M. Decouzon et al., ON THE USE OF THE KINETIC METHOD FOR THE DETERMINATION OF PROTON AFFINITIES BY FOURIER-TRANSFORM ION-CYCLOTRON RESONANCE MASS-SPECTROMETRY, Rapid communications in mass spectrometry, 10(2), 1996, pp. 242-245
The use in Fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance (FTICR) mass spec
trometry of the collision-induced dissociation of proton-bound dimers,
the kinetic method or Cooks's method, is tested, This method is compa
red with the proton-transfer equilibrium method, Good agreement betwee
n the two methods is observed, Advantages and limitations of the FTICR
kinetic method are briefly discussed.
