Interactions of a nucleoside cytidine with metal ions in water observed through mass spectrometry: Clustering controlled by electrostatic interaction and coordinating interaction
Article Abstract:
The impact of metal ions on the molecular clustering of cytidine in aqueous solution is examined by mass spectrometric analysis of clusters isolated from liquid droplets. In the presence of alkali metal ion or alkaline earth metal ion in solution, cytidine molecules aggregated around these ions through the electrostatic interaction, which is similar to the solvation of ions by solvent molecules.

Unified linear predicting models for the essential reactions of metal ions in aquatic surface systems
Article Abstract:
Three molecular descriptors could be used to establish satisfactory linear free-energy relationships (LFER) allowing the quantitative modeling of essential reactions of metal ions in aquatic and surface systems. This approach could be quite useful in universally elucidating the interrelationship among various chemical reactions of metal ions in aquatic and surface systems.
