Abstract

We present an experimental investigation of glyoxal ion chemistry with H3O+ reagent ion. Glyoxal represent interesting group of volatiles organic compounds with its proton affinity close to proton affinity of water.

Experiments were provided using three different experimental techniques: selected ion flow tube mass spectrometry (SIFT-MS), proton transfer reaction mass spectrometry (PTR-MS) and selected ion flow-drift tube mass spectrometry (SIFDT-MS). The aim of the work is to describe an effect of humidity and electric field on the mentioned ion molecular interaction.

In the study we presented influence of high electric field on ion chemistry as well as the importance of the secondary process.
