    Ammonium ion adduct molecules [M+NH4]+ that are produced in positive Direct Analysis in Real Time (DART) ionization mass spectrometry were examined using a selected set of compounds. The [M+NH4]+/[M+H]+ relative intensity ratio was dependent on the proton affinity (PA) of the compounds and ammonia (PA 846 kJ/mol). Ar-DART mass spectra of acetophenone (PA 850 kJ/mol) showed [M+D]+ and [M+ND4]+ ions. This observation suggests that hydrogen-bonded complexes between an ammonium ion ND4+ and an acetophenone molecule M initially formed an excited complex [M****D****ND3]+*, after which, some of the complexes then collapsed into [M+D]+. These results indicate that the mechanism responsible for the formation of [M+NH4]+ ion under ammonia chemical ionization and DART ionization is similar irrespectively of the compound under investigation.
