Abstract

AbstractPreliminary results obtained with a home‐made Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometer on the sequential clustering reactions of silane using yttrium cation activation are reported. [YSinH2n]+ and [YSinH2n − 2]+ ions are formed. So far, we have observed these ions up to n = 7, and a sequential clustering mechanism is proposed. The ion structures are characterized by collision‐induced dissociation, and kinetic measurements to determine the formation and decay rates of each ion are performed.
