Die Massenspektren von Pd6Cl12, Pt6Cl12 und PdnPt6−nCl12

Mass Spectra of Pd₆Cl₁₂, Pt₆Cl₁₂, and Pd_nPt_6?nCl₁₂ Pd₆Cl₁₂, and Pt₆Cl₁₂ and both together are volatilised in a mass spectrometer. 3 Cl and 1 Pd have approximately the same mass, therefore isotopes of Pd and Pt are used (¹⁰⁸Pd, ₁₉₄Pt). With an ionisation energy of 50 eV part of the vapourised molecules is strongly fragmented. With a lower ionisation energy the molecule ions Pd₆Cl₁₂⁺, Pt₆Cl₁₂⁺ and Pd_nPt_6?nCl₁₂⁺ are only observed.
