Abstract
Negative Ion Fast Atom Bombardment Mass Spectrometry is conducted on potassium pertechnetate evaporated onto a copper probe. The mass spectra of pertechnetate /TcO −4 / reveal the presence of mononuclear and polynuclear technetium oxo species which form general series TcnO −n+1 ,...TcnOn+4 with n=1 to 5. The polynuclear species are believed to be formed via gas phase reactions.
