Abstract
Water dimer (H2O)2─a vital component of the earth's atmosphere─is an important prototypical hydrogen-bonded system. It provides direct insights into fundamental chemical and biochemical processes, e.g., proton transfer and ionic supramolecular dynamics, occurring in astro- and atmospheric chemistry. Exploiting a purified molecular beam of water dimer and multimass ion imaging, we report the simultaneous detection of all generated ion products of (H2O)2+ fragmentation following single ionization. Detailed information about ion yields and reaction energetics of 13 ion-radical pathways, 6 of which are new, of (H2O)2+ are presented, including strong 18O-isotope effects.

Abstract
We present an implementation of a damped response framework for calculating resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) at the equation-of-motion coupled-cluster singles and doubles (CCSD) and second-order approximate coupled-cluster singles and doubles (CC2) levels of theory in the open-source program eT. This framework lays the foundation for future extension to higher excitation methods (notably, the coupled-cluster singles and doubles with perturbative triples, CC3) and to multilevel approaches. Our implementation adopts a fully relaxed ground state and different variants of the core-valence separation projection technique to address convergence issues. Illustrative results are compared with those obtained within the frozen-core core-valence separated approach, available in Q-Chem, as well as with experiment. The performance of the CC2 method is evaluated in comparison with that of CCSD. It is found that, while the CC2 method is noticeably inferior to CCSD for X-ray absorption spectra, the quality of the CC2 RIXS spectra is often comparable to that of the CCSD level of theory, when the same valence excited states are probed. Finally, we present preliminary RIXS results for a solvated molecule in aqueous solution.

Abstract
We present a cryogenic mass spectrometry protocol with the capability to detect peptides in the attomole dilution range from ice films. Our approach employs femtosecond laser pulses and implements neither substrate modification nor proton donor agents in the aqueous solution, known to facilitate analyte detection in mass spectrometry. In a systematic study, we investigated the impact of temperature, substrate composition, and irradiation wavelength (513 and 1026 nm) on the bradykinin signal onset. Our findings show that substrate choice and irradiation wavelength have a minor impact on signal intensity once the preparation protocol is optimized. However, if the temperature is increased from -140 to 0 °C, which is accompanied by ice film thinning, a somehow complex picture of analyte desorption and ionization is recognizable, which has not been described in the literature yet. Under cryogenic conditions (-140 °C), obtaining a signal is only possible from isolated sweet spots across the film. If the thin ice film is between -100 and -70 °C of temperature, these sweet spots appear more frequently. Ice sublimation triggered by temperatures above -70 °C leads to an intense and robust signal onset that could be maintained for several hours. In addition to the above findings, we notice that a vibrant fragmentation pattern produced is strikingly similar with both wavelengths. Our findings suggest that while following an optimized protocol, femtosecond mass spectrometry has excellent potential to analyze small organic molecules and peptides with a mass range of up to 2.5 kDa in aqueous solution without any matrix, as employed in matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) or any substrate surface modification, found in surface-assisted laser desorption/ionization (SALDI).

Abstract
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a unique molecule that is applied in various fields, including energy chemistry, astrophysics, and medicine. H2O2 readily forms clusters with water molecules. In the present study, the reactions of ionized H2O2-water clusters, H2O2 +(H2O) n , after vertical ionization of the parent neutral cluster were investigated using the direct ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) method to elucidate the reaction mechanism. Clusters with one to five water molecules, H2O2-(H2O) n (n = 1-5), were examined, and the reaction of [H2O2 +(H2O) n ]ver was tracked from the vertical ionization point to the product state, where [H2O2 +(H2O) n ]ver is the vertical ionization state (hole is localized on H2O2). After ionization, fast proton transfer (PT) from H2O2 + to the water cluster (H2O) n was observed in all clusters. The HOO radical and H3O+(H2O) n-1 were formed as products. The PT reaction proceeds directly without an activation barrier. The PT times for n = 1-5 were calculated to be 36.0, 9.8, 8.3, 7.7, and 7.1 fs, respectively, at the MP2/6-311++G(d,p) level, indicating that PT in these clusters is a very fast process, and the PT time is not dependent on the cluster size (n), except in the case of n = 1, where the PT time was slightly longer because the bond distance and angle of the hydrogen bond in n = 1 were deformed from the standard structure. The reaction mechanism was discussed based on these results.

Abstract
Computational and condensed phase experimental evidence for the existence of S∴N and S∴O hemibonded structures has been reported previously, but no gas phase experimental evidence has been reported. To experimentally explore the existence of the S∴N and S∴O hemibonds in the gas phase, we recorded the infrared photodissociation action spectra of four cationic clusters: [CH3SH-NH3]+, [CH3SCH3-NH3]+, [CH3SCH3-H2O]+, and [CH3OCH3-H2O]+. Combined with the calculation results, it is found that the S∴N hemibonded structure is competitive with the S⋯HN H-bonded structure, though only the latter structure is actually observed in [CH3SH-NH3]+. The spectral and theoretical results show that hemibonds can form between the second- (oxygen or nitrogen) and the third-period elements (sulfur) in the heterodimer clusters of [CH3SCH3-NH3]+ and [CH3SCH3-H2O]+. However, the S∴N and S∴O hemibonded structures are found competitive with the C⋯HN and CH⋯O H-bonded structures, respectively, and both the structures coexist. On the other hand, the O∴O hemibonded structure is much less stable than other hydrogen bonded (H-bonded) structures in [CH3OCH3-H2O]+, and it shows no clear contribution to the observed spectrum. This study provides direct spectroscopic evidence for the existence of S∴N and S∴O hemibonds in the gas phase and their competition with the H-bonds, which may be also fundamentally important in biological processes.

Abstract
Ionization of organic compounds with different structural and energetic properties including benzene derivatives, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), ketones, and polyenes was studied using a commercial atmospheric pressure corona discharge (APCI) ion source on a drift tube ion mobility-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometer (IM-QTOFMS). It was found that the studied cohort of compounds can be experimentally ionized via protonation, charge transfer, and hydride abstraction leading to formation of [M + H]+, [M]+•, and [M - H]+ species, respectively. By experimentally monitoring the product ions and comparing the thermodynamic data for different ionization paths, it was proposed that NO+ is one of the main reactant ions (RIs) in the ion source used. Of particular focus in this work were theoretical and experimental studies of the effect of solvents frequently used for analytical applications with this ion source (acetonitrile, methanol, and chloroform) on the ionization mechanisms. In methanol, the studied compounds were observed to be ionized mainly via proton transfer while acetonitrile suppressed the protonation of compounds and enhanced their ionization via charge transfer and hydride abstraction. Use of chloroform as a solvent led to formation of CHCl2+ as an alternative reactant ion (RI) to ionize the analytes via electrophilic substitution. Density functional theory (DFT) was used to study the different paths of ionization. The theoretical and experimental results showed that by using only the absolute thermodynamic data, the real ionization path cannot be determined and the energies of all competing processes such as charge transfer, protonation, and hydride abstraction need to be compared.

Abstract
Using isolated and polarized states of fragments, a method for computing the polarization energies in density functional theory (DFT) and density-functional tight-binding (DFTB) is developed in the framework of the fragment molecular orbital method. For DFTB, the method is extended into the use of periodic boundary conditions (PBC), for which a new component, a periodic self-polarization energy, is derived. The couplings of the polarization to other components in the pair interaction energy analysis (PIEDA) are derived for DFT and DFTB, and compared to Hartree-Fock and second-order Møller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2). The effect of the self-consistent (DFT) and perturbative (MP2) treatment of the electron correlation on the polarization is discussed. The difference in the polarization in the bulk (PBC) and micro (cluster) solvation is elucidated.

Abstract
We present a vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) photoionization study of the gas-phase sulfuric acid (H2SO4) molecule in the 11-14 eV energy range by using the method of synchrotron radiation-based double imaging photoelectron photoion coincidence (i2PEPICO) spectroscopy complemented with accurate theoretical calculations. The slow photoelectron spectrum (SPES) of H2SO4 has been acquired and the three electronic states of H2SO4+, X2A, A2A and B2A have been populated and assigned. The adiabatic ionization energy of the H2SO4 molecule towards the X2A cationic ground state is measured at 11.684 ± 0.006 eV, in accordance with high-level calculated findings. With increasing photon energies, the H2SO4+ cation dissociates into HSO3+ and OH fragments and their adiabatic appearance energy is measured at 13.498 ± 0.007 eV. Then, the enthalpies of formation for the species involved in the photoionization and dissociative photoionization have been determined through a thermochemical cycle.

Abstract
Since the first mass spectrometry (MS) experiments were conducted by Thomson and Aston, plasmas have been used as ionization sources. Historically, plasma ion sources were used for these experiments because they were one of the few known sources of gas-phase ions at the time and they were relatively simple to setup and operate. Since then, developments in plasma ionization have continued to inform and motivate advances in other areas of MS. For example, plasma-desorption MS demonstrated ionization of large peptides and polymers more than 10 years before the first descriptions of electrospray ionization (ESI) and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI). As a result, significant effort was placed on development of ionization approaches, mass analysis, and detection approaches for very large molecules: even before the advent of ESI and MALDI. Since then, new analytical challenges and opportunities in plasma ionization have arisen. In this review, the emerging trends in plasma-based ionization for several areas of MS will be discussed, including molecular ionization, elemental ionization, hybrid elemental and molecular ion sources, and unique chemical transformations. © 2020 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.

Abstract
Ionization-based volatile organic compound (VOC) sensors that use photons or electrons operating at room temperature have attracted considerable attention as a promising alternative to conventional metal oxide-based sensors that require high temperature for sensing function. However, the photoionization sensors cannot ionize many gas species for their limited photon energy, and field emission-based ionization sensors that rely on the breakdown voltage of specific gas species in a pure state may not tell different concentration. This work demonstrates the detection of VOCs using impact ionization induced by accelerated photoelectrons. Although the photoelectrons emitted by relatively low photon energy typically have insufficient kinetic energy to cause impact ionization, in this approach, they are accelerated between microgap electrodes to enhance their kinetic energy such that the impact ionization of VOCs can be achieved. The demonstrated gas sensor sensitively detects toluene concentration in a wide range from 1000 ppm to 100 ppb with fast response and recovery time at room temperature. Additionally, diverse VOC species including benzene, p-xylene, and even acetylene with high ionization energy can be detected. The proposed method could be a viable solution for VOC sensors with low cost, scalable producibility, and high performance.

Abstract
A theoretical study of the regium and hydrogen bonds (RB and HB, respectively) in Au2 :HX complexes has been carried out by means of CCSD(T) calculations. The theoretical study shows as overall outcome that in all cases the complexes exhibiting RB are more stable that those with HB. The binding energies for RB complexes range between -24 and -180 kJ ⋅ mol-1, whereas those of the HB complexes are between -6 and -19 kJ ⋅ mol-1 . DFT-SAPT also indicated that HB complexes are governed by electrostatics, but RB complexes present larger contribution of the induction term to the total attractive forces. 197 Au chemical shifts have been calculated using the relativistic ZORA Hamiltonian.

Abstract
S-aromatic motifs are important noncovalent forces for protein stability and function but remain poorly understood. Hence, we performed quantum calculations at the MP2(full)/6-311++G(d,p) level on complexes between Cys (H2S, MeSH) and Met (Me2S) models with models of Phe (benzene, toluene), Trp (indole, 3-methylindole), Tyr (phenol, 4-methylphenol), and His (imidazole, 4-methylimidazole). The most stable gas-phase conformers exhibit binding energies of -2 to -6 kcal/mol, and the S atom lies perpendicular to the ring plane. This reveals preferential interaction with the ring π-system, except in the imidazoles where S binds edge-on to an N atom. Complexation tunes the gas-phase vertical ionization potentials of the ligands over as much as 1 eV, and strong σ- or π-type H-bonding supports charge transfer to the H-bond donor, rendering it more oxidizable. When the S atom acts as an H-bond acceptor (N/O-Har···S), calibration of the CHARMM36 force field (by optimizing pair-specific Lennard-Jones parameters) is required. Implementing the optimized parameters in molecular dynamics simulations in bulk water, we find stable S-aromatic complexes with binding free energies of -0.6 to -1.1 kcal/mol at ligand separations up to 8 Å. The aqueous S-aromatics exhibit flexible binding conformations, but edge-on conformers are less stable in water. Reflecting this, only 0.3 to 10% of the S-indole, S-phenol, and S-imidazole structures are stabilized by N/O-Har···S or S-H···Oar/Nar σ-type H-bonding. The wide range of energies and geometries found for S-aromatic interactions and their tunable redox properties expose the versatility and variability of the S-aromatic motif in proteins and allow us to predict a number of their reported properties.

Abstract
Environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM) and environmental photoelectron yield spectroscopy (EPYS) enable electron imaging and spectroscopy of surfaces and interfaces in low-vacuum gaseous environments. The techniques are both appealing and limited by the range of gases that can be used to amplify electrons emitted from a sample and used to form images/spectra. However, to date only H2O and NH3 gases have been identified as highly favorable electron amplification media. Here we demonstrate that ethanol vapor (CH3CH2OH) is superior to both of these and attribute its performance to its molecular complexity and valence orbital structure. Our findings improve the present understanding of what constitutes a favorable electron amplification gas and will help expand the applicability and usefulness of the ESEM and EPYS techniques.

Abstract
Icy grain mantles that accrete on refractory dust particles in the very cold interstellar medium or beyond the snow line in protoplanetary disks serve as minute incubators for heterogeneous chemistry. Ice mantle chemistry can differ significantly from the gas phase chemistry that occurs in these environments and is often richer. Modeling ices and their chemistry is a challenging task for quantum theoretical methods, but theory promises insight into these systems that is difficult to attain with experiments. Density functional theory (DFT) is predominately employed for modeling reactions in icy grain mantles due to its favorable scalability, but DFT has limitations that risk undercutting its reliability for this task. In this work, basic protocols are proposed for identifying the degree to which DFT methods are able to reproduce experimental or higher level theoretical results for the fundamental interactions upon which ice mantle chemistry depends, including both reactive interactions and non-reactive scaffolding interactions. The exemplar of this study is the reaction of C(+) with H2O, where substantial methodological differences are found in the prediction of gas phase relative energetics for stationary points (about 10 kcal mol(-1) for the C-O bond energy of the H2OC(+) intermediate), which in turn casts doubt about employing it to treat the C(+) + H2O reaction on an ice surface. However, careful explorations demonstrate that B3LYP with small correlation consistent basis sets performs in a sufficiently reliable manner to justify using it to identify plausible chemical pathways, where the dominant products were found to be neutral HOC and the CO(-) anion plus one and two H3O(+) cations, respectively. Predicted vibrational and electronic spectra are presented that would serve to verify or disconfirm the pathways; the latter were computed with time-dependent DFT. Conclusions are compared with those of a recent similar study by McBride and coworkers (J. Phys. Chem. A, 2014, 118, 6991).

Abstract
The H2O(+) radical ion, produced in an electrospray ion source via charge transfer from Eu(3+), is encapsulated in benzo-15-crown-5 (B15C5) or benzo-18-crown-6 (B18C6). We measure UV photodissociation (UVPD) spectra of the (H2O·B15C5)(+) and (H2O·B18C6)(+) complexes in a cold, 22-pole ion trap. These complexes show sharp vibronic bands in the 35 700-37 600 cm(-1) region, similar to the case of neutral B15C5 or B18C6. These results indicate that the positive charge in the complexes is localized on H2O, giving the forms H2O(+)·B15C5 and H2O(+)·B18C6, in spite of the fact that the ionization energy of B15C5 and B18C6 is lower than that of H2O. The formation of the H2O(+) complexes and the suppression of the H3O(+) production through the reaction of H2O(+) and H2O can be attributed to the encapsulation of hydrated Eu(3+) clusters by B15C5 and B18C6. On the contrary, the main fragment ions subsequent to the UV excitation of these complexes are B15C5(+) and B18C6(+) radical ions; the charge transfer occurs from H2O(+) to B15C5 and B18C6 after the UV excitation. The position of the band origin for the H2O(+)·B18C6 complex (36323 cm(-1)) is almost the same as that for Rb(+)·B18C6 (36315 cm(-1)); the strength of the intermolecular interaction of H2O(+) with B18C6 is similar to that of Rb(+). The spectral features of the H2O(+)·B15C5 complex also resemble those of the Rb(+)·B15C5 ion. We measure IR-UV spectra of these complexes in the CH and OH stretching region. Four conformers are found for the H2O(+)·B15C5 complex, but there is one dominant form for the H2O(+)·B18C6 ion. This study demonstrates the production of radical ions by charge transfer from multivalent metal ions, their encapsulation by host molecules, and separate detection of their conformers by cold UV spectroscopy in the gas phase.
