Abstract
This work presents a benchtop method for collecting the room temperature gas phase infrared (IR) action spectra of protonated amino acids and their isomers. The adopted setup uses a minimally modified commercial electrospray ionization linear ion trap mass spectrometer (ESI-LIT-MS) coupled to a broadband continuous wave (cw) quantum cascade laser (QCL) source. This approach leverages messenger assisted action spectroscopic techniques using water-tagged molecular ions with complex formation, irradiation, and subsequent analysis, all taking place within a single linear ion trap stage. This configuration thus circumvents the use of multiple mass selection and analysis stages, cryogenic buffer cells, and complex high-power laser systems typically called upon to execute these techniques. The benchtop action spectrometer is used to collect the 935-1600 cm-1 (6.2-10.7 μm) IR action spectrum of a collection of amino acids and a dipeptide with results cross referenced against literature examples obtained with a free electron laser source. Recorded IR spectra are used for the analysis of binary mixture samples composed of constitutional isomers α-alanine and β-alanine with ratios determined to ∼4% measurement uncertainty without the aid of a front-end separation stage. This turn-key QCL-based approach is a major step in showing the viability of tag-based action spectroscopic techniques for use in future in situ planetary science sensors and general analytical applications.

Reconstructing the infrared spectrum of a peptide from representative conformers of the full canonical ensemble. Commun Chem 2023; 6:46.

Abstract
Leucine enkephalin (LeuEnk), a biologically active endogenous opioid pentapeptide, has been under intense investigation because it is small enough to allow efficient use of sophisticated computational methods and large enough to provide insights into low-lying minima of its conformational space. Here, we reproduce and interpret experimental infrared (IR) spectra of this model peptide in gas phase using a combination of replica-exchange molecular dynamics simulations, machine learning, and ab initio calculations. In particular, we evaluate the possibility of averaging representative structural contributions to obtain an accurate computed spectrum that accounts for the corresponding canonical ensemble of the real experimental situation. Representative conformers are identified by partitioning the conformational phase space into subensembles of similar conformers. The IR contribution of each representative conformer is calculated from ab initio and weighted according to the population of each cluster. Convergence of the averaged IR signal is rationalized by merging contributions in a hierarchical clustering and the comparison to IR multiple photon dissociation experiments. The improvements achieved by decomposing clusters containing similar conformations into even smaller subensembles is strong evidence that a thorough assessment of the conformational landscape and the associated hydrogen bonding is a prerequisite for deciphering important fingerprints in experimental spectroscopic data.

Abstract
This review is devoted to ion spectroscopy studies of complexes relevant for the understanding of methane activation with metal ions and clusters. Methane activation starts with the formation of a complex with a metal ion. The degree of the interaction between an intact methane molecule and the ion can be monitored by the perturbations of C-H stretch vibrations in the methane molecule. Binding mediated by the electrostatic interaction results in a η3 type coordination of methane. In contrast, binding governed by orbital interactions results in a η2 type coordination of methane. We further review the spectroscopic characterization of activation products of metal-methane reactions, such as the metal-carbene and carbyne products resulting from the interaction of selected 5d metals with methane. The focus of recent research in the field has shifted towards the investigation of interactions between methane and metal clusters. We show examples highlighting that metal clusters can be more reactive in methane activation reactions.

Abstract
The sulfonamide–zinc ion interaction, performing a key role in various biological contexts, is the focus of the present study, with the aim of elucidating ligation motifs in zinc complexes of sulfa drugs, namely sulfadiazine (SDZ) and sulfathiazole (STZ), in a perturbation-free environment. To this end, an approach is exploited based on mass spectrometry coupled with infrared multiple photon dissociation (IRMPD) spectroscopy backed by quantum chemical calculations. IR spectra of Zn(H2O+SDZ−H)+ and Zn(H2O+STZ−H)+ ions are consistent with a three-coordinate zinc complex, where ZnOH+ binds to the uncharged sulfonamide via N(heterocycle) and O(sulfonyl) donor atoms. Alternative prototropic isomers Zn(OH2)(SDZ−H)+ and Zn(OH2)(STZ−H)+ lie 63 and 26 kJ mol−1 higher in free energy, respectively, relative to the ground state Zn(OH)(SDZ)+ and Zn(OH)(STZ)+ species and do not contribute to any significant extent in the sampled population.

Abstract
This perspective gives an overview of the action spectroscopy methods for measurements of electronic, vibrational, and rotational spectra of mass-selected ions in the gas phase. We classify and give a short overview of the existing experimental approaches in this field. There is currently a plethora of names used for, essentially, the same techniques. Hence within this overview, we scrutinized the notations and suggested terms to be generally used. The selection was either driven by making the name unique and straightforward or the term being the most broadly used one. We believe that a simplification and a unification of the notation in ion spectroscopy can make this field better accessible for experts outside the mass spectrometry community where the applications of gas-phase action ion spectroscopy can make a large impact.

Abstract
We hereby review molecular dynamics simulations for anharmonic gas phase spectroscopy and provide some of our opinions of where the field is heading. With these new directions, the theoretical IR/Raman spectroscopy of large (bio)-molecular systems will be more easily achievable over longer time-scale MD trajectories for an increase in accuracy of the MD-IR and MD-Raman calculated spectra. With the new directions presented here, the high throughput 'decoding' of experimental IR/Raman spectra into 3D-structures should thus be possible, hence advancing e.g. the field of MS-IR for structural characterization by spectroscopy. We also review the assignment of vibrational spectra in terms of anharmonic molecular modes from the MD trajectories, and especially introduce our recent developments based on Graph Theory algorithms. Graph Theory algorithmic is also introduced in this review for the identification of the molecular 3D-structures sampled over MD trajectories.

Abstract
The structures of proton-bound complexes of 5,7-dimethoxy-4H-chromen-4-one (1) and basic amino acids (AAs), namely, histidine (His) and lysine (Lys), have been examined by means of mass spectrometry coupled with IR ion spectroscopy and quantum chemical calculations. This selection of systems is based on the fact that 1 represents a portion of glabrescione B, a natural small molecule of promising antitumor activity, while His and Lys are protein residues lining the cavity of the alleged receptor binding site. These species are thus a model of the bioactive adduct, although clearly the isolated state of the present study bears little resemblance to the complex biological environment. A common feature of [1+AA+H]+ complexes is the presence of a protonated AA bound to neutral 1, in spite of the fact that the gas-phase basicity of 1 is comparable to those of Lys and His. The carbonyl group of 1 acts as a powerful hydrogen-bond acceptor. Within [1+AA+H]+ the side-chain substituents (imidazole group for His and terminal amino group for Lys) present comparable basic properties to those of the α-amino group, taking part to a cooperative hydrogen-bond network. Structural assignment, relying on the comparative analysis of the infrared multiple photon dissociation (IRMPD) spectrum and calculated IR spectra for the candidate geometries, derives from an examination over two frequency ranges: 900-1800 and 2900-3700 cm-1 . Information gained from the latter one proved especially valuable, for example, pointing to the contribution of species characterized by an unperturbed carboxylic OH or imidazole NH stretching mode.

Abstract
Cyclodextrins (CDs) have drawn a lot of attention from the scientific communities as a model system for host–guest chemistry and also due to its variety of applications in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, food, textile, separation science, and essential oil industries. The formation of the inclusion complexes enables these applications in the condensed phases, which have been confirmed by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, X-ray crystallography, and other methodologies. The advent of soft ionization techniques that can transfer the solution-phase noncovalent complexes to the gas phase has allowed for extensive examination of these complexes and provides valuable insight into the principles governing the formation of gaseous noncovalent complexes. As for the CDs’ host–guest chemistry in the gas phase, there has been a controversial issue as to whether noncovalent complexes are inclusion conformers reflecting the solution-phase structure of the complex or not. In this review, the basic principles governing CD’s host–guest complex formation will be described. Applications and structures of CDs in the condensed phases will also be presented. More importantly, the experimental and theoretical evidence supporting the two opposing views for the CD–guest structures in the gas phase will be intensively reviewed. These include data obtained via mass spectrometry, ion mobility measurements, infrared multiphoton dissociation (IRMPD) spectroscopy, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations.

Abstract
![]()
Gas-phase, double
resonance IR spectroscopy has proven to be an
excellent approach to obtain structural information on peptides ranging
from single amino acids to large peptides and peptide clusters. In
this review, we discuss the state-of-the-art of infrared action spectroscopy
of peptides in the far-IR and THz regime. An introduction to the field
of far-IR spectroscopy is given, thereby highlighting the opportunities
that are provided for gas-phase research on neutral peptides. Current
experimental methods, including spectroscopic schemes, have been reviewed.
Structural information from the experimental far-IR spectra can be
obtained with the help of suitable theoretical approaches such as
dynamical DFT techniques and the recently developed Graph Theory.
The aim of this review is to underline how the synergy between far-IR
spectroscopy and theory can provide an unprecedented picture of the
structure of neutral biomolecules in the gas phase. The far-IR signatures
of the discussed studies are summarized in a far-IR map, in order
to gain insight into the origin of the far-IR localized and delocalized
motions present in peptides and where they can be found in the electromagnetic
spectrum.

Abstract
Infrared multiple photon dissociation (IRMPD) spectroscopy allows for the derivation of the vibrational fingerprint of molecular ions under tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) conditions. It provides insight into the nature and localization of posttranslational modifications (PTMs) affecting single amino acids and peptides. IRMPD spectroscopy, which takes advantage of the high sensitivity and resolution of MS/MS, relies on a wavelength specific fragmentation process occurring on resonance with an IR active vibrational mode of the sampled species and is well suited to reveal the presence of a PTM and its impact in the molecular environment. IRMPD spectroscopy is clearly not a proteomics tool. It is rather a valuable source of information for fixed wavelength IRMPD exploited in dissociation protocols of peptides and proteins. Indeed, from the large variety of model PTM containing amino acids and peptides which have been characterized by IRMPD spectroscopy, specific signatures of PTMs such as phosphorylation or sulfonation can be derived. High throughput workflows relying on the selective fragmentation of modified peptides within a complex mixture have thus been proposed. Sequential fragmentations can be observed upon IR activation, which do not only give rise to rich fragmentation patterns but also overcome low mass cutoff limitations in ion trap mass analyzers. Laser-based vibrational spectroscopy of mass-selected ions holding various PTMs is an increasingly expanding field both in the variety of chemical issues coped with and in the technological advancements and implementations.

Abstract
Gas-phase conformations of the sodium-cationized forms of the 2'-deoxycytidine and cytidine mononucleotides, [pdCyd+Na]+ and [pCyd+Na]+, are examined by infrared multiple photon dissociation action spectroscopy. Complimentary electronic structure calculations at the B3LYP/6-311+G(2d,2p)//B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p) level of theory provide candidate conformations and their respective predicted IR spectra for comparison across the IR fingerprint and hydrogen-stretching regions. Comparisons of the predicted IR spectra and the measured infrared multiple photon dissociation action spectra provide insight into the impact of sodium cationization on intrinsic mononucleotide structure. Further, comparison of present results with those reported for the sodium-cationized cytidine nucleoside analogues elucidates the impact of the phosphate moiety on gas-phase structure. Across the neutral, protonated, and sodium-cationized cytidine mononucleotides, a preference for stabilization of the phosphate moiety and nucleobase orientation is observed, although the details of this stabilization differ with the state of cationization. Several low-energy conformations of [pdCyd+Na]+ and [pCyd+Na]+ involving several different orientations of the phosphate moiety and sugar puckering modes are observed experimentally.

Abstract
Chiral differentiation of protonated isoleucine (Ile) using permethylated β-cyclodextrin (perCD) in the gas-phase was studied using infrared multiple photon dissociation (IRMPD) spectroscopy, ion-mobility, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The gaseous protonated non-covalent complexes of perCD and d-Ile or l-Ile produced by electrospray ionization were interrogated by laser pulses in the wavenumber region of 2650 to 3800 cm-1. The IRMPD spectra showed remarkably different IR spectral features for the d-Ile or l-Ile and perCD non-covalent complexes. However, drift-tube ion-mobility experiments provided only a small difference in their collision cross-sections, and thus a limited separation of the d- and l-Ile complexes. DFT calculations revealed that the chiral distinction of the d- and l-complexes by IRMPD spectroscopy resulted from local interactions of the protonated Ile with perCD. Furthermore, the theoretical results showed that the IR absorption spectra of higher energy conformers (by ∼13.7 kcal mol-1) matched best with the experimentally observed IRMPD spectra. These conformers are speculated to be formed from kinetic-trapping of the solution-phase conformers. This study demonstrated that IRMPD spectroscopy provides an excellent platform for differentiating the subtle chiral difference of a small amino acid in a cyclodextrin-complexation environment; however, drift-tube ion-mobility did not have sufficient resolution to distinguish the chiral difference.

Abstract
Modifications to a Paul-type quadrupole ion trap mass spectrometer providing optical access to the trapped ion cloud as well as hardware and software for coupling to a table-top IR optical parametric oscillator laser (OPO) are detailed. Critical experimental parameters for infrared multiple photon dissociation (IRMPD) on this instrument are characterized. IRMPD action spectra, collected in the hydrogen-stretching region with this instrument, complemented by spectra in the IR fingerprint region acquired at the FELIX facility, are employed to characterize the structures of the protonated forms of 2-thiouridine, [s2Urd+H]+, and 4-thiouridine, [s4Urd+H]+. The measured spectra are compared with predicted linear IR spectra calculated at the B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p) level of theory to determine the conformers populated in the experiments. This comparison indicates that thiation at the 2- or 4-positions shifts the protonation preference between the 2,4-H tautomer and 4-protonation in opposite directions versus canonical uridine, which displays a roughly equal preference for the 2,4-H tautomer and O4 protonation. As found for canonical uridine, protonation leads to a mixture of conformers exhibiting C2'-endo and C3'-endo sugar puckering with an anti nucleobase orientation being populated for both 2- and 4-thiated uridine.

Abstract
Vibrational spectra of protonated tryptophan were recorded by predissociation of H2 messenger tags using cryogenic ion traps. We explore the issue of messenger induced spectral changes by solvating TrpH+(H2) n with n = 1-5 to obtain single photon vibrational spectra of TrpH+ and of its partly deuterated isotopomer in the spectral region of 800-4400 cm-1. Depending on the number of messenger molecules, the spectra of several conformational isomers associated with multiple H2 binding locations along with two natural conformations of TrpH+ were found using the two photon MS3IR2 conformational hole burning method. Most probable messenger positions were established by comparison with predictions from DFT calculations on various candidate structures. Mechanical anharmonicity effects associated with the charged amino group were modeled by Born-Oppenheimer ab initio molecular dynamics. The spectra of TrpH+(H2O) m=1,2, recorded by infrared multiphoton dissociation (IRMPD), reveal broad features in the NH stretching region of the NH3+ group, indicating strong hydrogen bonding in acceptor-donor configuration with the benzene ring for the first water molecule, while the second water appears to attach to a less strongly perturbing site, yielding unique transitions associated with the free OH stretching fundamentals. We discuss the structural deformations induced by the water molecules and compare our results to recent experiments on similar hydrated cationic systems.

Abstract
Linking the intrinsic tertiary structures of biomolecules to their native geometries is a central prerequisite for making gas-phase studies directly relevant to biology. The isolation of molecules in the gas phase eliminates hydrophilic interactions with solvents, to some extent mimicking a hydrophobic environment. Intrinsic structures therefore may resemble native ones for peptides that in vivo reside in a hydrophobic environment (e.g., binding pockets of receptors). In this study, we investigate doubly protonated neurokinin A (NKA) using IR-UV double resonance cold ion spectroscopy and find only five conformers of this decapeptide in the gas phase. In contrast, NMR data show that in aqueous solutions, NKA exhibits high conformational heterogeneity, which reduces to a few well-defined structures in hydrophobic micelles. Do the gas-phase structures of NKA resemble these native structures? The IR spectra reported here allow the validation of future structural calculations that may answer this question.

Abstract
The visible photodissociation mechanisms of QSY7-tagged peptides of increasing size have been investigated by coupling a mass spectrometer and an optical parametric oscillator laser beam. The experiments herein consist of energy resolved collision- and laser-induced dissociation measurements on the chromophore-tagged peptides. The results show that fragmentation occurs by similar channels in both activation methods, but that the branching ratios are vastly different. Observation of a size-dependent minimum laser pulse energy required to induce fragmentation, and collisional cooling rates in time resolved experiments show that laser-induced dissociation occurs through the absorption of multiple photons by the chromophore and the subsequent heating through vibrational energy redistribution. The differences in branching ratio between collision- and laser-induced dissociation can then be understood by the highly anisotropic energy distribution following absorption of a photon.

Abstract
The redox activity of cysteine sulfur allows numerous post-translational protein modifications involved in the oxidative regulation of metabolism, in metal binding, and in signal transduction. A combined approach based on infrared multiple photon dissociation spectroscopy at the Centre Laser Infrarouge d'Orsay (CLIO) free electron laser facility, calculations of IR frequencies, and finite temperature ab initio molecular dynamics simulations has been employed to characterize the gas-phase structures of deprotonated cysteine sulfenic, sulfinic, and sulfonic acids, [cysSOx ]- (x=1, 2, 3, representing the number of S-bound oxygen atoms), which are key intermediates in the redox-switching chemistry of proteins. The ions show different structural motifs owing to preferential binding of the proton to either the carboxylate or sulfur-containing group. Due to the decreasing basicity of the sulfenic, sulfinic, and sulfonic terminals, the proton bound to SO- in [cysSO]- migrates to the carboxylate in [cysSO3 ]- , whereas it turns out to be shared in [cysSO2 ]- . Evidence is gathered that a mixture of close-lying low-energy conformers is sampled for each cysteine oxo form in a Paul ion trap at room temperature.

Abstract
Nitrogen bases containing one or more pushing amino-group(s) directly linked to a pulling cyano, imino, or phosphoimino group, as well as those in which the pushing and pulling moieties are separated by a conjugated spacer (C═X)n, where X is CH or N, display an exceptionally strong basicity. The n-π conjugation between the pushing and pulling groups in such systems lowers the basicity of the pushing amino-group(s) and increases the basicity of the pulling cyano, imino, or phosphoimino group. In the gas phase, most of the so-called push-pull nitrogen bases exhibit a very high basicity. This paper presents an analysis of the exceptional gas-phase basicity, mostly in terms of experimental data, in relation with structure and conjugation of various subfamilies of push-pull nitrogen bases: nitriles, azoles, azines, amidines, guanidines, vinamidines, biguanides, and phosphazenes. The strong basicity of biomolecules containing a push-pull nitrogen substructure, such as bioamines, amino acids, and peptides containing push-pull side chains, nucleobases, and their nucleosides and nucleotides, is also analyzed. Progress and perspectives of experimental determinations of GBs and PAs of highly basic compounds, termed as "superbases", are presented and benchmarked on the basis of theoretical calculations on existing or hypothetical molecules.

Abstract
The detailed chemical information contained in the vibrational spectrum of a cryogenically cooled analyte ion would, in principle, make infrared (IR) ion spectroscopy a gold standard technique for molecular identification in mass spectrometry. Despite this immense potential, there are considerable challenges in both instrumentation and methodology to overcome before the technique is analytically useful. Here, we discuss the promise of IR ion spectroscopy for small molecule analysis in the context of metabolite identification. Experimental strategies to address sensitivity constraints, poor overall duty cycle, and speed of the experiment are intimately tied to the development of a mass-selective cryogenic trap. Therefore, the most likely avenues for success, in the authors' opinion, are presented here, alongside alternative approaches and some thoughts on data interpretation.

Abstract
The gas phase is an artificial environment for biomolecules that has gained much attention both experimentally and theoretically due to its unique characteristic of providing a clean room environment for the comparison between theory and experiment. In this review we give an overview mainly on first-principles simulations of isolated peptides and the initial steps of their interactions with ions and solvent molecules: a bottom up approach to the complexity of biological environments. We focus on the accuracy of different methods to explore the conformational space, the connections between theory and experiment regarding collision cross section evaluations and (anharmonic) vibrational spectra, and the challenges faced in this field.
