摘要：

Coordination chemistry is predominantly thought of in terms of compounds prepared and characterized in the condensed phases. The gas phase is just another phase in which coordination chemistry can be observed and studied. Advances in mass spectrometers over the last decades and the use of new ionization techniques, including the use of lasers and electrospray to synthesize the starting materials, allow researchers to better study coordination chemistry (of ions) in the gas phase. This chapter focuses on the reactions of transition metal systems and changes in coordination behavior. Examples from the literature are given.
