Qualitative comparison between the quantum calculations and electrospray mass spectra o complexes of polyammonium macrotricyclic ligands with dicarboxylic acids

  • Published:
Journal of the American Society for Mass Spectrometry

Abstract

The host—guest interactions play a very important role in chemical and biological processes. It is therefore important to be able to characterize these complexes. Electrospray mass spectrometry can be used to characterize the complex formation. It provides information on the mass and the charge of these ionic complexes. In this article, we show that the use of ab initio and semiempirical calculations, in addition to the results obtained by electrospray mass spectrometry, reveal to be a promising tool for the study of these noncovalent complexes. In this article, host—guest complexes formed by macropolycyclic polyammonium host molecules and dicarboxylic acids are studied.
