We present the high-resolution (HRES-MS) and ion-mobility (IMS-MS) mass spectrometry studies of icosahedral nanoscale polyoxometalate-based {L(30)}{(Mo)Mo(5)} Keplerate clusters, and demonstrate the use of IMS-MS to resolve and map intact nanoclusters, and its potential for the discovery of new structures, in this case the first gas phase observation of 'proto-clustering' of higher order Keplerate supramolecular aggregates.
我们呈现了基于二十面体纳米多金属氧酸盐的 {L(30)}{(Mo)Mo(5)} Keplerate 团簇的高分辨率(HRES-MS)和离子迁移(IMS-MS)质谱研究,并展示了 IMS-MS 在解析和映射完整纳米团簇方面的应用,以及其在发现新结构方面的潜力,在这种情况下,首次在气相中观察到更高阶 Keplerate 超分子聚集体的“原聚类”。
