Gas-phase Ion Chemistry of Hydroxy and Amino-substituted Interstellar Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons and Protonated Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons

The gas-phase ion chemistry of hydroxyl- and amino-substituted polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and their protonated counterparts were studied using mass spectrometry. Ions were generated using an electron ionization (EI) source and the unimolecular chemistry of metastable ions was studied by...
