Electron transfer induced decomposition in potassium–nitroimidazoles collisions: an experimental and theoretical work

Electron transfer induced decomposition mechanism of nitroimidazole and a selection of analogue molecules in collisions with neutral potassium (K) atoms from 10 to 1000 eV have been thoroughly investigated. In this laboratory collision regime, the formation of negative ions was time-of-flight mass a...
