We present cryogenic infrared spectra of sodiated beta-cyclodextrin beta-CD + Na, a common cyclic oligosaccharide, and its main dissociation products upon collision-induced dissociation (CID). We characterize the parent ions using high-resolution ion mobility spectrometry and cryogenic infrared action spectroscopy, while the fragments are characterized by their mass and cryogenic infrared spectra. We observe sodium-cationized fragments that differ in mass by 162 u, corresponding to B-n/Z(m) ions. For the m/z 347 product ion, electronic structure calculations are consistent with formation of the lowest energy 2-ketone B-2 ion structure. For the m/z 509 product ion, both the calculated 2-ketone B-3 and the Z(3) structures show similarities with the experimental spectrum. The theoretical structure most consistent with the spectrum of the m/z 671 ions is a slightly higher energy 2-ketone B-4 structure. Overall, the data suggest a consistent formation mechanism for all the observed fragments.
