The stability and structure of non-covalent complexes of various peptides contatining basic amino acid residues (Arg, Lys) with metalloporphyrins were studied in a quadrupole ion trap mass spectrometer. The complexes of heme and three other metalloporphyrins with a variety of basic peptides and model systems were formed via electrospray ionization (ESI) and their stability was probed by energy-variable collision-induced dissociation (CID). A linear dependence for basic peptides and model compounds/metalloporphyrin complexes was observed in the plots of stability versus degrees of freedom and was used to evaluate relative bond strength. These results were then compared with previous data obtained for complexes of metalloporphyrins with His-containing peptides and peptides containing no basic amino acids. The binding strengths of Lys-containing peptide complexes in the gas phase was found to be almost as strong as that of Arg-containing complexes. Both systems showed stronger binding than His-containing peptides studied previously. To probe the structure of Arg and Lys non-covalent complexes (charge solvation versus salt bridges), two techniques, CID and ion–molecule reactions, were used. CID experiments indicate that the gas-phase complexes are most likely formed by charge solvation of the central metal ion in the metalloporphyrin by basic side chains of Arg or Lys. Results from the ion–molecule reaction studies are consistent with the charge solvation structure as well.

Flowing afterglow measurements are reported which provide rate constants and product identifications at 298 ± 2 K for the gas-phase reactions of OH− with CH3OH, C2H5OH, CH3OCH3, CH2O, CH3CHO, CH3COCH3, CH2CO, HCOOH, HCOOCH3, CH2=C=CH2, CH3—C≡CH, and C6H5CH3. The main channels observed were proton transfer and solvation of the OH−. Hydration with one molecule of H2O was observed either to reduce the rate slightly and lead to products which are the hydrated analogues of the "nude" reaction, or to stop the reaction completely, k ≤ 10−12 cm3 molecule−1 s−1. The reaction of OH−•H2O with CH3—C≡CH showed an uncertain intermediate behaviour.

Rate constants measured with the flowing afterglow technique at 298 ± 2 K are reported for the proton-transfer reactions of H3O+ with CH2O, CH3CHO, (CH3)2CO, HCOOH, CH3COOH, HCOOCH3, CH3OH, C2H5OH, (CH3)2O, and CH2CO. Dissociative proton-transfer was observed only with CH3COOH. The rate constants are compared with the predictions of various theories for ion–molecule collisions. The protonation is discussed in terms of the energetics and mechanisms of various modes of dissociation.
