  • First Online:
Ion/Molecule Attachment Reactions: Mass Spectrometry

Abstract

Chapter 5 explores the application of alkali-metal ion/molecule association in the gas-phase to mass spectrometry (MS). This chapter (1) surveys the fundamental basis to build the instrument, (2) describes the instrumentation to the measurement of mass spectrum, and (3) summarizes mass spectrometric applications to measurements on chemical compounds, which include intermediary free radical, interstellar, environmentally important, and unfamiliar or unstable species. The subject of application of the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) detective is also covered.
