Coinage-Metal Mediated Ring Opening of cis-1,2-Dimethoxycyclopropane: Trends from the Gold, Copper, and Silver Fischer Carbene Bond Strength.

N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) supported coinage metal cations proved to react in the gas phase with the electron-rich cis-l,2-dimethoxycydopropane. Upon Collision Induced Dissociation (CID), several spectrometric fragment-ion signals were observed, one corresponding to the recovery of the bare cation...
