Periodic trends in gas‐phase oxidation and hydrogenation reactions of lanthanides and 5d transition metal cations
P. B. Armentrout
Abstract
Of the many publications coming from the laboratory of Diethard K. Bohme, among the most valuable were the surveys of reactivity throughout the periodic table as studied using selected ion flow tube (SIFT) mass spectrometry. In all cases, quantitative rate constants at 295 K and 0.35 Torr of He were obtained for metal cations generated by an inductively coupled plasma (ICP). This source creates ions at a temperature characterized as 5500 K. Here, it was believed that radiative relaxation and interactions with the flow gases would rapidly deplete most excited electronic states of the metal cations, although this is unknown
