Two-dimensional mass spectrometry (2D MS) correlates precursor and fragment ions without ion isolation in a Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometer (FTICR MS) for tandem mass spectrometry. Infrared activated electron capture dissociation (IR-ECD), using a hollow cathode configuration, generally yields more information for peptide sequencing in tandem mass spectrometry than ECD (electron capture dissociation) alone. The effects of the fragmentation zone on the 2D mass spectrum are investigated as well as the structural information that can be derived from it.

The forensic studies of naphthenic acids fraction components in oil sands process water (OSPW) and crude oil has continued to receive significant attention due to increased need to explicate the toxicological claims of these components and their distributions in environmental samples and to address the problems faced in the petroleum industry.

This technique combines the benefits of infusion-based MS experiments (parallel, on-demand access to individual components) with DMSs ability to provide liquid chromatography-like separations of isobaric and isomeric compounds in a fraction of the time. In this study, we have applied a DMS-MS workflow to the rapid gas-phase separation of naphthenic acids (NAs) within a technical standard and a real-world oil sands process-affected water (OSPW) extract. Among the findings provided by this workflow are the rapid characterization of isomeric NAs (i.e., same molecular formulas) in a complex OSPW sample, the ability to use DMS to isolate individual NA components (including isomeric NAs) for in-depth structural analyses, and a method by which NA analytes, background ions, and dimer species can be characterized by their distinct behaviors in DMS.

\n To analyze the naphthenic acid content of environmental waters quickly and efficiently, we have developed a method that employs differential mobility spectrometry (DMS) coupled to mass spectrometry (MS). This technique combines the benefits of infusion-based MS experiments (parallel, on-demand access to individual components) with DMSs ability to provide liquid chromatography-like separations of isobaric and isomeric compounds in a fraction of the time. In this study, we have applied a DMS-MS workflow to the rapid gas-phase separation of naphthenic acids (NAs) within a technical standard and a real-world oil sands process-affected water (OSPW) extract.

\n Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry has made a significant contribution to the characterization of naphthenic acids in petroleum samples. The characterization of naphthenic acids is of particular interest due to their believed involvement in corrosion and deposit formation, as well as their toxicity toward aquatic organisms. Analysis of a complex mixture, such as a petroleum sample, can present challenges in terms of data analysis and visualization. A variety of graphical methods for representing the data are evaluated, and the use of a heat map, a method primarily used within molecular biology, is highlighted. An Athabasca oil sands sample was characterized and compounds of the empirical formula CnH 2n+zOx, where x = 2-5, were observed. The range of oxygen content is of particular relevance in light of other research, which has shown that the total acid number of a petroleum sample is not a reliable method for evaluating the acid content, as not all of the acids are monoprotic. © 2009 American Chemical Society.\n

In further experiments, the coalescence reactivity, leading toward the formation of larger clusters has been examined following laser ablation of thin films of the (CsgNJa dimer. Coalescence leads to two major reaction products, consisting of larger Cn-1N+clusters which retain the nitrogen atom networked into a larger carbon cage and pure Cn+(n = even) carbon clusters. The Cn-1N+cluster formation is accompanied by abundant metastable transitions caused by the loss of CN and the resulting implications for the coalescence mechanism are discussed. Finally, evidence is presented for the delayed electron emission of C59N·. The observation of delayed ionization of heterofullerenes is unprecedented, revealing a similar resistance toward fragmentation as in the case of their all-carbon fullerene analogues. © 2000 American Chemical Society.\n
