Time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS) performs surface sensitive analysis of the elemental and molecular composition of solids. TOFSIMS is a relatively new embodiment of static secondary ion mass spectrometry (SSIMS) in which the dose of primary ions incident on the surface is typically less than 1012 ions/cm2. Since typical solid surfaces have an atomic density of 1015 atoms/cm2, this primary ion dose nominally removes less than 0.1% of a monolayer. Hence, SIMS analyses performed under these static conditions represent near surface analysis in which secondary ions are produced from the top few monolayers of the surface. The actual sampling depth is determined by the primary ion momentum, angle of incidence and chemistry of the surface. Since low dose primary ions cause minimal perturbation of the chemistry of the solid surface, SSIMS analyses often produce molecular or pseudo-molecular ions characteristic of the chemical composition of the surface. Thus, molecular ions or structurally significant fragment ions are often observed in SSIMS analyses of surfaces containing inorganic and organic residues, polymers surfaces, coatings, and biological materials such as tissues and membranes.

Liquid secondary ion mass spectrometry (LSIMS) and collision-induced dissociation (CID) were used for the characterization of sulfonamide derivatives of meso-tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP). The spectra obtained using LSIMS show abundant molecular ions and fragment ions from losses of the sulfonamide moieties. The main fragmentation observed in the LSI mass spectra and in the CID spectra of the protonated or cationized molecules involves the loss of one sulfonamide group. In addition, in the CID spectra of these compounds the fragment ions formed by the elimination of two, three and/or four sulfonamide groups are also observed. The CID spectra of the protonated or cationized molecules of these derivatives do not display the ions formed by the cleavage of the S - N bond which have been reported for other sulfonamide compounds. The LSI mass spectra and CID spectra of sulfonamide derivatives of meso-tetraphenylporphyrin provide an easy and reliable means of identification of the number and nature of sulfonamide groups in the porphyrinic ring.
