•Adapted from Lai-Sheng Wang’s H2 tagging instrument
•Paul trap interfaced to our standard TOF experiment.
•Molecular H2 tag, analogous to Ar tag in previous predissociation experiments.
•We have interfaced our Ar tagging, TOF instrument to a new electrospray ionization source

The Diphenylacetylene Scaffold
• Rigid scaffold limits conformational complexity
• Creates specific acceptor-donor interactions
• An ideal molecular switch backbone that responds with a conformation switch
