Mass Analysis of Air-Sensitive Samples, Catalysts and Organometallics at the Bench
For full product details and specs, please download our product note featuring the iASAP sample technology:
The Atmospheric Solids Analysis Probe (ASAP™) allows chemists to directly analyze liquid and solid samples by mass spectrometer without the need for sample preparation. The inert ASAP (iASAP) is a modification of this technique, allowing easy sampling of air-sensitive compounds, such as metal catalysts and organometallics, from reactions that are carried out in a glove box or Schlenk line to prevent oxidation. The iASAP probe is designed to provide:
-
- Mass analysis without sample decomposition
- Analysis in < 30 seconds
- Real-time reaction monitoring
- No sample preparation
- Atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI)
Looking for research performed with the iASAP probe? Our latest application note on monitoring reactions of highly air-sensitive compounds features the capability of the Advion expression CMS to confirm the synthesis of two highly air-sensitive compounds via inert sampling. Using the iASAP probe, the sample is contained in an atmosphere of inert gas, preventing decomposition and allowing safe transfer to the mass spec for analysis.
