Investigating photoinduced energy and electron transfer mechanisms in ferrocene-zinc porphyrin-boron dipyrrin-fullerene supramolecular construct
(American Chemical Society, 2014-03-16)Photoinduced energy (EnT) and electron transfer (ET) processes have been the driving force in the conversion of solar energy to electrical energy or fuels. Understanding the mechanism is vital in designing “antenna-reaction ... -
Investigation of abiotic degradation of tire cryogrinds
(Elsevier, 2022-01-05)The abundance of microplastics found in the environment is a major cause of concern. Tire tread particles containing additives such as curing accelerators and antioxidants, can be a major source of elastomer pollution in ... -
Investigation of intramolecular proton migration in a series of model, metal-cationized tripeptides using in situ generation of an isotope label
(John Wiley and Sons, 2006-01-01)In this study we used an isotope label, generated in situ, to investigate intramolecular proton migration or scrambling during formation of [b(2)+17+Li](+) products by collision-induced dissociation (CID) of Li(+)-cationized ... -
Investigation of the neutral loss of a full amino acid mass during collision-induced dissociation of the b(3)+ ion derived from a model peptide containing a 4-aminobutyric acid residue
(John Wiley and Sons, 2007-01-01)In a previous study we found that a dominant fragmentation pathway observed for collision-induced dissociation (CID) of b(3)+ derived from peptides with sequence AXAG, where X is gamma-aminobutyric acid (gammaAbu) or ... -
Investigations of acidity and nucleophilicity of diphenyldithiophosphinate ligands using theory and gas-phase dissociation reactions
(American Chemical Society, 2008-04-21)Diphenyldithiophosphinate (DTP) ligands modified with electron-withdrawing trifluoromethyl (TFM) substitutents are of high interest because they have demonstrated potential for exceptional separation of Am (3+) from ... -
Ion mobility separation of peptide isotopomers
(Springer International Publishing AG, 2016-05)Differential or field asymmetric waveform ion mobility spectrometry (FAIMS) operating at high electric fields fully resolves isotopic isomers for a peptide with labeled residues. The naturally present isotopes, alone and ... -
Ion mobility spectrometry of macromolecules with dipole alignment switchable by varying the gas pressure
