Collaboration
Christian AlcarazLaboratoire Chimie-Physique, Univ. Paris-Sud, Orsay, FranceThis cooperation provides access to the CERISES apparatus which is a unique set-up for sophisticated photoionization experiments using VUV synchrotron radiation of the European multiuser facility. SOLEIL. For an example, see: "Revision of the second ionization energy of toluene"; J. Roithová, D. Schröder, J. Loos, H. Schwarz, H.-C. Jankowiak, R. Berger, R. Thissen, O. Dutuit; J. Chem. Phys. 2005, 122, 94306. |

Daniela AscenziDepartment of Physics, Univ. di Trento, Trento, ItalyThe Trento group and the Prague team cooperate since several years on various topics of ion chemistry, ranging from small molecular dications to processes in the earth's and extraterrestrial atmospheres. Just recently, the cooperation has received official approvement by a joint research grant form the Czech and Italian Academies of Sciences. In addition to the laboratory studies in both groups, the collaboration offers access to the synchrotron facility ELETTRA. For an example, see: "Energetics of fragmentation of indene dication from photoionization experiments"; J. Roithová, J. Žabka, D. Ascenzi, P. Franceschi, C.L. Ricketts, D. Schröder; Chem. Phys. Lett. 2006, 423, 254. |

Philippe MaitreLaboratoire Chimie-Physique, Univ. Paris-Sud, Orsay, FranceIn this collaboration, studies at the infrared laser center CLIO provide unique spectroscopic information about the properties of gaseous ions. The Prague team has used CLIO already several times and also received beam-time for a measuring campaign in 2007. For an example, see: "Dissociation routes of protonated toluene probed by infrared spectroscopy in the gas phase"; D. Schröder, H. Schwarz, P. Milko, J. Roithová; J. Phys. Chem. A 2006, 110, 8346. |

Mirjana Eckart-MaksicDOCB, Ruder-Boskovic Institute, Zagreb, CroatiaIn a recently initiated scientific collaboration together with Prof. H. Schwarz, Berlin, the proton affinities of superbases and the redox behavior of strained phenols are examined by experimental and theoretical means. The Croation side is engaged in the synthesis of appropriate precursor compounds and performs high-level theoretical studies, and the Czech team performs experimental measurements using tandem mass spectrometry. |

Joachim SauerInstitut für Chemie, Humboldt Universität Berlin, Berlin, GermanyThe Prague team is engaged in several joint projects concerning vanadium-oxide catalysts with Prof. Sauer, who serves as the coordinator of the prestigious and extremely successful Sonderforschungsbereich 546. In the context of the SFB 546, quite a number of joint publications have emerged, mostly dealing with experimental studies of the gas-phase reactions of vanadium-oxide cluster ions. For an example, see: "Thermal methane activation by tetranuclear V4O10+: From a 'Holy Grail' to an achievable goal?"; S. Feyel, J. Döbler, D. Schröder, J. Sauer, H. Schwarz; Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2006, 45, 4681. |

Helmut SchwarzInstitut für Chemie, Technische Universität Berlin, Berlin, GermanyA collaboration contract between the Prague team and the group in Berlin enables to perform joint experimental and theoretical studies in all areas of gas-phase ion chemistry. Inter alia, the collaboration provides the Prague team with access to a Fourier-transform mass spectrometer and a large-scale sector-field instrument. For an example, see: "An experimental study of the mechanism for the combined C-H and C-O bond activation of dimethylether by bare Fe+ ions"; S. LeCaer, H. Mestdagh, D. Schröder, W. Zummack, H. Schwarz; Int. J. Mass Spectrom., 2006, 255/256, 239. |
