Hydride generation (HG) coupled to cryotrapping was employed to introduce, separately and with high selectivity, four gaseous arsanes into a direct analysis in real time source for high-resolution mass spectrometry (DART-HR-MS). The arsanes, i.e., arsane (AsH3), methylarsane (CH3AsH2), dimethylarsane ((CH3)(2)AsH), and trimethylarsane ((CH3)(3)As), were formed under HG conditions that were close to those typically used for analytical purposes. Arsenic containing ion species formed during ambient ionization in the DART were examined both in the positive and negative ion modes. It was clearly demonstrated that numerous arsenic ion species originated in the DART source that did not accurately reflect their origin. Pronounced oxidation, hydride abstraction, methyl group(s) loss, and formation of oligomer ions complicate the identification of the original species in both modes of detection, leading to potential misinterpretation. Suitability of the use of the DART source for identification of arsenic species in multiphase reaction systems comprising HG is discussed.
