Abstract
Titania (TiO2) nanoparticles are active photocatalysts, and isoprene (C5H8) is a biogenic volatile organic compound that contributes crucially to global particulate matter generation. Herein, the direct photooxidation of isoprene by titanium oxide cluster anions with dimensions up to a nanosize by both ultraviolet (UV) and visible (Vis) light excitations has been successfully identified through mass spectrometric experiments combined with quantum chemistry calculations. The potential role of "dry" titania in atmospheric isoprene oxidation has been revealed, and a clear picture of the photooxidation mechanism on titanium oxide nanoparticles has been provided explicitly at the molecular level. The adsorption of isoprene on the atomic oxygen radicals (O•-) of titanium oxide clusters leads to the formation of the crucial interfacial state (IS) within the band gap of titanium oxides. This IS is demonstrated to be the significant factor in delivering the electron from the π orbital of C5H8 to the Ti3d orbital in the photooxidation process (C5H8 + Ti4+-O•- → C5H8O + Ti3+) and creating photoactivity in the Vis region. It is revealed that after the photogeneration of the O•- radicals by UV excitation on the TiO2 particle surface, the subsequent reactions can be induced by Vis excitation through the IS. This multicolor strategy in both the UV and Vis regions can enhance the efficiency of solar energy harvesting and improve the product yield of the photocatalysis on TiO2 nanoparticles. New insights have been provided into both the atmospheric chemistry of isoprene and the photochemistry of TiO2 nanoparticles.

Abstract
Reactions of Au+(1S,3D) and AuX+ with CH3X (X = I and Br) were performed in the gas phase by utilizing a selected-ion drift cell reactor. These experiments were done at room temperature as well as reduced temperature (∼200 K) at a total pressure of 3.5 Torr in helium. Rate coefficients, product sequencing, and branching fractions were obtained for all reactions to evaluate reaction efficiencies and higher-order processes. Reactions of both Au+ states proceed with moderate efficiencies as compared to the average dipole orientation model with these neutral substrates. Results from this work revealed that, dependent on the reacting partner, Au+(1S) exhibits, among others, halogen abstraction, HX elimination, and association. By comparison, Au+(3D) participates primarily in charge transfer and halogen abstraction. Dependent on the halogen ligand, AuX+ ions induce several processes, including association, charge transfer, halogen loss, and halogen substitution. AuI+ reacting with CH3Br resulted in association exclusively, whereas the AuI+/CH3I and AuBr+/CH3Br systems exhibited halogen loss as the dominant process. By contrast, all possible bimolecular pathways occurred in the reaction of AuBr+ with CH3I. Observed products indicate that displacement of bromine by iodine on gold is favored in ionic products, consistent with the thermochemical preference for formation of the Au+-I bond. All AuX+ reactions proceed at maximum efficiency. Potential energy surfaces calculated at the B3LYP/def2-TZVPP level of theory for the AuX+ reactions are in good agreement with the available thermochemistry for these species and with previously calculated structures and energetics. Experimental and computational results are consistent with a mechanism for the AuX+/CH3Y systems where bimolecular products occur either via direct loss of the halogen originally on Au or via a common intermediate resulting from methyl migration in which the Au center is three-coordinate.

Abstract
The products of methane dehydrogenation by gas‐phase Ta4+ clusters are structurally characterized using infrared multiple photon dissociation (IRMPD) spectroscopy in conjunction with quantum chemical calculations. The obtained spectra of [4Ta,C,2H]+ reveal a dominance of vibrational bands of a H2Ta4C+ carbide dihydride structure over those indicative for a HTa4CH+ carbyne hydride one, as is unambiguously verified by studies employing various methane isotopologues. Because methane dehydrogenation by metal cations M+ typically leads to the formation of either MCH2+ carbene or HMCH+ carbyne hydride structures, the observation of a H2MC+ carbide dihydride structure implies that it is imperative to consider this often‐neglected class of carbonaceous intermediates in the reaction of metals with hydrocarbons.

Abstract
Iron(IV)-oxo intermediates in nature contain two unpaired electrons in the Fe-O antibonding orbitals, which are thought to contribute to their high reactivity. To challenge this hypothesis, we designed and synthesized closed-shell singlet iron(IV) oxo complex [(quinisox)Fe(O)]+ (1+ ; quinisox-H=(N-(2-(2-isoxazoline-3-yl)phenyl)quinoline-8-carboxamide). We identified the quinisox ligand by DFT computational screening out of over 450 candidates. After the ligand synthesis, we detected 1+ in the gas phase and confirmed its spin state by visible and infrared photodissociation spectroscopy (IRPD). The Fe-O stretching frequency in 1+ is 960.5 cm-1 , consistent with an Fe-O triple bond, which was also confirmed by multireference calculations. The unprecedented bond strength is accompanied by high gas-phase reactivity of 1+ in oxygen atom transfer (OAT) and in proton-coupled electron transfer reactions. This challenges the current view of the spin-state driven reactivity of the Fe-O complexes.

Abstract
The heterogeneous oxidation of isoprene (C5H8) by metal-oxide particles, such as the typical mineral aerosols TiO2, plays an important role in the isoprene atmospheric chemistry. However, the underlying mechanism of C5H8 oxidation remains elusive owing to the complexities of aerosol surfaces and reaction channels. Herein, we report the gas-phase reactions of TixOy+ (x = 1-7, y = 1-14) cations with isoprene by using mass spectrometry and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Five types of reaction channels were observed: association, hydrogen atom transfer (HAT), C-C bond cleavage, combined oxygen atom transfer (OAT) and HAT and combined OAT and C-C bond cleavage. It is noteworthy that formaldehyde is known as the major oxidation product of isoprene/hydroxyl radicals in the atmosphere. In addition, CO has not been observed in the reactions of isoprene with gas-phase ions. Therefore, the reaction mechanisms of CH2O and CO generation observed in Ti2O5+/C5H8 and Ti4O8+/C5H8 systems were further investigated by DFT calculations, and the calculated results are in agreement with the experimental observations. In these two reactions, both Ti and O atoms can be the adsorption sites for C5H8. The reaction channels and mechanistic information gained in these gas-phase model reactions may offer fundamental insights relevant to the corresponding oxidation processes over titanium oxide aerosols in the atmosphere.

Abstract
A laser vaporization cluster source is coupled to the Fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometer beamline of the free-electron laser for intracavity experiments. Gas phase metal ions and their oxides (VO2 +, NbO2 +, and TaO2 +) are formed and spectroscopically characterized using IR multiple-photon dissociation spectroscopy via loss of atomic oxygen and overcoming fragmentation energies of 3 eV-6 eV. The signal is observed for all MO2 + fundamental modes: the symmetric and anti-symmetric ν1 and ν3 stretch modes in the 900 cm-1-1000 cm-1 range and the ν2 bending mode in the 300 cm-1-450 cm-1 range. A remarkable substructure is observed for the bending vibration, which is at least partly due to the rovibrational substructure.

Abstract
Photoassisted steam reforming and dry (CO2 ) reforming of methane (SRM and DRM) at room temperature with high syngas selectivity have been achieved in the gas-phase catalysis for the first time. The catalysts used are bimetallic rhodium-vanadium oxide cluster anions of Rh2 VO1-3 - . Both the oxidation of methane and reduction of H2 O/CO2 can take place efficiently in the dark while the pivotal step to govern syngas selectivity is photo-excitation of the reaction intermediates Rh2 VO2,3 CH2 - to specific electronically excited states that can selectively produce CO and H2 . Electronic excitation over Rh2 VO2,3 CH2 - to control the syngas selectivity is further confirmed from the comparison with the thermal excitation of Rh2 VO2,3 CH2 - , which leads to diversity of products. The atomic-level mechanism obtained from the well-controlled cluster reactions provides insight into the process of selective syngas production from the photocatalytic SRM and DRM reactions over supported metal oxide catalysts.

Abstract
Herein, the geometry, electronic structure, Fe-ligand bonding nature and simulated IR spectrum of α-Keggin, lacunary Keggin, iron(ii/iii)-substituted and the important oxidized high-valent iron derivatives of Keggin type polyoxometalates have been studied using the density functional theory (DFT/OPTX-PBE) method and natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis. The effects of different Fe oxidation states (ii-vi) and H2O/OH-/O2- ligand interactions have been addressed concerning their geometry and electronic structures. It has been revealed that the d-atomic orbitals of Fe and 2p orbitals of polyoxometalate's oxygen-atoms contribute in ligand binding. Compared with other high valent species, the considered polyoxometalate system of [PW11O39(FeVO)]4-, possesses a high reactivity for oxygen transfer.

Abstract
The PPh3 ligands in the heterodinuclear AuPt complex [(Ph3P)AuPt(PPh3)3][BAr4F] (BAr4F = tetrakis[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]borate) exhibit a high fluxionality on the AuPt core. Fast intramolecular and slow intermolecular processes for the reversible exchange of the PPh3 ligands have been identified. When [(Ph3P)AuPt(PPh3)3][BAr4F] is heated in solution, the formation of benzene is observed, and a trinuclear, cationic AuPt2 complex is generated. This process is preceded by reversible phenyl-group exchange between the PPh3 ligands present in the reaction mixture as elucidated by deuterium-labeling studies. Both the elimination of benzene and the preceding reversible phenyl-group exchange have originally been observed in mass-spectrometry-based CID experiments (CID = Collision-Induced Dissociation). While CID of mass-selected [Au,Pt,(PPh3)4]+ results exclusively in the loss of PPh3, the resulting cation [Au,Pt,(PPh3)3]+ selectively eliminates C6H6. Thus, the dissociation of a PPh3 ligand from [Au,Pt,(PPh3)3]+ is energetically not able to compete with processes which result in C-H- and C-P-bond cleavage. In both media, the heterobimetallic nature of the employed complexes is the key for the observed reactivity. Only the intimate interplay of the gas-phase investigations, studies in solution, and thorough DFT computations allowed for the elucidation of the mechanistic details of the reactivity of [(Ph3P)AuPt(PPh3)3][BAr4F].

Abstract
The kinetics of AlO+ + CH4 are studied from 300-500 K using a selected-ion flow tube. At all temperatures the reaction proceeds near the Langevin-Gioumousis-Stevenson collision rate with two product channels: hydrogen atom abstraction (AlOH+ + CH3, 86 ± 5%) and methanol formation (Al+ + CH3OH, 14 ± 5%). Density functional calculations show the key Al-CH3OH+ intermediate is formed barrierlessly via a mechanism unique to aluminum, avoiding the rate-limiting step common to other MO+. The reaction of Al2O3+ + CH4 follows a similar mechanism to that for AlO+ through to the key intermediate; however, the conversion to methanol occurs only for AlO+ due to favorable energetics attributed to a weaker Al+-CH3OH bond. Importantly, that bond strength may be tuned independent of competing product channels by altering the acidity of the Al with electron-withdrawing or donating groups, indicating a key design criteria to develop a real world Al-atom catalyst.

Abstract
High-valent metal-oxo species with multiply-bonded M-O groups have been proposed as key intermediates in many biological and abiological catalytic oxidation reactions. These intermediates are implicated as active oxidants in alkane hydroxylation, olefin epoxidation and other oxidation reactions. For example, [FeivO(porphyrinato•-)]+ cofactors bearing π-radical porphyrinato•- ligands oxidize organic substrates in cytochrome P450 enzymes, which are common to many life forms. Likewise, high-valent Mn-oxo species are active for H2O oxidation in photosystem II. The chemistry of these native reactive species has inspired chemists to prepare highly oxidized transition-metal complexes as functional mimics. Although many synthetic Fe-O and Mn-O complexes now exist, the analogous oxo complexes of the late transition metals (groups 9-11) are rare. Indeed, late-transition-metal-oxo complexes of tetragonal (fourfold) symmetry should be electronically unstable, a rule commonly referred to as the 'oxo wall'. A few late metal-oxos have been prepared by targeting other symmetries or unusual spin states. These complexes have been studied using spectroscopic and theoretical methods. This Review describes mononuclear non-haem Fe-O and Mn-O species, the nature of the oxo wall and recent advances in the preparation of oxo complexes of Co, Ni and Cu beyond the oxo wall.

Abstract
A Ce atom reaction with propene is carried out in a pulsed laser vaporization molecule beam source. Several Ce-hydrocarbon species formed by the C-H and C-C bond activation of propene are observed by time-of-flight mass spectrometry, and Ce(C3Hn) (n = 4 and 6) are characterized by mass-analyzed threshold ionization (MATI) spectroscopy and density functional theory, multiconfiguration, and relativistic quantum chemical calculations. The MATI spectrum of each species consists of two vibronic band systems, each with several vibronic bands. Ce(C3H6) is identified as an inserted species with Ce inserting into an allylic C-H bond of propene and Ce(C3H4) as a metallocycle through 1,2-vinylic dehydrogenation. Both species have a Cs structure with the Ce 4f16s1 ground valence electron configuration in the neutral molecule and the Ce 4f1 configuration in the singly charged ion. The two vibronic band systems observed for each species are attributed to the ionization of two pairs of the lowest spin-orbit coupled states with each pair being nearly degenerate.

Abstract
The effect of an external electric field (EF) on the methane adsorption and its activation on iron-embedded graphene (Fe-GPs) are investigated by using the M06-L density functional method. The EF is applied in the perpendicular direction to the graphene in the range of -0.015 to +0.015 a.u. with the interval of 0.005 a.u. The effects of EF on the adsorption, transition state and product complexes of the methane activation reaction are revealed. The binding energies of methane on Fe site in Fe-GPs are increased from -12.9 to -15.3, -18.1 and -21.5 kcal/mol for the negative EF of -0.005, -0.010 and -0.015, respectively. By applying positive EF, the activation barriers for methane activation are reduced in range of 3-8 kcal/mol (around 12-31%) and the reaction energies are more exothermic. The positive EF kinetically favors the reaction compared to the system without EF. The adsorption and activation of methane on Fe-GPs can be easily tuned by adjusting the external electric field for various applications. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
In the present paper, the mechanisms of N2O reduction by H2 were systemically examined over various polyoxometalate-supported single-atom catalysts (SACs) M1/PTA (M = Fe, Co, Mn, Ru, Rh, Os, Ir, and Pt; PTA = [PW12O40]3-) by means of density functional theory calculations. Among these M1/PTA SACs, Os1/PTA SAC possesses high activity for N2O reduction by H2 with a relatively low rate-determining barrier. The favorable catalytic pathway involves the first and second N2O decomposition over the Os1/PTA SAC and hydrogenation of the key species after the second N2O decomposition. Molecular geometry and electronic structure analyses along the favorable reaction pathway indicate that a strong charge-transfer cooperative effect of metal and support effectively improves the catalytic activity of Os1/PTA SAC. The isolated Os atom not only plays the role of adsorption and activation of the N2O molecule but also works as an electron transfer medium in the whole reaction process. Meanwhile, the PTA support with very high redox stability has also been proven to be capable of transporting the electron to promote the whole reaction. We expect that our computation results can provide ideas for designing new SACs for N2O reduction by using H2 selective catalytic reduction technology.

Abstract
The present work explores the structure of the gold carbene cation, AuCH2+, using infrared multiple photon dissociation action spectroscopy and density functional theory (DFT). Unlike several other 5d transition-metal cations (M+ = Ta+, W+, Os+, Ir+, and Pt+) that react with methane by dehydrogenation to form MCH2+ species, gold cations are unreactive with methane at thermal energies. Instead, the metal carbene is formed by reacting atomic gold cations formed in a laser ablation source with ethylene oxide (cC2H4O) pulsed into a reaction channel downstream. The resulting [Au,C,2H]+ product photofragmented by loss of H2 as induced by radiation provided by the free-electron laser for intracavity experiments in the 300-1800 cm-1 range. Comparison of the experimental spectrum, obtained by monitoring the appearance of AuC+, and DFT calculated spectra leads to the identification of the ground-state carbene, AuCH2+ (1A1), as the species formed, as previously postulated theoretically. Unlike the covalent double bonds formed by the lighter, open-shell 5d transition metals, the closed-shell Au+ (1S, 5d10) atom binds to methylene by donation of a pair of electrons from CH2(1A1) into the empty 6s orbital of gold coupled with π back-bonding, i.e., dative bonding, as explored computationally. Contributions to the AuC+ appearance spectrum from larger complexes are also considered, and H2CAu+(c-C2H4O) seems likely to contribute one band observed.

Abstract
Ammonia synthesis by using water as a hydrogen source is a challenging task. Laser-ablation-generated ScNH+ cations have been mass-selected using a quadrupole mass filter and reacted with H2O in a linear ion trap reactor under thermal collision conditions. Through mass spectrometry in conjunction with density functional theory calculations, we found that ammonia is released as the product in the reaction of ScNH+ with H2O, and this reaction is with high efficiency and selectivity, and the rate constant for the reaction is (1.14 ± 0.23) × 10-10 cm3 molecule-1 s-1, corresponding to the reaction efficiency of 15%. Metal imido complexes (*MNH) are one of the important intermediates in the currently reported NH3 synthetic reactions. The gas-phase ScNH+ cation can be a simplified model of *MNH over catalysts of NH3 synthesis, and the facile proton transfer mechanism obtained in this model system may offer fundamental mechanistic insights into how to design catalysts for ammonia production by using water as the hydrogen source under ambient conditions.

Abstract
Visible-light mediated aerobic dehydrogenation of N-heterocyclic compounds is a reaction with enormous potential for application. Herein, we report the first complete aerobic dehydrogenation pathway to large-scale production of isoquinolines. The discovery of this visible light photoredox reaction was enabled through the combination of mathematical simulations and real-time quantitative mass spectrometry screening. The theoretical calculations showed that hyper-conjugation, the main underlying factor hindering the aerobic oxidation of tetrahydroisoquinolines, is relieved both by π- and σ-donating substituents. This mechanistic insight provided a novel photocatalytic route based on N-substituted auxiliaries that facilitated the conversion of tetrahydroisoquinolines into the corresponding isoquinolines in just three simple steps (yield 71.7% in bulk-solution phase), using unmodified Ru(bpy)3Cl2 photocatalyst, sun energy, atmospheric O2, and at ambient temperature.

Abstract
Terminal oxo complexes of late transition metals are frequently proposed reactive intermediates. However, they are scarcely known beyond Group 8. Using mass spectrometry, we prepared and characterized two such complexes: [(N4Py)CoIII (O)]+ (1) and [(N4Py)CoIV (O)]2+ (2). Infrared photodissociation spectroscopy revealed that the Co-O bond in 1 is rather strong, in accordance with its lack of chemical reactivity. On the contrary, 2 has a very weak Co-O bond characterized by a stretching frequency of ≤659 cm-1 . Accordingly, 2 can abstract hydrogen atoms from non-activated secondary alkanes. Previously, this reactivity has only been observed in the gas phase for small, coordinatively unsaturated metal complexes. Multireference ab-initio calculations suggest that 2, formally a cobalt(IV)-oxo complex, is best described as cobalt(III)-oxyl. Our results provide important data on changes to metal-oxo bonding behind the oxo wall and show that cobalt-oxo complexes are promising targets for developing highly active C-H oxidation catalysts.

Abstract
Mass spectrometric analysis of the anionic products of interaction between platinum atomic anions, Pt- , and methane, CH4 and CD4 , in a collision cell shows the preferred generation of [PtCH4 ]- and [PtCD4 ]- complexes and a low tendency toward dehydrogenation. [PtCH4 ]- is shown to be H-Pt-CH3 - by a synergy between anion photoelectron spectroscopy and quantum chemical calculations, implying the rupture of a single C-H bond. The calculated reaction pathway accounts for the observed selective activation of methane by Pt- . This study presents the first example of methane activation by a single atomic anion.

Abstract
Abstract
The thermal reaction of diatomic gold boride cation AuB+ with methane has been studied by using state-of-the-art mass spectrometry in conjunction with density functional theory calculations. The AuB+ ion can activate a methane molecule to produce exclusively the free hydrogen atom, an important intermediate in hydrocarbon transformation. This result is different from the reactivity of AuC+ and CuB+ counterparts with methane in previous studies. The AuC+ cation mainly transforms methane into ethylene. The CuB+ reaction system principally generates the free hydrogen atoms, but it also gives rise a portion of ethylene-like product H2B−CH2. The B atom of AuB+ is the active site to activate methane. The strong relativistic effect on gold plays an important role for the product selectivity. The mechanistic insights obtained from this study provide guidance for rational design of active sites with high product selectivity toward methane activation.

Abstract
Thermal gas-phase reactions of the ruthenium-oxide clusters [RuOx ]+ (x=1-3) with methane and dihydrogen have been explored by using FT-ICR mass spectrometry complemented by high-level quantum chemical calculations. For methane activation, as compared to the previously studied [RuO]+ /CH4 couple, the higher oxidized Ru systems give rise to completely different product distributions. [RuO2 ]+ brings about the generations of [Ru,O,C,H2 ]+ /H2 O, [Ru,O,C]+ /H2 /H2 O, and [Ru,O,H2 ]+ /CH2 O, whereas [RuO3 ]+ exhibits a higher selectivity and efficiency in producing formaldehyde and syngas (CO+H2 ). Regarding the reactions with H2 , as compared to CH4 , both [RuO]+ and [RuO2 ]+ react similarly inefficiently with oxygen-atom transfer being the main reaction channel; in contrast, [RuO3 ]+ is inert toward dihydrogen. Theoretical analysis reveals that the reduction of the metal center drives the overall oxidation of methane, whereas the back-bonding orbital interactions between the cluster ions and dihydrogen control the H-H bond activation. Furthermore, the reactivity patterns of [RuOx ]+ (x=1-3) with CH4 and H2 have been compared with the previously reported results of Group 8 analogues [OsOx ]+ /CH4 /H2 (x=1-3) and the [FeO]+ /H2 system. The electronic origins for their distinctly different reaction behaviors have been addressed.

Abstract
Cryogenic ion trap vibrational spectroscopy paired with quantum chemistry currently represents the most generally applicable approach for the structural investigation of gaseous cluster ions that are not amenable to direct absorption spectroscopy. Here, we give an overview of the most popular variants of infrared action spectroscopy and describe the advantages of using cryogenic ion traps in combination with messenger tagging and vibrational predissociation spectroscopy. We then highlight a few recent studies that apply this technique to identify highly reactive ionic intermediates and to characterize their reactive sites. We conclude by commenting on future challenges and potential developments in the field.

Abstract
The mass-selected copper oxide cluster cations Cu2O2+ are successfully prepared by laser ablation and reacted with benzene in a linear ion trap reactor. The cluster reaction is characterized by reflectron mass spectrometry in conjunction with density functional theory calculations. Four types of reaction channels are observed: (1) Cu2OH+ + C6H5O˙, (2) Cu2C6H6+ + O2, (3) Cu(C6H6)2+ + Cu and (4) Cu2O2C6H6+, in which the first one is the major product. Observation of the products Cu2OH+ indicates that oxygen atom transfer (OAT) accompanying hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) occurs, and the oxygen-centered radical (O-˙) in Cu2O2+ is crucial to the cleavages of C-H and Cu-O bonds. It is interesting that HAT and OAT occur in a single reaction channel to form C6H5O˙, which has not been reported in the reactions of gas-phase ions with benzene. The calculated results are in agreement with the experimental observations, and no two-state reactivity scenario is present in the potential energy surface of channel 1. This work can provide useful insights into the nature of active sites over copper oxides and reaction mechanisms in the corresponding heterogeneous reactions.
