Abstract
Transition metal-polyalanine complexes were analyzed in a high-capacity quadrupole ion trap after electrospray ionization. Polyalanines have no polar amino acid side chains to coordinate metal ions, thus allowing the effects metal ion interaction with the peptide backbone to be explored. Positive mode mass spectra produced from peptides mixed with salts of the first row transition metals Cr(III), Fe(II), Fe(III), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(I), and Cu(II) yield singly and doubly charged metallated ions. These precursor ions undergo collision-induced dissociation (CID) to give almost exclusively metallated N-terminal product ions whose types and relative abundances depend on the identity of the transition metal. For example, Cr(III)-cationized peptides yield CID spectra that are complex and have several neutral losses, whereas Fe(III)-cationized peptides dissociate to give intense non-metallated products. The addition of Cu(II) shows the most promise for sequencing. Spectra obtained from the CID of singly and doubly charged Cu-heptaalanine ions, [M + Cu - H](+) and [M + Cu](2+) , are complimentary and together provide cleavage at every residue and no neutral losses. (This contrasts with [M + H](+) of heptaalanine, where CID does not provide backbone ions to sequence the first three residues.) Transition metal cationization produces abundant metallated a-ions by CID, unlike protonated peptides that produce primarily b- and y-ions. The prominence of metallated a-ions is interesting because they do not always form from b-ions. Tandem mass spectrometry on metallated (Met = metal) a- and b-ions indicate that [b(n) + Met - H](2+) lose CO to form [a(n) + Met - H](2+), mimicking protonated structures. In contrast, [a(n) + Met - H](2+) eliminate an amino acid residue to form [a(n-1) + Met - H](2+), which may be useful in sequencing.

Abstract
Alkali metal cations easily form complexes with proteins in biological systems; understanding amino acid clusters with these cations can provide useful insight into their behaviors at the molecular level including diagnosis and therapy of related diseases. For the purpose of characterization of basic interaction between amino acids and alkali metal, each of the 20 naturally occurring amino acids were ionized in the presence of lithium, sodium and potassium cations by electrospray ionization, and the resulting product ions were analyzed. We focus our attention on the gas phase alkali metal ion-proton exchanged complexes in current study, specifically complexes with serine, threonine, asparagine and glutamine, which share characteristic pattern unlike other amino acids. All amino acids generated [M + H](+) and [M + Na](+) ions, where M stands for the neutral amino acid. Serine, threonine, asparagine and glutamine generated cluster ions of [nM - nH + (n + 1)Na](+) and [nM - (n - 1)H + (n - 1)Na + K](+) , where n = 1-7. While the (M - H + Li) and (M - H + K) species were not observed, the neutral (M - H + Na) species formed by proton-sodium cation exchange had a highly stable cyclic structure with ketone and amine ligand sites, suggesting that (M - H + Na) serves as a building block in cluster ion formation. Cluster ion intensity distributions of [nM - nH + (n + 1)Na](+) and [nM - (n - 1)H + (n - 1)Na + K](+) showed a magic number at n = 3 and 4, respectively. Extensive B3LYP-DFT quantum mechanical calculations were carried out to elucidate the geometry and energy of the cluster ions, and they provided a reasonable explanation for the stability and structure of the cluster ions.

Abstract
Incubation of the histidine-containing peptides (GH, HG, GGH, GHG, HGG) and methionine-containing peptides (GM, MG, GGM, GMG, MGG) with the platinum complexes [Pt(terpy)Cl](+) (A) and [Pt(dien)Cl](+) (B) followed by electrospray ionisation (ESI) led to a number of singly and doubly charged ternary platinum peptide complexes, including [Pt(L)M](2+) and [Pt(L)M-H](+) (where L = the ligand terpy or dien; M is a peptide). Each of the [Pt(L)M](2+) complexes was subjected to electron capture dissociation (ECD), collision-induced dissociation (CID) and electron-induced dissociation (EID), while each of the [Pt(L)M-H](+) complexes was subjected to CID and EID. Results from ECD suggest that the free electron is captured by the metal ion thus weakening the bonds to its ligands. In the case of the ligand terpy, which binds more strongly than dien, this weakening leads to the loss of the peptide. The minor products in the ECD spectra of [Pt(terpy)M](2+) complexes do show fragmentation along the peptide backbone, but the ions observed are of the a-, b-, and y-type. For the complexes with methionine-containing peptides, a marker ion, [Pt(L)SCH(3)](+), was found which is indicative of binding of Pt to the methionine side chain. For the histidine-containing peptides, an ion containing platinum, the auxiliary ligand, and the histidine imine was observed in many instances, thus indicating the binding of the histidine side chain to the metal, but other modes of Pt coordination (N-terminus) were also found to be competitive. These findings are consistent with a recent finding (Sze et al. J. Biol. Inorg. Chem. 2009; 14: 163) that Pt occupies the methionine-rich copper(I)-binding site rather than histidine-rich copper(II)-binding site in the CopC protein.

Abstract
Cationized uracil clusters were generated in the gas phase by electrospray ionization (ESI). Mass spectrometry experiments showed that with particular experimental conditions, decameric uracil clusters are magic number clusters. MS/MS experiments demonstrated that the structure of these decameric uracil clusters depends substantially on the size and the charge of the cation. On the basis of the ab initio and density functional theory (DFT) quantum chemistry calculations, structures for these decameric clusters were proposed. These structures are in agreement with the experimental mass spectra of modified nucleobases. Theoretical calculations showed that complexes experimentally observed using ESI-MS techniques, are not naturally the most stable in the gas phase.

Abstract
Six different anionic species (fluoride, chloride, bromide, iodide, nitrate, and acetate) are tested for their abilities to form anionic adducts with neutral oligosaccharides that are detectable by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. Fluoride and acetate cannot form anionic adducts with the oligosaccharides in significant yields. However, bromide, iodide, and nitrate anionic adducts consistently appear in higher abundances relative to [M - H](-), just like the highly stable chloride adducts. Post-source decay (PSD) decompositions of Br(-), I(-), and NO(3)(-) adducts of oligosaccharides provide no structural information, i.e., they yield the respective anions as the main product ions. However, determination of linkage types is achieved by analysis of structurally-informative diagnostic peaks offered by negative ion PSD spectra of chloride adducts of oligosaccharides, whereas the relative peak intensities of pairs of diagnostic fragment ions allow differentiation of anomeric configurations of glycosidic bonds. Thus, simultaneous identification of the linkage types and anomeric configurations of glycosidic bonds is achieved. Our data indicate that negative ion PSD fragmentation patterns of chloride adducts of oligosaccharides are mainly determined by the linkage types. Correlation may exist between the linkage positions and fragmentation mechanisms and/or steric requirements for both cross-ring and glycosidic bond fragmentations. PSD of the chloride adducts of saccharides containing a terminal Glcalpha1-2Fru linkage also yields chlorine-containing fragment ions which appear to be specifically diagnostic for a fructose linked at the 2-position on the reducing end. This also allows differentiation from saccharides with a 1-1 linked pyranose on the same position.

JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR MASS SPECTROMETRY 2008; 19:978-986.

Abstract
Divalent metal complexes of phosphocholines, [Metal(II)(L)(n)](2+) (where Metal=Cu(2+), Co(2+), Mg(2+), and Ca(2+), L=1,2-dihexanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine [6:0/6:0GPCho] and 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine [16:0/18:1GPCho] and n=2-5), were formed upon electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI/MS) of 8 mM solution of phosphocholine (L) with 4 mM metal salt (Metal). The electron capture dissociation (ECD) reactions of these [Metal(II)(L)(n)](2+) complexes were examined via Fourier-transform ion-cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry. A rich and complex chemistry was observed, including charge reduction and fragmentation involving losses of a methyl radical, trimethylamine, and the acyl chains. The predominant reaction channel was dependent on the size (n) of the complex, the metal and ligand used, and the size of the acyl chain. Thus charge reduction dominates the ECD spectra of the larger phosphocholine, 16:0/18:1GPCho, but is largely absent in the smaller 6:0/6:0GPCho. For complexes of 16:0/18:1GPCho, n=4-5, fragmentation from the head group mainly occurs via loss of the methyl radical and trimethylamine. At n=3, the relative abundance of fragments due to loss of acyl chain radicals increases. The abundances of ions arising from these radical losses increase further for the n=2 complexes, thereby providing information on the composition and position of the 16:0 and 18:1 acyl groups. Thus ECD of metal complexes provides structurally useful information on the phosphocholine, including the nature of the head group, the acyl chains, and the positions of the acyl chains.

Abstract
This review deals with copper complexes of a variety of organic and bioorganic molecules that have been produced as gas-phase ions by electrospray and other ionization methods and studied experimentally by mass spectrometry and theoretically by ab initio and density functional theory computations. Ternary complexes of Cu((II)) allow one to modify the oxidation state and coordination sphere of the copper ion and thus induce novel fragmentations that involve redox and radical-based reactions. Structure elucidation, distinction, and quantitation of leucine and isoleucine isomers in peptides, distinction of enantiomers in chiral compounds, and sensitive detection of antibiotics are some of the highlights of mass spectrometry of ternary copper complexes. Binary copper complexes are mainly represented by Cu((I)) species in which the copper ion displays the properties of a weak Lewis acid.

Abstract
The collision induced dissociation (CID) spectra of the divalent metal complexes of 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn- glycero-3-phosphocholine, [Metal(lI)(L)(2)](2+) (where metal = Cu(2+), Mg(2+) and Ca(2+), L = [16:0/18:1GPCho]), formed by electrospray ionization, reveal interesting metal dependant fragmentation chemistry. Six main classes of reaction are observed corresponding to: two competing carboxylate abstraction pathways (from the sn1 and sn2 positions); phosphate abstraction; competing losses of the two different carboxylic acids from the sn1 and sn2 positions; loss of a protonated ligand, [L + H](+). The relative ratios of the competing carboxylate abstraction reactions are dependant on the metal, with the Cu and Ca complexes favouring the abstraction of the larger carboxylate (18:1) and the Mg complex favoring the abstraction of the smaller carboxylate (16:0).

Abstract
The role that a metal ion can have in promoting disulfide bond cleavage has been assessed by surveying the tandem mass spectra of the following metal complexes of model peptides containing an intermolecular disulfide bond: [M--H+Cu(II)](+); [M--H+Cu(II)(bipy)](+); [M+Ag(I)](+); and [M+Au(I)(PMe(3))](+). In comparison to previously studied protonated peptides, these binary and ternary metal complexes generally yield more abundant S--S and/or C--S bond cleavage. In general, [M--H+Cu(II)](+) ions cleave the adjacent C--S bond more readily, while the [M+Au(I)(PMe(3))](+) ion cleaves the S--S bond more readily. The ternary metal complex [M--H+Cu(II)(bipy)](+), on the other hand, fragments by exclusive loss of the bipyridyl ligand for the larger model peptides studied. Of all coinage metal systems studied, Me(3)PAu(+) is superior in promoting disulfide bond cleavage.

Abstract
Nucleoside phosphoramidites are the most widely used building blocks in contemporary solid-phase synthesis of oligonucleotides. The accurate molecular weight measurements of such molecules, which are acid-labile compounds, may be easily determined by mass spectrometry using a matrix system, triethanolamine/NaCl, on a liquid secondary ion mass spectrometer (LSIMS) or fast-atom bombardment (FAB) MS equipped with a double-focusing mass spectrometer. The present method rapidly and easily measures the accurate molecular weights of various phosphoramidites as adduct ions [M+Na]+ with an average mass error smaller than 0.4 ppm, allowing determination of the formulas of the phosphoramidites in place of elemental analysis. Further, it was found that intensities of molecular-related ions could be enhanced to the highest degree by adjustment of the molar ratio of phosphoramidite and NaCl, fixing the amount of triethanolamine on LSIMS, making the present method a powerful tool for identification of phosphoramidites by mass spectrometry.

Abstract
The tandem mass spectra of the divalent metal ion (Mg2+, Ca2+, Sr2+, Ba2+, Mn2+, Ni2+, Co2+ and Zn2+) adducts of acetylated 1,2-trans-glycosyl sulfides, sulfoxides and sulfones were examined using low energy collision-induced dissociation on a Quattro II quadrupole tandem mass spectrometer. Abundant doubly charged ions, such as [3M + Met]2+ and [2M + Met]2+, were observed with alkaline earth metal chlorides. The other ions observed were [M + MetCl]+, [M + MetOAc]+, [M + MetO2SPh]+ and [2M + MetCl]+. The deprotonated metal adducts [M + Met-H]+ were seen only in the sulfones. The divalent metal ion adducts showed characteristic fragmentation pathways for the glycosyl sulfides, sulfoxides and sulfones, depending on the site of metal attachment. The doubly charged metal ion adducts dissociate to two singly charged ions, [M + MetOAc]+ and [M - OAc]+, in the sulfides and sulfoxides. In the sulfones, the adducts dissociate to [M + MetO2SPh]+ and [M - O2SPh]+. In contrast to the alkaline earth metals, which attach to the acetoxy functions, the transition metals attach to the sulfide and sulfoxide functions. The metal chloride adducts display characteristic fragmentation for the sulfides, sulfoxides and sulfones. The glucosyl, mannosyl and galactosyl sulfides, sulfoxides and sulfones could be differentiated on the basis of the stereochemically controlled MS/MS fragmentations of the metal chloride adducts.

Abstract
The effect of stereochemistry on the complexation of aldohexoses (glucose, mannose, galactose, allose and talose) and ketohexoses (fructose, tagitose and sorbose) with transition metal chlorides (CoCl(2), NiCl(2), MnCl(2) and ZnCl(2)) has been investigated by electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry. Electrospray ionization of methanolic solutions of hexoses containing metal chlorides gave abundant ions corresponding to [M + MetCl](+) and [2M + MetCl](+) which on collision-induced dissociation gave characteristic fragment ions. The fragmentation pathways have been confirmed by examining methyl glucoside and several isotopically labeled glucoses. Eliminations of H(2)O and HCl, C-C cleavages and elimination of metalhydroxychloride are the competing fragmentation pathways observed. All these pathways seem to be influenced by the stereochemistry of the molecule. The fragmentation of the dimeric complexes, [2M + MetCl](+), is also controlled by the stereochemistry of the molecule. The abundance of the product ions corresponding to elimination of HCl is found to increase with increasing number of axial hydroxyl groups in aldohexoses. [2M + MetCl](+) dissociates by elimination of HCl followed by C(2)H(4)O(2) in aldohexose complexes and by elimination of HCl followed by C(3)H(6)O(3) in ketohexose complexes.

Abstract
The effect of metal cationization on the tandem mass spectra of glycosyl dithioacetals of glucose, mannose, galactose, rhamnose, arabinose and xylose was studied by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry under ammonium and metal (Li, Na, Ag and Cu) ion cationization conditions. The ammonium-cationized glycosyl dithioacetals fragment by loss of ammonia followed by either two molecules of EtSH or one molecule of EtSH and one molecule of H2O. Lithium cationization leads to additional eliminations such as EtSEt and EtSSEt and C-C cleavages. Elimination of EtSH is not observed under sodium cationization. Silver cationization, on the other hand, leads to additional fragmentations involving the elimination of silver as AgOH and AgSEt. Copper cationization results in adducts where copper has undergone a change of oxidation state from II to I. Li+, Ag+ and Cu+ cationization seem to favour cyclization resulting in elimination of EtSH. However, the mechanisms seem to be differently affected by different metal ions. Li+ and Ag+ cationization appear to be non-specific and favour cyclization involving C2-, C4- and C5-hydroxyl hydrogens, whereas Cu+ cationization seems to favour cyclization involving C4-hydroxyl hydrogen.

Abstract
Electrospray ionization mass spectra of some glycosyl dithioacetals recorded in the presence of transition-metal chlorides, XCl2 (where X = Co, Mn and Zn), give abundant adduct ions such as [M+XCl]+ and [2M-H+X]+ and minor ions such as [M-H+X]+ and [2M+XCl]+. The tandem mass spectra of these adducts show characteristic elimination of neutral molecules such as H2O, HCl, EtSH, CH2O, C2H4O2/C2H4O. [M+XCl]+ ions fragment readily and the fragmentation appears to be stereochemically controlled as the relative abundances of the fragments are different for three stereoisomers. The added metal is lost as neutral molecules in the form of XCl(OH) and XCl(SEt). This is a predominant pathway in the ZnCl+ adducts. [2M+XCl]+ ions fragment preferentially by elimination of HCl, indicating strong metal interactions in the resulting dimeric [2M-H+X]+ ion. As there are several electron-rich centers in the molecule, the dimeric complex [2M-H+X]+ can have several structures and the observed fragmentations may reflect the sum of those of all these structures. The dimeric complexes fragment by elimination of neutral molecules leaving the dimeric interactions intact. The extent of fragmentation varies for the stereoisomers, leading to stereochemical differentiation.

Abstract
Isocyanates can cause occupational asthma. By using available HPLC-UVF methods, isocyanates can be quantified only at levels above 1% of the Permissible Exposure Limits (PEL). Once sensitized, workers can react to concentrations below these limits of detection (LOD) making these methods insufficiently sensitive to adequately evaluate trace amounts of isocyanates present in air or in materials at safe levels for sensitized workers. This article describes a novel method for isocyanate analysis allowing the quantification of 2,4TDI and 2,6TDI monomers at very low concentrations using HPLC-CIS-MS-MS. The method's sensitivity increases with a decrease in the alkali radius. The LOD is 0.039 ng mL(-1) for 2,4TDI and 0.100 ng mL(-1) for 2,6TDI in solution when lithium is the alkali adduct, which is 20 times more sensitive than HPLC-UVF method. This new method allows determination in foam at levels of 0.078 ng g(-1) for 2,4TDI and 0.200 ng g(-1) for 2,6TDI respectively, for a 0.5 g foam sample. This is more than 100 times more sensitive than other methods for determining free monomers in solid materials. Analytical reproducibility and precision are better than 92% and 93% for both diisocyanate monomers. The use of HPLC-UVF conventional method failed to detect unreacted isocyanates in foam samples, but TDI monomers were quantified by HPLC-CIS-MS-MS.

Abstract
Coordination ionspray mass spectrometry (CIS-MS) is a useful tool in the detection and identification of cholesterol ester and phospholipid hydroperoxides and diacyl peroxides. Extensive studies of a series of cholesterol esters using CIS-MS revealed the following: (1) Cholesterol esters with equal number of double bonds as the internal standard showed a linear relative response in the mass spectrometer while compounds with non-equal numbers of double bonds gave a nonlinear relative response. (2) Complex adducts containing cholesterol ester, silver ion, AgF, AgBF(4), and 2-propanoxide form when silver is in molar excess of cholesterol esters, reducing the [M + Ag](+) signal. (3) In a mixture of cholesterol esters where silver is limiting, Ch22:6 and Ch20:4 bind to silver at the expense of Ch18:2 and have a higher signal in the mass spectrometer. (4) In a mixture of cholesterol esters where silver concentration is twofold greater than total cholesterol ester concentration, Ch22:6 and Ch20:4 form large complex adducts more frequently than Ch18:2 and have a lower signal in the mass spectrometer.

Abstract
Electrospray ionization and atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) have evolved recently as very useful tools for the liquid chromatographic-mass spectrometric (LC-MS) analysis of polar substances. Non-polar compounds, however, are difficult to analyze with these atmospheric pressure ionization techniques due to their soft ionization mechanism. Recently, new approaches have been introduced which are likely to overcome this obstacle, at least partly. On-line electrochemical conversion of the analytes to more polar reaction products, atmospheric pressure photoionization, atmospheric pressure electron capture negativeion-MS and coordination ionspray-MS are four techniques which are presented in detail compared and discussed critically with respect to their current status and future perspectives. Particular focus is directed from a chemical viewpoint on the substance groups which are accessible by each of the new approaches.

Abstract
The tandem mass (MS/MS) spectra of ammonium ion, metal ion and ligated metal ion adducts of chain-extended acyclic nitro-containing deoxyglucose and deoxygalactose derivatives have been studied. The ammonium adducts fragment primarily by elimination of ammonia followed by acetic acid, thus not giving much structural information. In contrast, cationization of these compounds by metal ions and ligated metal ions gave structurally informative and useful fragment ions on MS/MS. The metal ions and ligated metal ions play an important role in controlling and directing fragmentation. Retro-aldol fragmentation is facilitated by metal ions such as Li(+), Na(+), Ag(+) and Cu(+), whereas the adducts with higher alkali metal ions such as Rb(+) and Cs(+) fragment to give only the corresponding metal ions. The divalent metal ions such as Cu(2+) and Ba(2+) also induce retro-aldol fragmentation. However, the charge is carried by the aldehyde fragment in the case of Cu(2+) adducts, whereas the nitroalkane fragment carries the charge in the case of Ba(2+) adducts. Ligated metal ions such as ZnCl(+), CuCl(+), InCl(2) (+) and BaCl(+) also behave similarly and induce retro-aldol fragmentation in these acyclic sugars. Both the metal ion and ligated metal ion adducts can fragment by elimination of metal-containing neutral molecules.

Abstract
Steroidal allylic alcohols formed Na+ adduct ion peaks [M+Na]+ by the addition of NaCl in FAB mass spectrometry. A comparison of the intensities of the adduct ion peaks of allylic alcohols with those of the corresponding saturated alcohols and olefin suggested that the olefinic double bond and the proximal hydroxyl group had coordinated to Na+. The adduct ion was stable and did not undergo dehydroxylation. We suggest that the Na+ adduction will be useful for the molecular weight determination of allylic alcohols which are susceptible to dehydroxylation under FAB mass spectrometric conditions. Na+ adduct ions of alpha,beta-unsaturated carbonyl compounds were also investigated.

Abstract
A combined chemical ionisation and tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) approach has been used for investigation of the gas-phase ion chemistry of systems containing the amino acids Glu and Met, and the dipeptides gamma-Glu-Met and Met-Glu. The metastable fragmentation of the protonated dimer, (Glu)2H(+), reveals an intracluster reaction leading to the elimination of the Glu residue. The main features of the ion-molecule reactions observed in the systems containing Glu and Glu + Met can be described in terms of sequential adduct formation. The results obtained for the thermal dehydration of Glu were used to rationalise the formation of the proton-bound structures (Glu-H2O...H(+)...(Glu-H2O) and (Glu-H2O)3-H(+). The adduct ions, [(Glu-H2O) + H + Glu](+) and [(Glu-H2O) + H + Met](+), and further association products were also observed. The results lead to a reconsideration of the structural aspects proposed earlier for these species in the sense that they suggest that the systems correspond to a mixture of isomeric covalent and proton-bound structures. The thermal effects on the decomposition of the neutral (gamma-Glu-Met) and its protonated form, (gamma-Glu-Met)H(+), at m/z 279 were investigated, and dramatic changes in the MI spectra of the m/z 279 ion with temperature were found. A mechanistic explanation for the observed evolution of higher mass ion peaks in the mass spectra is developed.

Abstract
We report the effect of metal-ion adduction on the fragmentation of oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) bearing DNA photoproducts. When protons on backbone phosphates of ODNs are completely replaced with metal ions, cleavages occur readily within the photoproduct moiety, whereas those cleavages do not occur in photomodified ODNs in which the phosphates are associated with protons. For example, thymine/adenine (TA*) photoproducts revert to their undamaged precursors upon collisional activation, the pyrimidine(6-4)pyrimidone product and its Dewar valence isomer show a characteristic neutral loss of C4H3NO3, and dimeric adenine photoproducts show a distinctive loss of NH2CN from the adenine six-membered ring. The product-ion mass spectra of photodamaged ODNs that are adducted to metal ions are complementary in terms of structure information to those spectra of ODNs in which the phosphates are associated with protons. The results also demonstrate that the energy required for strand cleavages is higher for ODNs adducted with metal ions than that for ODNs bound with protons. Furthermore, the loss of a pyrimidine is more favorable than the loss of a purine in the fragmentation of ODNs associated with metal ions.

Abstract
The molecular species in mixtures of phospholipid hydroperoxides are difficult to separate and identify by typical chromatographic and mass spectrometric techniques. As reported by Havrilla and coworkers, silver ion coordination ion-spray mass spectrometry (CIS-MS) has proven to be a powerful technique for the identification of mixtures of hydroperoxides. This ionization technique, which involves the formation of Ag+ adducts of the hydroperoxides, provides valuable, unambiguous structural information about the hydroperoxides. Herein, we report a method for the analysis and identification of phospholipid hydroperoxides using CIS-MS. We also report an improved method for the separation of phospholipid hydroperoxides by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC), which, for the first time, separates some of the hydroperoxide isomers. CIS-MS can be coupled with this RP-HPLC method by the addition of AgBF4 to the mobile phase or to the HPLC effluent postcolumn, thus allowing powerful HPLC-MS techniques to be used to identify complex mixtures of phospholipid hydroperoxides.

Abstract
In this article, we describe the unique fragmentations of oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) whose phosphate groups are completely depleted of protons and replaced with metal ions. The production of the ubiquitous [a(n) - base] ions still occurs, but no longer by transfer of an acidic phosphate proton to an adjoining 3' base. Nor is the extent of the reaction determined by the proton affinity of that base. Rather, the reaction now occurs via a cleavage 3' to both pyrimidines and purines; cleavage 3' to pyrimidine is more favorable than that 3' to purine. We also demonstrate that an ODN is more stable in the gas phase when its phosphate groups are bound to metal ions than when its phosphate groups are attached to hydrogens. This study also provides further evidence for the ODN fragmentation mechanism that involves H transfer to a nucleobase. To establish the structural utility of this new fragmentation, we applied it to distinguishing small ODNs containing a photomodified cis,syn-cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer from the parent ODNs, a system that cannot be distinguished by collisional activation of precursor species that do not contain metal ions.

Abstract
Organic peroxides have significance in organic synthesis and biological processes. Characterization of these compounds with weak O-O bonds is sometimes difficult due to their thermal instability and sensitivity to acid or base. Coordination of diacyl peroxides with AgBF4 provides a means for analysis of these compounds by coordination ionspray tandem mass spectrometry (CIS-MS/MS). Precursor ion (Q1) scans of acetyl benzoyl peroxide give two Ag+ adducts, [M + Ag + solvent]+ and [M + Ag + M]+. These silver ion adducts can be selectively dissociated (CID) to give unique structural information about the analyte. Decomposition of the [M + Ag + solvent]+ adduct generates fragmentation products due to apparent homolytic cleavage of the O-O bond followed by decarboxylation of the resultant radicals. The bis-diacylperoxide complex, [M + Ag + M]+ gives CID pathways that involve homolysis of the (O-O bond and free radical cross-coupling of the two diacyl peroxides coordinated to the silver ion, i.e. formation of dibenzoyl peroxide, phenyl benzoate, and biphenyl from acetyl benzoyl peroxide. The observation of free radical CID modes is uncommon in mass spectrometry but these pathways are consistent with well-known solution and gas phase processes for peroxide compounds. The proposed fragmentation pathways have been supported by experiments with (18)O and deuterated substrates. This technique can be applied to analyze diacyl peroxides with different substituents as well.

Abstract
The effect of alkali metal and silver cationization on the collision-induced dissociation (CID) of loganin (1), epi-loganin (2) and ketologanin (3) is discussed. Their protonated molecular ions fragment mainly by glycosidic cleavages. The epimeric pairs (1 and 2) show differences in the abundances of the resulting fragment ions. Lithium cationization induces new dissociation pathways such as the retro-Diels-Alder (RDA) fragmentation followed by rearrangement. Unlike the dissociation of protonated molecular ions, the dissociation of lithiated molecules also provides lithiated sugar fragments. The CID of dilithiated molecules is substantially different from that of the monolithiated precursors. RDA reaction appears to be favoured by the presence of the additional lithium atom in the molecule. In addition, other ring cleavages are also induced. The abundances of the various fragment ions are different in the CID spectra of the epimeric pairs. Extensive D labelling and (6)Li labelling experiments confirmed many of the ion structures proposed. The CID spectra of the sodiated ions are generally weaker, although similar to those of the corresponding lithiated species. Higher alkali metal ion (K(+), Rb(+) and Cs(+)) adducts generated only the corresponding metal ions as products of CID. Similar fragmentations were also observed in the CID of the [M + Ag](+) ions of these compounds, the epimeric pairs showing characteristic differences in their CID behaviour.

Abstract
The possibility of using real-time aerosol mass spectrometry (RTAMS) for the detection of surface-adsorbed tributyl phosphate (TBP) as an alkali metal adduct has been investigated. Environmental particles contain variable amounts of easily ionizable alkali metals. During laser desorption of surface-adsorbed TBP molecules, Na+ and K+ ions are generated by the interaction of the laser radiation with the particle's material. The alkali metal ions serve as in situ chemical ionization reagents of the neutral analyte molecules. The effect of laser fluence on the signal intensities of the potassium ion and cationized TBP was also studied. The best performance of the instrument was observed with laser fluences that produce high abundances of K+ but low abundances of ions from the particle's bulk material. The relatively low laser fluence, necessary to produce potassium ions, prevents the excessive fragmentation of the analyte. The instrument is capable of real-time monitoring of submonolayer coverage of TBP on the surface of micron-sized particles.

Abstract
Fast atom bombardment mass spectra of a series of naturally occurring and synthetically modified iridoid glycosides were studied using lithium cationization and collision-induced dissociation of the resulting [M+Li]+ ions. Lithium cationization leads to the unambiguous determination of the molecular masses of these compounds. Collision-induced dissociation of the lithiated molecular ions give valuable structural information regarding the nature of the substituent on both the aglycone and the sugar moieties. The characteristic fragmentation pathways identified are (1) elimination of neutral molecules comprising the substituents on either the aglycone or sugar moieties, (2) formation of lithiated aglycone and their fragment ions, (3) formation of lithiated sugar and their fragment ions, (4) fragmentation corresponding to the cleavage of the aglycone or sugar ring and (5) fragmentation characteristic of the substituents present in either the aglycone or sugar parts of the molecule. Elimination of two acyloxy radicals from the lithiated molecular ion is a characteristic fragmentation in the case of acyloxy derivatives.

Abstract
High-energy tandem mass spectrometry and molecular dynamics calculations are used to determine the locations of charge in metastably decomposing (M + 2H)2+ ions of human angiotensin II. Charge-separation reactions provide critical information regarding charge sites in multiple charged ions. The most probable kinetic energy released (Tm.p.) from these decompositions are obtained using kinetic energy release distributions (KERDs) in conjunction with MS/MS (MS2), MS/MS/MS (MS3), and MS/MS/MS/MS (MS4) experiments. The most abundant singly and doubly charged product ions arise from precursor ion structures in which one proton is located on the arginine (Arg) side chain and the other proton is located on a distal peptide backbone carbonyl oxygen. The MS3 KERD experiments show unequivocally that neither the N-terminal amine nor the aspartic acid (Asp) side chain are sites of protonation. In the gas phase, protonation of the less basic peptide backbone instead of the more proximal and basic histidine (His) side chain is favored as a result of reduced coulomb repulsion between the two charge sites. The singly and doubly charged product ions of lesser abundance arise from precursor ion structures in which one proton is located on the Arg side chain and the other on the His side chain. This is demonstrated in the MS3 and MS4 mass-analyzed ion kinetic energy spectrometry experiments. Interestingly, (b7" + OH)2+ product ions, like the (M + 2H)2+ ions of angiotensin II, are observed to have at least two different decomposing structures in which charge sites have a primary and secondary location.

Abstract
Under electrospray ionization conditions loganic acid undergoes alkali metal (Li, Na and K) exchange and alkali metal cationization. Multiple exchanges of up to four alkali metal ions are observed. Different populations of metal exchanged species are produced during electrospray ionization. Collision-induced dissociation of ammonium cationized species is compared with that of metal cationized species to study the effect of metal cationization. Glycosidic cleavage and ring cleavages of aglycone and sugar moieties are the major fragmentation pathways observed during collision-induced dissociation. The fragmentations of the highly metal exchanged species indicate the opening of the pyran ring. Collision-induced dissociation of the various metal exchanged and metal cationized species also reveals the nature of the different populations. Copyright 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Abstract
Interactions of [Cr(salprn)(H(2)O)(2)]ClO(4) with nucleosides and dinucleotides were studied using electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. The nucleosides 2'-deoxycytidine, thymidine, 2'-deoxyadenosine, 2'-deoxyguanosine, cytidine, adenosine and guanosine form 1 : 1 and 2 : 1 adducts with [Cr(salprn)](+), whereas the dinucleotides CpG, GpC, ApT, TpA and TpC form only the 1 : 1 adducts. Collisional activation (CA) spectra of these adducts reveal that Cr(+) attaches to the bases in nucleosides and to both the phosphate and base, especially cytosine and guanine moieties, in the nucleotides. The sugar residues appear to offer no binding sites as elimination of sugar residues is fairly abundant in the CA spectra of the adducts of many of the nucleosides.

Abstract
A laser desorption/ionization (LDI) time-of-flight mass spectrometric (TOF-MS) technique was used for the molecular mass analysis of thia fatty acids and esters, samples without appreciable light absorption at the laser wavelength. After a sample overlayer is deposited by solvent evaporation on a thin silver film substrate, it is subjected to 355 or 532 nm Nd : YAG laser irradiation. Photoablation of the Ag film substrate occurs with sufficient laser fluence, producing silver cluster cations, which can react with the desorbed thia fatty acid or ester molecules in the gas phase. Silver cation attachment of thia fatty esters may produce a silver-cationized analyte and fragments of structural diagnostic value, whereas thia fatty acids would not. With oxygen(s) present on the sulfur in sulfoxy fatty acids and esters, a silver-cationized analyte and additional fragments are produced. Formation of these fragments is consistent with charge-remote mechanisms through simple cleavage and rearrangement pathways. The structural reactivity of these compounds with ablated silver cations is hence comprehensively analyzed.

Abstract
A method is described to obtain multicollision dissociation threshold (MCDT) values. These values provide relative reaction thresholds for dissociation in the three major gas-phase fragmentation reactions of oligosaccharides complexed to alkali metal ions. The quasimolecular ions are produced using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization Fourier transform mass spectrometry. The MCDTs for alkali metal ion dissociation and glycosidic bond and cross-ring cleavages were resolved from the kinetic energy dependence of collision-induced dissociation (CID) products. The relative strengths of alkali metal ion binding to N,N'-diacetylchitobiose (chitobiose) and N,N',N"-triacetylchitotriose (chitotriose) were probed using sustained off-resonance irradiation (SORI) CID. Experiments to evaluate MCDT values and the method for obtaining them were performed by studying alkali metal ion coordinated crown ethers. Molecular dynamic simulations were also performed to provide insight into the alkali metal ion binding of chitin-based oligosaccharides. The relative dissociation thresholds of glycosidic bond cleavages and cross-ring cleavages were determined for various alkali metal ion coordinated oligosaccharides. The activation barriers of glycosidic bond cleavages were found to depend on the size of the alkali metal ion. Cross-ring cleavages were found to be independent of the alkali metal ion but dependent on linkage type. The results suggest that glycosidic bond cleavages are charge-induced while cross-ring cleavages are charge-remote processes.

Abstract
A systematic investigation of the gas-phase reactions of Cu(+) and Fe(+) with the 20 common amino acids is reported. Metal ions are formed by laser ablation of a metal target and are trapped in the analyzer cell of a Fourier transform mass spectrometer. By using quadrupolar excitation to axialize the metal ions, tens of thousands of thermalizing collisions occur prior to their reactions with laser-desorbed amino acid neutral molecules. Amino acids with nonpolar side chains are found to be more reactive toward Cu(+) and Fe(+) than amino acids with polar side chain. Many of the nonpolar amino acids are found to undergo dissociative metal attachment with a neutral loss of 46 u. A (13)C-labeling experiment shows that the carboxyl group is lost during dissociative metal attachment to amino acids. Together these results suggest that these metal ions interact primarily with the carboxyl functional group in these molecules.

Abstract
Resonant laser ablation (RLA) is used as a source to selectively generate multiple metal ion species from the same sample. The capability of rapidly changing metal ions for gas-phase ion chemistry studies is a significant advantage in ion-molecule chemistry. The simple experimental arrangement uses relatively modest laser pulse energies (≤ 25 µJ/pulse) from a tunable dye laser to desorb and selectively ionize different metal atoms from a multicomponent sample. In turn, this allows the chemistry of several components to be investigated without breaking vacuum or altering the experimental geometry. This work demonstrates the use of RLA as a selective source of several reagent metal ions for gas-phase ion chemistry investigations. In particular, the reactivity of acetone with Cr(+), Fe(+), Ni(+), and Cu(+) was examined for metal ions selectively created by RLA from a standard steel sample.
