报告题目：Mass Spectrometric Study of Electrochemistry and Organometallic Chemistry

Electrochemistry coupled with mass spectrometry (EC/MS) is a powerful means for identifying the products or intermediates of electrochemical reactions, which is not only useful for redox reaction mechanism elucidation but also leads to valuable applications in proteomics. The versatility of EC/MS stems from two facts. First, MS can serve as a sensitive and general detector for investigating electrolytic products of proteins. In addition, tandem MS analysis can be used for structural determination based on ion dissociation. Second, electrochemical conversion can improve analyte ionization efficiency or provide desired modification to the analyte prior to MS analysis. Attracted by the complementary nature of these two techniques, the marriage of EC and MS appears quite attractive. In this talk, I will focus on the development of electrochemical mass spectrometry using ambient ionization methods such as desorption electrospray ionization (DESI) and its applications for proteomics study. The study of organometallic reaction mechanism using mass spectrometry will also be presented.
