title: Simultaneous acquisition of elemental, fragmental, and molecular information on organometallic compounds.
abstract: A novel method for obtaining elemental, fragmental, and molecular information of organometallic compounds has been developed using high irradiance laser induced time-of-flight mass spectrometry (LI-TOFMS) with a buffer-gas-assisted ion source. This technique permits direct and matrix-free analysis of solid analyte with minimal sample preparation. In addition, it shows special advantages in integrated acquisition of elemental, fragmental, and molecular information from a single target, on the basis of which identification of organometallic complexes is simplified and expedited.
