A fluorination method for measuring the 13C‐13C isotopologue of C2 molecules

Abstract: Rationale: Doubly substituted isotope species ("clumped" isotopes) can provide insights into the biogeochemical history of a molecule, including its temperature of formation and/or its (bio)synthetic pathway. Here, we propose a new fluorination method for the measurement of 13 C-13 C species in C 2 molecules using a conventional isotope ratio mass spectrometer. Target molecules include ethane, ethene and ethanol.Methods: 13 C-13 C isotope species in C 2 molecules were measured as C 2 F 6 using a conventional i… Show more

“…Symbols are the same as shown in the legend of panel b . Grey circles denote bio-ethanol from three plants: the C3-type, the C4-type, and the Crassulacean Acid Metabolism (CAM) 19 . Light blue triangles represent ethene (C 2 H 4 ) produced by propane pyrolysis (see Methods).…”

“…Further studies should include culture experiments with different substrates and electron acceptors as well as the analysis of the ion concentrations in the samples (especially sulfate, nitrate and iron species) to determine their role in hydrocarbon production and consumption. Finally, the study should be pursued including newly developed isotopologue measurements such as the 13 C− 13 C isotopologue of ethane [ 17 , 18 , 47 ] and the 13 CH 3 D and CH 2 D 2 isotopologues of methane [ 14 , 15 , 34 , 48 ]. These new tracers are currently used to understand the sources and sinks of hydrocarbons.…”

“…Isotopologues are molecules that differ in the number and/or position of isotope substitution [ 11 , 12 ]. These include multiply substituted isotope species such as 13 C H 3 D and CH 2 D 2 for methane [ 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 ], 13 C H 3 - 13 C H 3 for ethane [ 17 , 18 ], as well as position-specific isotopologues such as 13 C H 3 -CH 2 -CH 3 and CH 3 - 13 C H 2 CH 3 of propane [ 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 ]. The latter approach has proven particularly useful for the detection of hydrocarbon anaerobic oxidation in natural gas basins [ 23 ].…”
