An electrospray ionization source for the investigation of thermally initiated reactions.
An electrospray ionization source for mass spectrometry is described, which allows one to heat the spray capillary. Thermal dissociation of the trityl dimer 1 and tetra(p-anisyl)hydrazine (3) have been investigated, operating the ESI source as electrolytic cell to ionize neutral species, e.g. the trityl radical 2.
