Direct detection

Ar, Cs, Ga or other elements with energies between 0.5 and 10 keV), energy is deposited in the surface region of the sample by a collisional cascade. Some of the energy will return to the surface and stimulate the ejection of atoms, ions and multi-atomic clusters (figure Bl.25.8). In SIMS, secondary ions (positive or negative) are detected directly with a mass spectrometer. [Pg.1860]

Doubt (75ZN(B)822) has been cast on a number of claims for the formation of 2-azetin-4-ones from cycloaddition of activated isocyanates to acetylenes (70TL119). The simple 2-azetin-4-one (246) was not isolated or even detected directly at -50 °C in the photofragmentation of compound (245), but indirect evidence for its formation was the isolation of adducts (248 X = MeO, MeNH) in the presence of methanol or methylamine (75TL1335). The most convincing evidence for an isolable 2-azetin-4-one involves treatment of the... [Pg.277]

Flowever, when the metal can be detected directly (mainly Pt), it is possible to relate the form of the NMR spectmm to the dispersion of the metal and to calculate the electron density of states at the Fermi level. [Pg.12]

Physical detection methods are based on inclusion of substance-specific properties. The most commonly employed are the absorption or emission of electromagnetic radiation, which is detected by suitable detectors (the eye, photomultiplier). The / -radiation of radioactively labelled substances can also be detected directly. These nondestructive detection methods allow subsequent micropreparative manipulation of the substances concerned. They can also be followed by microchemical and/or biological-physiological detection methods. [Pg.9]

The overall reaction stoichiometry having been established by conventional methods, the first task of chemical kinetics is essentially the qualitative one of establishing the kinetic scheme in other words, the overall reaction is to be decomposed into its elementary reactions. This is not a trivial problem, nor is there a general solution to it. Much of Chapter 3 deals with this issue. At this point it is sufficient to note that evidence of the presence of an intermediate is often critical to an efficient solution. Modem analytical techniques have greatly assisted in the detection of reactive intermediates. A nice example is provided by a study of the pyridine-catalyzed hydrolysis of acetic anhydride. Other kinetic evidence supported the existence of an intermediate, presumably the acetylpyridinium ion, in this reaction, but it had not been detected directly. Fersht and Jencks observed (on a time scale of tenths of a second) the rise and then fall in absorbance of a solution of acetic anhydride upon treatment with pyridine. This requires that the overall reaction be composed of at least two steps, and the accepted kinetic scheme is as follows. [Pg.7]

The transient radicals produced in reactions of hydroxy radicals with vinyl monomers in aqueous solution have been detected directly by EPR43 439 or UV spectroscopy,440-441 These studies indicate that hydroxy radicals react with monomers and other species at or near the diffusion-controlled limit ( Table 3.7). However, high reactivity does not mean a complete lack of specificity. Hydroxy radicals are electrophilic and trends in the relative reactivity of the hydroxy radicals toward monomers can be explained on this basis/97... [Pg.128]

SsO may also function as a precursor for S2O units. However, it should be noticed that free S2O has never been detected directly in liquid solutions and that the isolated products most probably arise from a reaction of the S2O precursor with the trapping reagent since the reaction temperature is always 20 °C (e.g., by a transition-metal-induced retro-Diels-Alder reaction) [52, 53]. An exception may be the thermal decomposition of the substituted tetrathiolane-2,3-dioxide shown in Scheme 2 this compound evidently... [Pg.210]

Coherence A condition in which nuclei precess with a given phase relationship and can exchange spin states via transitions between two eigenstates. Coherence may be zero-quantum, single-quantum, double-quantum, etc., depending on the AM of the transition corresponding to the coherence. Only single-quantum coherence can be detected directly. [Pg.412]

Double-quantum coherence Coherence between states that are separated by magnetic quantum numbers of 2. This coherence cannot be detected directly, but must be converted to single-quantum coherence before detection. [Pg.414]

One rather unfortunate aspect of the M + hydrocarbon (and M + OX) reactions mentioned thus far is that the products of the reactions were not detected directly, but were instead inferred via the pressure and temperature dependencies of the measured rate constants for metal reactant consumption and by comparison to ab initio calculations. Exceptions are the reactions of Y, Zr + C2H4 and C3H6, for which the Weisshaar group employed the 157 nm photoionization/mass spectrometry technique to identify the products of the reaction as those resulting from bimolecular elimination of H2.45 47 95...

Formation of the metaphosphonate 23 also occurs on mass-spectrometric fragmentation of the 1,3,4X5-dioxaphosphorin 56a 17 35> a peak at m/e = 140 corresponding to the mass number of 23 is indeed observed 35). Vacuum pyrolysis of 56a parallels the mass spectrometric degradation to form diphenylacetylene and benzophenone however, 23 could not be detected directly. This can be accomplished though, if thermolysis is conducted in methanol (220 °C/22 at) dimethyl benzenephosphonate (63) is again formed via 62 35). [Pg.89]

Notwithstanding the aforementioned difficulty in detecting specific target proteins other than the types normally observed in the taxonomic fingerprints from whole bacteria MALDI spectra (i.e., ribosomal proteins), some other target proteins and protein-like materials have been studied directly from whole cells. For example, Lantibiotics, antimicrobial peptides secreted by Gram-positive bacteria have been detected directly from whole bacteria by MALDI-TOF MS.51 The lantibiotics nisin and lacticin 481 were detected from whole cells and crude supernatants. Surprisingly, better results were reported from whole cells than the supernatants. In this study the presence of variants... [Pg.142]

The chemistry of all of these molecules is fascinating but, concentrating on the origins of life, a detailed look at the organic species is appropriate to see what molecules are present and how they might have been formed. The only alkane detected directly in the ISM is methane but this is due to the problem of detection. All alkanes are non-polar and so do not have a pure rotation spectrum. However, there is one allowed vibration of methane that is infrared active and with the low moment of inertia of methane the vibration-rotation spectrum can be observed and a rotational progression identifies the molecule with confidence.
