Conformational and state-specific effects in reactions of 2,3-dibromobutadiene with Coulomb-crystallized calcium ions
Ardita Kilaj, Silvan Käser, Jia Wang +7
Recent advances in experimental methodology enabled studies of the quantum-state and conformational dependence of chemical reactions under precisely controlled conditions in the ga…
Conformer-specific polar cycloaddition of dibromobutadiene with trapped propene ions
Ardita Kilaj, Jia Wang, Patrik Stranak +6
Diels-Alder cycloadditions are efficient routes for the synthesis of cyclic organic compounds. There has been a long-standing discussion whether these reactions proceed via stepwis…
Spatial Separation of the Conformers of Methyl Vinyl Ketone
Jia Wang, Ardita Kilaj, Lanhai He +3
Methyl vinyl ketone (CHO) is a volatile, labile organic compound of importance in atmospheric chemistry. We prepared a molecular beam of methyl vinyl ketone with a rotation…
Quantum-chemistry-aided identification, synthesis and experimental validation of model systems for conformationally controlled reaction studies: Separation of the conformers of 2,3-dibromobuta-1,3-diene in the gas phase
Ardita Kilaj, Hong Gao, Diana Tahchieva +6
The Diels-Alder cycloaddition, in which a diene reacts with a dienophile to form a cyclic compound, counts among the most important tools in organic synthesis. Achieving a precise…
Observation of different reactivities of para- and ortho-water towards cold diazenylium ions
Ardita Kilaj, Hong Gao, Daniel Rösch +3
Water, HO, is one of the fundamental molecules in chemistry, biology and astrophysics. It exists as two distinct nuclear-spin isomers, para- and ortho-water, which do not inter…
