Kleine Vorschau
Zusammenfassung: 
Although aniline is a relatively simple small molecule, the origin of its two peaks observed in ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) has remained under debate for at least 30 years. First hypothesized as a difference in protonation site (amine vs. benzene ring), each ion mobility peak differs by one Dalton when coupled with mass spectrometry where the faster mobility peak is the molecular ion peak, and the slower mobility peak is protonated. To complicate the deconvolution of structures, some previous literature shows the peaks as unresolved and thus proposes these species exist in equilibrium. In this work, we show that when measured with high kinetic energy ion mobility spectrometry (HiKE-IMS), the two peaks observed in spectra of both aniline and all n-fluoroanilines are fully separated (chromatographic resolution from 2-7, Rp > 110) and therefore not in equilibrium. The HiKE-IMS is capable of changing ionization conditions independently of drift region conditions, and our results agree with previous literature showing that ionization source settings (including possible fragmentation at this stage) are the only influence determining the speciation of the two aniline peaks. Finally, when the drift and reactant gas are changed to nitrogen, a third peak appears at high E/N for 2-fluoroaniline and 4-fluoroaniline for the first time in reported literature. As observed by HiKE-IMS-MS, the new third peak is also protonated showing that the para-protonated aniline and resulting fragment ion, molecular ion aniline, can be fully separated in the mobility domain for the first time. The appearance of the third peak is only possible due to the increased separation of the other two peaks within the HiKE-IMS.
