Controlled Synthesis of Polyoxopalladates, and Their Gas-Phase Fragmentation Study by Electrospray Ionization Tandem Mass Spectrometry

Invited for the cover of this issue is the group of Changwen Hu at the Beijing Institute of Technology, China. The cover image shows the most recent developments in the synthesis and study of the gas‐phase fragmentation of new polyoxopalladates. We investigated, for the first time, the solution stability and gas‐phase fragmentation of polyoxopalladates with ESI tandem mass spectrometry, which may help us to reveal the dissociation chemistry and the feasible catalytic mechanism of these noble‐metal clusters...
