Matrix Cation
Figure 5. a) Variation of secondary ion enhancements for the protonated molecular ion of DPPC
and d62 DPPC with matrix cation. b) Variation of the ratio of I((cation + D)+ to I(cation + H)+
with matrix cation using the analyte d62 DPPC.
Note: The molecular ion enhancements reported are lower for DPPC and d62 DPPC in these
experiments because the experiments were performed using a slightly different spin coating
conditions. In this case the concentration of DPPC and d62 DPPC were mixed with the ionic
liquid for slightly longer than 5 mins before spin coating (due to problems with the spin coater).
Reference Spectra for the Ionic Liquids Employed in this Study
All ionic liquids were characterized using 1H NMR spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy and TOF
SIMS. The spectra are shown below in the following order. For each ionic liquid the positive
mass spectrum will be first, followed by the negative mass spectrum, and the IR spectrum. On
the second page will be the 1H NMR spectra showing the proton shift. The ionic liquids are
ordered alphabetically by acronym.
