Abstract
Photodissociation of [Ar-N2]+ induced by a near-IR (800 nm) femtosecond laser pulse is investigated using ion-trap time-of-flight mass spectrometry. The intra-complex charge transfer proceeding in the course of the decomposition of the electronically excited Ar+(2P3/2)⋯N2(X1Σg +), prepared by the photoexcitation of the electronic ground Ar(1S0)⋯N2 +(X2Σg +), is probed by the ion yields of Ar+ and N2 +. The yield ratio γ of N2 + with respect to the sum of the yields of Ar+ and N2 + is determined to be γ = 0.62, which is much larger than γ ∼ 0.2 determined before when the photodissociation is induced by a nano-second laser pulse in the shorter wavelength region between 270 and 650 nm. This enhancement of γ at 800 nm and the dependence of γ on the excitation wavelength are interpreted by numerical simulations, in which the adiabatic population transfer from Ar+(2P3/2)⋯N2(X1Σg +) to Ar(1S0)⋯N2 +(X2Σg +) at the avoided crossings is accompanied by the vibrational excitation in the N2 +(X2Σg +) moiety followed by the intra-complex vibrational energy transfer from the N2 +(X2Σg +) moiety to the intra-complex vibrational mode leading to the dissociation.

Abstract
The valence electronic properties of S-ethyl flouromethanethioate (S-ethyl fluoromethsanethioate), FC(O)SCH2CH3, were investigated by means of He(I) photoelectron spectroscopy in conjunction with the analysis of the photofragmentation products determined by PEPICO (phtoelectron-photoion-coincidence) by using synchrotron radiation in the 11.1-21.6 eV photon energy range. The first band observed at 10.28 eV in the HeI photoelectron spectrum can be assigned with confidence to the ionization process from the HOMO [nπ(S) orbital], which is described as a lone pair formally localized on the sulfur atom, in agreement with quantum chemical calculations using the outer valence Green function method [OVGF/6-311++G (d,p)]. One of the most important fragmentation channels also observed in the valence region corresponds to the decarbonylation process yielding the [M-CO](·+) ion, which is clearly observed at m/z = 80. Moreover, S 2p and S 2s absorption edges have been examined by measuring the total ion yield spectra in the 160-240 eV region using variable synchrotron radiation. The dynamic of ionic fragmentation following the Auger electronic decay has been evaluated with the help of the PEPIPICO (photoion-photoion-photoelectron-coincidence spectra) technique.

Abstract
A study of valence electronic properties of S-ethyl chlorothioformate (S-ethyl chloromethanethioate), ClC(O)SCH(2)CH(3), using HeI photoelectron spectra (PES) and synchrotron radiation is presented. Moreover, the photon impact excitation and dissociation dynamics of ClC(O)SCH(2)CH(3) excited at the S 2p and Cl 2p levels are elucidated by analyzing the total ion yield (TIY) spectra and time-of-flight mass spectra acquired in multicoincidence mode [photoelectron-photoion coincidence (PEPICO) and photoelectron-photoion-photoion coincidence (PEPIPICO)]. The HeI photoelectron spectrum is dominated by features associated with lone-pair electrons from the ClC(O)S- group, the HOMO at 9.84 eV being assigned to the n(π)(S) sulfur lone-pair orbital. Whereas the formation of C(2)H(5)(+) ion dominates the fragmentation in the valence energy region, the most abundant ion formed in both the S and Cl 2p energy ranges is C(2)H(3)(+). Comparison with related XC(O)SR (X = H, F, Cl and R = -CH(3), -C(2)H(5)) species reveals the impact of the alkyl chain on the photodissociation behavior of S-alkyl (halo)thioformates.

Abstract
The relationship of the structure of a protein in solution to the structure of a gas-phase protein ion and the manner in which gas-phase protein ions bind small molecules noncovalently are topics of current debate. To address these issues, the stability of heme binding to wild-type and variant forms of apomyoglobin and apocytochrome b5 has been studied in the gas phase by electrospray mass spectrometry (ES-MS) and compared with the stability of heme binding to the same proteins in solution. The voltage required to dissociate ions of the heme-protein complexes in the orifice-skimmer region of an electrospray mass spectrometer, a measure of the complex stability, is found to be correlated with the activation energy for dissociation of the complexes in solution across a series of proteins in which the number of hydrogen bonds between the heme propionate groups and surface residues is systematically reduced. However, variants in which the hydrogen bonds to the proximal histidine have been removed are destabilized in solution but stabilized in the gas-phase ions. These results suggest that on the millisecond time scale of the ES-MS experiment, the gas-phase protein ion may retain much of the structure of the protein in solution, at least for those residues surrounding the heme group. Furthermore, the ability of ES-MS to detect relatively subtle differences in protein-small molecule complex stability demonstrated in this work suggests that this technique may be a convenient, sensitive, and generally useful strategy for physical characterization of such complexes.
