A Statistical Approach in Predicting the Isotopic Cluster of Complex Species by Mass Spectrometry.
Abstract
The isotopic cluster to be expected for the molecular ion of decachlororuthenocene has been evaluated through a statistical approach. Ruthenium has seven naturally occurring isotopes of mass 96, 98, 99, 100, 101, 102 and 104 having a natural abundance of 5.51%, 1.87%, 12.72%, 12.62%, 17.07%, 31.61% and 18.58%, respectively. Chlorine has two isotopes of mass 35 and 37 with a natural abundance of 75.4% and 24.6%, while the two isotopes of carbon of mass 12 and 13 have a natural abundance of 98.89% and 1.11%, respectively. The complete details of the calculations have been incorporated. A graph has been finally drawn after normalizing the above data. The applicability of this method has been discussed. (Author)
