentations of the CBZ chromophore. These results are compared to mass spectra obtained by other ionization/dissociation methods and to REMPI mass spectra of related compounds. Factors related to molecular structure elucidation based upon REMPI mass spectra are discussed. Enhanced isomer distinction is demonstrated for CBZ-leu-ala-OCH₃ and CBZ-ile-ala-OCH₃ based upon REMPI fragmentation.     

Interaction mechanism of some alkyl iodides with femtosecond laser pulses

The interaction of 1-iodopropane, 2-iodopropane, 1-iodobutane, 2-iodobutane, and 1-iodopentane with (5 x 10(13-)5 x 10(15) W/cm2) femtosecond laser fields is studied by means of a time-of-flight mass spectrometer. It is found that multiphoton ionization (MPI) and field ionization (FI) processes are involved in the molecular ionization. The contribution of these processes can be distinguished using the peak profile of the ions in the mass spectra. Thus, from the mass spectra of 2-iodoropane and 2-iodobutane, it is concluded that MPI processes are taking place even for Keldysh parameter values gamma approximately 0.3. The field ionization process depends on the characteristics of the molecular binding potential well and leads to an asymmetric charge distribution of the transient multiply charged parent ions. In the case of 1-iodobutane, the MPI processes lead to a stable doubly charged parent ion production with a laser intensity threshold higher than that found for I2+ ions. In addition, the isomers studied exhibit distinct differences in their mass spectra and their origin is discussed in detail.     

Fragmentation dynamics of methane by few-cycle femtosecond laser pulses

The fragmentation pattern of CH4 was experimentally studied at an intensity of approximately 10(14) W/cm2 with laser durations varying from 8 to 110 fs. When the laser duration was 8 fs, only the primarily fragmental CH3+ ion was observed in addition to the parent CH4+ ion. When the laser duration was 30 fs, small fragmental CH2+ and H+ ions appeared. When the laser duration was 110 fs, some doubly charged ions were also observed in addition to the abundant singly charged ions. The large mass spectra difference demonstrated that the pulse duration had a strong effect on the fragmentation of the parent ion produced in the single ionization. The effect of laser intensity on the fragmentation of CH4+ was also studied for few-cycle femtosecond laser pulses. The results demonstrated that the first-return recollision between the rescattered electron and the parent ion played a significant role in the fragmentation dynamics of the parent ion. Depending on the ion-electron impact energy, the recollision excited the parent ion to a dissociated state or doubly charged state. The experimentally observed singly charged fragmental ions resulted from the recollision-induced dissociation of CH4+ or the Coulomb explosion of CH(4)2+.     

Vibrational and photoionization spectroscopy of biomolecules: aliphatic amino acid structures

The aliphatic amino acids glycine, valine, leucine, and isoleucine are thermally placed into the gas phase and expanded into a vacuum system for access by time of flight mass spectroscopy and infrared (IR) spectroscopy in the energy range of 2500-4000 cm(-1) (CH, NH, OH, and stretching vibrations). The isolated neutral amino acids are ionized by a single photon of 10.5 eV energy (118 nm), which exceeds by less than 2 eV their reported ionization thresholds. As has been reported for many hydrogen bonded acid-base systems (e.g., water, ammonia, alcohol, acid clusters, and acid molecules), the amino acids undergo a structural rearrangement in the ion state (e.g., in simplest form, a proton transfer) that imparts sufficient excess vibrational energy to the ion to completely fragment it. No parent ions are observed. If the neutral ground state amino acids are exposed to IR radiation prior to ionization, an IR spectrum of the individual isomers for each amino acid can be determined by observation of the ion intensity of the different fragment mass channels. Both the IR spectrum and fragmentation patterns for individual isomers can be qualitatively identified and related to a particular isomer in each instance. Thus, each fragment ion detected presents an IR spectrum of its particular parent amino acid isomer. In some instances, the absorption of IR radiation by the neutral amino acid parent isomer increases a particular fragmentation mass channel intensity, while other fragmentation mass channel intensities decrease. This phenomenon can be rationalized by considering that with added energy in the molecule, the fragmentation channel populations can be modulated by the added vibrational energy in the rearranged ions. This observation also suggests that the IR absorption does not induce isomerization in the ground electronic state of these amino acids. These data are consistent with theoretical predictions for isolated amino acid secondary structures and can be related to previous IR spectra of amino acid conformers.     

二乙胺分子的多光子电离："梯转换"过程

The multiphoton ionization (MPI) of diethylamine is first reported in this paper. A time-of-flight mass spectrometer was used in the experiment under collision-free condition. MPI mass spectra were measured in the region of 464 ～486 nm using a dye laser and at double frequency of a Nd:YAG laser. Molecular ion was created through resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI) via Rydberg states. Fragment, ion distribution was formed through “ladder switching” process. The experimental demonstration of the process is reported for the first time by the discussion of dependence of ion relative, abundance on laser wavelength and energy. The competition between further up-pumping and fragmentation of Parent ion also exists, and higher laser intensity favors the former.     

Collision induced decomposition of peptides. Choice of collision parameters

Collision-induced dissociation product ion spectra of a series of doubly charged tryptic peptide ions produced by electrospray ionization were obtained by triple-quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry. The sequence information content of the product ion spectra was explored as a function of collision energy and collision-cell gas pressure for parent ions with molecular masses ranging from 300 to 2000 u. The energy range (at a given pressure) in which the degree of fragmentation is acceptable was found to be narrow for parent ions of a given mass, and the optimal collision energy was observed to exhibit a strong linear correlation with parent ion mass. This observed correlation opens the way for on-line software-controled selection of optimal mass spectrometric conditions in the enzymatic digestion-liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometric strategy of amino acid sequencing of proteins.     

Effects of polarization of 1.4 microm femtosecond laser pulses on the formation and fragmentation of naphthalene molecular ions compared at the same effective ionization intensity

Naphthalene was ionized with 130 fs pulses of different polarizations at 1.4 microm. In contrast to the results of ionization by 0.8 microm pulses, fragmentation was dramatically suppressed and naphthalene molecular ions of up to 3+ were produced. The use of this simple model of ionization and large electron kinetic energy enabled us to study the electron-recollision-induced fragmentation and/or double ionization more precisely. The failure of the theoretical prediction of ion yield for the case of naphthalene prevented us from judging the electron recollision solely by a comparison with theoretical curves. Therefore, the effects of laser polarization on the ratios between differently charged states and between molecular and total ions were compared at the same effective (peak) intensity instead of average intensity. Comparison under the same effective intensity enabled us to identify the effects of ellipticity clearly. Evidence of the electron recollision was found in the doubly charged molecular ion formation but not in the fragmentation. The single-electron recollision event was not sufficient to induce fragmentation because of its low energy transfer efficiency. We concluded that the fragmentation originated in the unstable nature of the highly charged molecular ion itself and in the Coulomb explosion in the case of naphthalene.     

Multiphoton ionization mass spectroscopy of p-xylene at 193 and 248 nm

Multiphoton ionization (MPI) fragmentation pattern of p-xylene is investigated as a function of laser power at 193 and 248 nm. The mass pattern at 193 nm suggests the presence of two reaction sequences and the occurrence of drastic rearrangement in the parent ion and also in the superexcited xylene before fragmentation.     

Multi-photon ionization in the mass spectrometry of polyatomic molecules: Cross sections

Multi-photon ionization (MPI) with tunable visible/UV laser light is shown to be a sensitive tool for analysis of traces in gas mixtures when combined with a mass spectrometer. Mass spectra of six different organic molecules, obtained with low intensity laser light, are presented and demonstrate the facility of ionization without fragmentation (soft ionization) under proper experimental conditions. Quantitative values for the cross sections for both two photon steps are obtained from the measured intensity dependence and the absolute ion numbers. Such quantitative data help in the evaluation and definition of this new ionization technique in mass spectrometry. Efficiencies of ionization for some molecules are as high as 25% leading to 10⁶ ions in a single pulse from the dye laser (1 kW). Detectability as low as 2 parts in 10⁹ is thus predicted.
