An experimental and theoretical investigation of gas‐phase reactions of Ca2+ with glycine

Résumé

The gas‐phase reactions between Ca2+ and glycine ([Ca(gly)]2+) have been investigated through the use of mass spectrometry techniques and B3‐LYP/cc‐pWCVTZ density functional theory computations. The major peaks observed in the electrospray MS/MS spectrum of [Ca(gly)]2+ correspond to the formation of the [Ca,C,O2,H]+, NH2CH2+, CaOH+, and NH2CH2CO+ fragment ions, which are produced in Coulomb explosion processes. The computed potential energy surface (PES) shows that not only are these species the most stable product ions from a thermodynamic point of view, but they may be produced with barriers lower than for competing processes. Carbon monoxide is a secondary product, derived from the unimolecular decomposition of some of the primary ions formed in the Coulomb explosions. In contrast to what is found for the reactions of Ca2+ with urea ([Ca(urea)]2+), minimal unimolecular losses of neutral fragments are observed for the gas‐phase fragmentation processes of [Ca(gly)]2+, which is readily explained in terms of the topological differences between their respective PESs.
