Supramolecular Clusters between Carbohydrates and Concave Pyridines. Detection in the Gas Phase by Resonance-Enhanced Multi-Photon Ionization Refectron Time-of-Fight Mass Spectrometry
For the first time, the formation of supramolecular clusters between concave pyridines and different carbohydrates could be observed in the gas phase. The different clusters have been investigated by means of laser desorption into a supersonic beam followed by resonant multi-photon excitation yielding mass spectra with high intensity of the different clusters. These preliminary results open the way for investigating the hydrogen bonds in these compounds.
