Specific Chemical Reactivities of Spatially Separated 3-Aminophenol Conformers with Cold Ca <sup>+</sup> Ions

Specific Chemical Reactivities of Spatially Separated 3-Aminophenol Conformers with Cold Ca <sup>+</sup> Ions

Many molecules exhibit multiple rotational isomers (conformers) that interconvert thermally and are difficult to isolate. Consequently, a precise characterization of their role in chemical reactions has proven challenging. We have probed the reactivity of specific conformers by using an experimental technique based on their spatial separation in a molecular beam …
